Enough of my rambling. Let’s get on with tonight’s review of Coven of Evil (Not Rated, 100 minutes), a British satanism tale from writer/director Matthew J. Lawrence.
Produced by Macabre Pictures and distributed to DVD by WWMM (Worldwide Multimedia), the film centers on a twenty-something wannabe journalist, Joe (played by John Thacker), living at home with his parents. His only writing credit is an article about Wicca, which gets the attention of a practicing witch, Evie (played by Samantha Moorhouse), who invites Joe to visit her coven in the countryside. With nothing else to do, Joe takes Evie up on her offer.
Shortly after arriving and meeting the coven’s five other members, Joe witness a few freaky things, which includes him being drugged and having a strange sexual encounter during a ritual. He becomes smitten with Evie’s younger sister, Alice (played by Laura Peterson), who isn’t a part of the coven.
To make a long story short, the coven has dark plans for both Joe and Alice.
Final Thoughts
Overall, Coven of Evil is a low-budget horror flick with a few creepy scenes, decent acting, and creative editing. It’s not perfect, but I had a good time watching it.
