Yeah, they didn’t go all in on the wildly random & dumb humor like the original but maybe if there’s a sequel they will🤔

“Häxan…”is always a trip to watch. Every time I get something new out of it… I’m off to bed b/c I have doctor appointments all morning so no #TCMImports for me this week but I’ll definitely be back for The Battle of the (fake) Bands later tonight. Get some sleep, #TCMParty 💕
