criticism
“What sounds very funny in a nutshell and could have turned out to be a great parody (...), however, turned out to be a tired sleeping pill. Subject given away. "
"A simple-minded and confused conversation, poorly made, far too innocent to make satirical capital from the subject."
“A funny witch movie, but without a whistle, which lags behind its predecessors. Entertaining from 16. "
Remarks
The film was shot in Spain by the producer, American Sidney Pink, who lived in Madrid, with an exclusively Spanish crew and a few Hollywood imports. Contrary to most of the statements that lead it under its international title A Witch without a Broom , it is not a Hollywood production. The first trap fell on April 11, 1966.
