MARK OF THE WITCH is an independent US horror flick from 1970 that just about gets by despite the entire lack of budget and talent behind the camera. The film follows a bunch of dated college students as they become convinced that one of their peers is the reincarnation of a witch who died some 300 years previously, swearing revenge on her persecutors. It's mainly a static and talky little enterprise, but it does manage to build up a relatively fair head of steam along the way, and the ritualistic moments, although limited, tend to hit home. The spooky storyline brings to mind the likes of CITY OF THE DEAD and the actors certainly work hard to invest in the tale.
