Movie Reviews of Salem Witch Trials featuring Kirstie Alley
Movie Review: We're All Witches...
Summary: 5 Stars
SALEM WITCH TRIALS takes hyper-religiosity / pompous, self-righteousness, and mixes it w/ mass hysteria, paranoia, and ignorance. Toss in huge amounts of superstition and gossip, and you've got a lethal combination! This film shows quite vividly how religion, ANY religion, can never be used as a substitute for government. Like the Taliban today, the Salem Puritans utilized "religious authority" to enable them to destroy those they considered "unclean" or "wicked" (or simply didn't like), while calling their own homicidal insanity, "the will of God". SWT is an excellent portrayal of religion-gone-mad, using one of America's most shameful events as a template. This is a cautionary tale of historic horror. Though a dramatization about what occurred in the early 1690s, it's message certainly resonates in this or any other age. Watch and learn...
Summary of Salem Witch Trials featuring Kirstie Alley
Salem, Massachusetts. A small town?with no clear governing body?became embroiled in a scandal that forever stands as one of the darkest chapters in American history. For those accused of witchcraft by their neighbors and friends, there was little chance of clearing their names; the mass paranoia that ravaged through the community took the lives of 19 innocent men and women. With an all-star cast of Kirstie Alley, Rebecca De Mornay, Kristin Booth, Shirley MacLaine, Peter Ustinov and Alan Bates, Salem Witch Trials dramatically revisits 1692 colonial America and the haunting legacy it holds.Similar DVD Movies
