Coven

About This Movie

Coven (2020) is a blend of modern horror and supernatural themes, featuring five undergrad witches drawn together by their shared ambition to tap into the powers of Ashura. The film captures a certain rawness, the atmosphere is thick with tension, especially during their ritual scenes. There’s a noticeable DIY vibe, with practical effects that give it an intriguing edge—definitely not your polished Hollywood fare, but it adds to the charm. The pacing can feel off at times, but that’s part of its indie spirit. The performances vary, some really shine while others feel a bit stiff, but that adds an interesting layer to the storytelling. It’s distinct in its focus on female friendships and the complex dynamics that arise when ambition meets the supernatural. Worth discussing for sure.
