"A Miracle of the Inquisition" is a film about the famous Inquisition that took place in the 16th and 17th centuries. Heretics (in essence anyone who did not agree 100% with the Church) were tortured and killed...particularly in Spain and France.
This Georges Méliès film begins with a woman being taken to the dungeon and burned at the stake. She burns up amazingly quickly and then returns as an angel to punish the man who lit her ablaze...with the help of her female friend. It's all amazingly dark...and realistic when the folks are set alight! And, because it's so dark and violent, I must admit it kept my attention and is worth seeing!
