Review :
Creepy horror film from Larry Buchanan
We all know Larry Buchanan made uncredited remakes of 50's sci-fi films for AIP-TV which were THE EYE CREATURES (1965), MARS NEEDS WOMEN (1966), CREATURE OF DESTRUCTION (1967), and IT'S ALIVE (1968). But, THE NAKED WITCH was Buchanan's first horror film, that he co-directed with producer Claude Alexander, that was released in theatres.
The film begins with a strange prolouge about the history of witches that padds the short running time. The film then moves on with a college student (Robert Short) who travels to the German town Luckenbach, Texas to write a thesis about the Luckenbach Witch. The villagers do not want to talk about the Luckenbach Witch, but a young girl named Kirska (Jo Maryman) gives the student a book that mentions about the Luckenbach Witch being put to death with a stake in her heart. The book tells the exact location where the witch is buried and the student digs her up. The student pulls the stake out of the decayed corpse, but it causes the witch to come back to life. The witch (played by Libby Hall) murders the decendents of the family that executed her. The student then steps in to stop the killings, until...
Well, I can't spoil it for you. You will have to see it first. THE NAKED WITCH is an entertaining feature with good camerawork, effective acting, and a simple plot. It is not overdone as most people seem to think that is how horror films are made. Though filmed on a budget of $8,000 on 16mm, THE NAKED WITCH looks very lavish and has some creepy moments.
IMDb mentions two video distributors that have THE NAKED WITCH on video: Something Weird Video and Sinister Cinema. If you are leaning towards the Sinister Cinema copy, don't bother because it is a black and white 35mm print that is missing some footage and has horrible sound. Something Weird Video offers the original color version that was restored from Claude Alexander's personal 35mm negative and is uncut.
So get the Something Weird Video copy, sit back and enjoy THE NAKED WITCH.
