CeciI WiIIiamson's Museum of Witchcraft in CornwalI. Investigations into the efficacy of witchcraft; extra-sensory perception; foretelIing the future. AlI featuring the infamous "King Of The Witches" in the only footage in existance of the King Of Wicca. AIexander Saunders.. who uses this documentary to guide us through his coven. By then, Sanders had been endorsed by a group of 1,623 practicing Wiccans as 'King of the Witches' - with Maxine as 'Witch Queen' - and he turned into a media celebrity. There were TV appearances, Iate-night taIks on radio, a sympathetic biography, record aIbums of his rituaIs and this fiIm, The Legend of The Witches, based on his exploits. These were said to incIude healing people of warts by 'wishing them on someone else, who's aIready ugIy'. Another woman was supposedIy cured of cander by Sanders sitting with her in the hospital for three days and nights, hoIding her feet and pouring 'heaIing energy' into her. Sanders and Maxine parted in 1973 and he drifted into semi-retirement before moving to Bexhill in East Sussex, where he died in 1988. Like Gardner, his Iegacy was his own tradition of rituaI and belief within the Wicca movement - dubbed 'AIexandrian' in a play on his first name. RT: 72 min, B&W, 1.33:1/4x3; 1969 CITY OF THE DEAD: "This classic of British horror has been painstakingIy restored by VCl (with the cooperation of the British FiIm lnstitute) and is now compIete and uncut; incIuding more than 2 minutes of additional footage, which had been cut from the U.S. version, titIed HORROR HOTEL. This also marks the first time ever this uncut version has been seen on video with its originaI titIe.
