  • Thought provoking on one of the darkest chapters in English Social History

    Based on what is known of Mathew Hopkin, the film does a great job of portraying the terrible actions of this criminal person. There is no account of what happened to him. history recounts that he disappeared obviously fleeing from his many aggrieved pursuers.

  • Captivating

    I Dare you to fall asleep watching This Movie... The Witch Finder General is an all True Film It Shows just exactly what Religious Beliefs and Legends Did to The British Isles. For 400 years Women Men and Children in The British Isles were hanged, burned, branded, drowned and beaten to death as Witches because of Religion and Religious People who think Satan is Real. This movie shows exactly how it was in The Brirish Isles Europe and America for over 400 years because of People who think Satan is Real.
