Pros: good video and audio encodes
Cons: generic medieval tale of witches and demons that's tired

Dominic Sena’s Season of the Witch takes what might have been a provocative medieval journey movie and turns it into a generic action picture which makes very little of what could have been its strengths: a fine cast, an unusual time period that hasn’t been overused in the movies, and the possibility for marvelous, magical special effects. Instead the cast is mostly wasted, the time period is mostly thrown away (and the film is filled with anachronisms to boot), and the special effects are some of the cheapest looking seen in many a year, cartoony when they needed to be realistic and eerily gripping. This film is a massive disappointment.
