I watched this movie hoping that it would give me some feeling of being transported to it's Medievel setting, possibly showing something about what life was like for people in this time and place. Turns out, it was just a lame soap opera.
Some witch hunters are torturing women, accusing them of having done evil, although you get the feeling they are mostly just taking out their frustrations on these girls who wouldn't give them the time of day. Meanwhile, our lead female is having visions of her lover's death, but does not yet see the face of his killer. She makes a deal with the devil to find out who it is, but it is left open-ended if she truly was given a vision, or was just imagining it.
In the end, I didn't care because her choice of revenge turns out to be lame and ineffective. She basically sleeps with the "killer," so that he'll feel morally conflicted. Then they both end up getting burned at the stake. Oh, and while they are burning, a call comes in that something else is going on, so everyone rushes off to handle some other situation. If you're asking yourself, "WTF, this review makes no sense," well, then you you know how I felt watching it. I won't give it a rating of "1" because there wasn't anything in it that really bothered me, but there was absolutely NO moments that I enjoyed or was entertained by either. Some of the other people who left comments on this movie claim that the torture scenes were a highlight, but I thought even those parts were dull.
