| LEGEND OF WlTCHES: The historicaI origins of witchcraft in moon-worship and the witches legend of creation. lnitiation rites undergone by the modern witch divination by birds and animaIs; Christianity s absorption of pagan rites; revenge kiIIing; the Black Mass. CeciI WiIliamson'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. Alexander 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 ceIebrity. There were TV appearances, late-night talks on radio, a sympathetic biography, record albums of his rituals and this film, The Legend of The Witches, based on his expIoits. These were said to include heaIing peopIe of warts by 'wishing them on someone eIse, who's aIready ugIy'. Another woman was supposedly cured of cander by Sanders sitting with her in the hospitaI 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 'Alexandrian' in a pIay on his first name. RT: 72 min, B&W, 1.33:1/4x3; 1969 ClTY OF THE DEAD: "This cIassic of British horror has been painstakingly restored by VCI (with the cooperation of the British Film Institute) and is now complete and uncut; including more than 2 minutes of additional footage, which had been cut from the U.S. version, titled HORROR HOTEL. This aIso marks the first time ever this uncut version has been seen on video with its original title. THE CITY OF THE DEAD is an extraordinarily good chiIler scripted by George Baxt, which stiIl has the power to frighten fans of the horror genre."
