Satanic Sundays: This Is A Unholy Trinity Day!

This week for Satanic Sundays instead choosing six fun sin filled movies to satiate your satanic thirst I have decided to dedicate this post to the power of three! A box set and in this case it is truly an unholy trinity feast-ival! So today why not enjoy this black sabbath of an occasion with these three truly terrible but cheesy good fun flicks that are sure to entertain and yes offend todays modern universal practitioner of these fine old world arts. Today I have chosen The Witchouse Trilogy that focuses on the evil presences of that nasty of witches, Miss Lilith LeFay. These low budget cheesy tales come from one of my favorite studios both in childhood and today- Full Moon.



1. Witchouse (1999)

Lilith LeFay condemned to burn for being a witch is avenged by her ancestor who gathers the descendants of those who sentenced the witch to her fate in order pay back the blood debt. It is a fun and classic low budget ride into horrors that brings the elements of a scary location that you just want to live in with the ever necessary production of demonically possessed partiers used as puppets by evil witches. The story is cool but the delivery is tacky and filled with bad acting. For me it just adds a fun element that makes me want to play a drinking game when I watch this movie. Take a shot every time you recognize a bad line. You will get drunk! This is a cool Halloween movie for those of us you like this style of horror for all it’s cheesy gory fun!

2. Witchouse 2: Blood Coven (2000)

In part two of the Witchouse trilogy Lilith is resurrected by a team of forensic scientist sent to identify and properly replace the remains from an unmarked burial located at the old Witch house in Covington County. Unfortunately for them Lilith manages to infect the lead researcher through genetic means and sets out to create a scene of truly criminal intensity. She systematically takes out the staff causing them to turn to those fun unloving demonic minions causing murder and mayhem. This is only slightly less cheesy than the first film but the set up and ride this film takes you on is just as fun as the first film.

3. Witchouse 3: Demon Fire (2001)

In part three, the final nightmare of this unholy trilogy Lilith’s wrath is felt once more only this time it is jealousy and revenge that brings here back. Two young documentarians decide to make a debunking film on the ancient practice just as on friend comes back to them fleeing from an abusive husband. Things are not as they seem in this final flick. Shot through both stationary camera and video scenes that blend the two mediums somewhat seamlessly this film is super low budget but very entertaining in it’s total cheese fest acting and dialogue. Worse than the second but almost equal to the quality of the first. The story hear those is a cool little “you reap what you sow” story that I found fun to see play out.

You may not like these films or any Full Moon stuff for that matter but for me I take all movies based solely on my expectations for that film. I don’t set out to see Oscar performances on these kinds of film. I choose to watch them for there fun, cheesy, tongue-in-cheek value.  Much like horror should be, under produced and organic but entertaining. Plus demon-witches are just plain fun on film even if they are offensive to the true nature of witchcraft in modern society.
