Editorial Review:
Joan Mitchell is an unhappy housewife pushing 40, who has an uncommunicative husband and a distant 19-year- old daughter. Frustrated at her current situation, Joan seeks solace in witchcraft after visiting a local tarot reader, who inspires Joan to follow her own path. After dabbling in witchcraft, Joan, believing herself to have become a real witch, withdraws into a fantasy world until the line between fantasy and reality becomes blurred and eventually tragedy results.

Rating: - Two strange films by George A. Romero
This DVD features the second and third films by the "horror director" George A. Romero. Nevertheless, none of each is really horror oriented. There's Always Vanilla is a romantic drama depicting the 70's atmosphere, whereas Season of the Witch is a housewife portrait. Both of them are difficult to watch, but necessary for die hard Romero fans. The quality of the image and the sound is good on There's Always Vanilla, whereas on Season of the Witch, it's not clean at all. By the way, although the title ... Read More

Season of the Witch (1973) -Side A-
Also known as "Jack's Wife" and "Hungry Wives".
Forget this low-budget film which really makes no sense at all. Notable only for Jan White and Ray Laine.
Will Debra Messing or Marilu Henner do a remake?

There's Always Vanilla (1971) -Side B-
This film stars Raymond Laine and Judith Ridley (Streiner) {Night of the Living Dead 1968}. No, this film is not The Red Balloon.

Rating:  - Regarding there's always vanilla
I haven't seen Season of the Witch or this DVD version of There's always Vanilla. I do have a VHS of TAV and it's one of my favorite movies. It's hard to say why I like it but it is a very interesting experience. No other movie I've seen sums up the late 60s early 70s like TAV. The bad picture quality really adds to the feeling of the times and its like opening up a time capsule. The story line is a very real example of what the sexual revolution did to people's relationships. Free sex, abortions, illegitimate ... Read More
Rating: - Anchor Bay Botch Job
This is simply a statement on the dvd itself and not on the film/films included.Anchor Bay as of recently has been turning out garbage transphers and doing bothched jobs as far as presentation goes.The box states Anamorphic Widescreen and this is clearly hard matted.It is getting hard in todays age to support a company that will not give film its proper respect.Wait till a better DVD surfaces or buy at your own risk.
Rating: - One of my Favorites
This movie has been a favorite of mine for many many years. Origionaly released under the title of "Jacks Wife" this movie continues to be great after all this time. This movie, though slow to get to the topic, is based on traditional witchcraft (NOT WICCA) but witchcraft as presented in Paul Huson's 70's Book, Mastering Witchcraft. Each ritual in this bok is taken almost word for word from Mastering Witchcraft. I would highly reccomend this movie for those people who are interested in a true classic and not just ... Read More
