About The Witching
This is Gordon's re-edit of his 1972 horror film Necromancy starring Orson Welles and Pamela Franklin. This version features brand new scenes (mostly to up to exploitation factor) filmed in 1983 and added by Gordon himself. It also features a brand new score and other changes and the whole thing differs greatly from the original 82-minute theatrical version.
Directed by Bert I. Gordon, The Witching leans on a strong ensemble — Orson Welles, Pamela Franklin, Lee Purcell — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 1983.
