Witchcraft Through the Ages: The Story of Häxan, the World's Strangest Film, and the Man Who Made It

FAB Press... Witchcraft Through the Ages: The Story of Häxan, the World's Strangest Film, and the Man Who Made It by Jack Stevenson. "...Benjamin Christensen's macabre masterpiece from 1922, Häxan (The Witch), is the first true 'film maudit' (literally a 'cursed film') and can justifiably be considered the world's first cult movie. This taboo-shattering work occupies an exclusive niche in the annals of horror cinema. Greeted by angry protests upon release, it was censored, banned and condemned everywhere."
