    Storyline

    • Trivia
      While writing the script for The Love Witch, Anna Biller had been reading relationship self-help books, and one particular piece of advice that stuck out to her was that if a woman wants to keep a man around, she should love him less than he loves her. She noticed a parallel between this advice and the female characters in classic cinema who love someone to death such as Ellen in Leave Her to Heaven (1945), so she decided to created the character Elaine in the same vein.
    • Goofs
      Elaine performs a seductive dance for Richard, causing him to bite her rear end in a fit of lust. Before he bites her, red bite marks are already visible on her right buttock from previous takes.
    • Quotes

      Elaine: Witchcraft is just a way of concentrating energy. It can only work with what's already there.

    Better than people give it credit for

    Better than people give it credit for. Beautifully shot and acted. The late 60s' theme works great. You almost thing you are watching a film from that era. It has a little horror and a little comedy but not to much of either. The runtime could have been trimmed.
