The movie's cover was actually the best thing about this movie. And believe you me when I say that I am not returning to attempt watching the last half of "The Winter Witch". Some of us suffered through this ordeal, in some or full extend, so you don't have to. This movie is not something I would recommend for horror fans to waste their time, money or effort on. As for "The Winter Witch" being a horror movie? Well, in the 41 minutes I sat through there wasn't a shred of anything even close to resembling horror, unless you count utter pointlessness and boredom as being horror. I wasn't the least bit impressed by what I witnessed. The acting in the movie, at least in the 41 minutes that I suffered through, was nothing noteworthy. It was just some girls sitting around talking without much of any gusto and without anything interesting to talk about. I kid you not when I say nothing, I mean that literally. In those excrutiatingly long 41 minutes nothing happened in the narrative. I managed to endure 41 minutes of the 82 minute, so I made it halfway through, and then I tossed the towel in the ring. And talk about a swing and a miss from writer and director Richard John Taylor. And it being a horror movie that I hadn't already seen was essentially sufficient to make me sit down and give the movie a chance. Yeah, I hadn't even heard about this 2022 horror movie titled "The Winter Witch" when I stumbled upon it here in 2023, but I have to say that the movie's cover definitely seemed interesting.
