Jonathan Romney Screen International Sep 23, 2020
The film is executed with an odd combination of low-budget severity - with much of the action shot in close-ups in the girls' cell and the inquisitorial chamber - and unintentional kitsch. Go to Full Review
Fernanda Solórzano Letras Libres Oct 21, 2021
It's very well written and acted. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Settled in the field of sensory cinema, the film conquers a territory of interest, despite certain extremism when it comes to finding guilty and innocent people in history. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Roger Salvans Fotogramas Mar 25, 2021
3/5
A delirious horror tale, aesthetically connected to the latest contributions to the genre, in which the most disturbing thing is always the daily horror. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Luis Martínez El Mundo (Spain) Mar 25, 2021
The precious tension of each frame is surprising, it enthuses the grave and deep gloom, and discourages the pedestrian ritual of an interpretive verismo as pompous and affected as it is sadly melodramatic. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

3/5
The sense you get watching Coven is that its creators intended very much to shock. Go to Full Review

Robert P @Superbad 2 hrs ago Coven of Sisters is a *4* star Movie! See more Jess waxing maui T @RT10838584 3 days ago I thought this movie was a great get in the Halloween spirit with witches and folklore. I loved the languages and all the characters were great acting. Some parts were a little cheesy but the power of the sisterhood was undeniable. See more Don H @deafmix3 Jan 16, 2026 I came to this with no real expectations, beyond having seen a related film I enjoyed. I am only writing because I think this film is getting the short shrift. I suppose if someone went in looking for a horror movie, they might be disappointed because it is NOT a horror film. It has more in common with The Crucible (the play and the '96 film) than anything else. Similar time frame (17th C.), similar set-up - a realistic portrayal of witch trials. Both films show the insanity (or the mutant repressed sexuality) of the authorities. This IS a horror movie if you count the real life horror of human existence. The acting, from the entire cast, is astounding, particularly the two inquisitors. The setting is legit, down to the use among the girls of Basque language. Basque-looking actresses, also. And the final scene, where the girls perform a black sabbath of their imagination, is insane, down to the music. WAY better than The Witch... See more Kirsty P @RT82315129 Mar 8, 2025 Excellent portrail of the oppression of women during the 1600s. Highlighting the ridiculous accusations by men (and some women), specifically those who belong to catholic church and their desire for ultimate power over unmarried women. See more T T @RT95435478 Mar 5, 2023 The Spanish inquisition was a horrible and barbaric time in human history where many innocent victims were needlessly murdered. That said, this movie was very boring and unnecessarily long. It could have easily been 30 minutes shorter without affecting the plot. After about 40 minutes, I was fed up and was ready to turn it off, but I decided to continue watching it till the end. Don't make the same mistake. See more Louis S @RT02569817 Feb 6, 2023 Bewitching, and wonderfully acted, the movie goes crescendo to a magnificent and mad climax. See more Read all reviews
