Witchcraft IX: Bitter Flesh

About This Movie

Witchcraft IX: Bitter Flesh has this strange, almost dreamlike quality. Will Spanner’s disembodied journey is a bizarre mix of supernatural horror and gritty urban tales, with a hooker who can actually communicate with him adding a unique twist. The pacing feels like a slow burn, lulling you into a sense of eerie calm before the darker elements unfold. You’ve got detectives Lutz and Garner poking around in this mess of ancient Egyptian ties, which adds a layer of intrigue. The practical effects are hit or miss, but they do contribute to that raw, unpolished vibe of 90s horror. Performances are varied—some hit the mark, while others land somewhere else entirely, but it all adds to that strange charm the series is known for.
