I thought it was worth watching.A little eerie,a little weird,more psychological than supernatural.I enjoyed it.

Step 1: expect sociology, not horror.
Step 2: Imagine a world before Kinsey spread the lie that everybody is really, secretly a pervert. Two of the bad things about those days (which were far saner sexually, than now, regardless) was the inability of people to talk about anything sexual, and the expression of sexism and misogyny through putting white women in well appointed suburban cages. (Now, all women are at equal risk of being treated like disposable meat; not an improvement, but it's different.)
Step 3: Read "The Yellow Wallpaper" and the associated cliff notes.
Step 4: Watch movie, and try to see things from her point of view. Yeah, the symbolism is about as subtle as a volcano, but you really get to see the late 60s/early 70s mind set.

If you like the song, "Season of the Witch", then there is something interesting for you about halfway through the movie. Other than that, I was not sober while watching this movie and even in my drunken stupor I had enough since to go to sleep rather than finish watching this crap. Maybe I dreamed something more entertaining - or wet my bed - either one would be an improvement over watching this documentary of a middle-aged woman in 1970 having a nervous breakdown.

It was like a variety of subplots strung together but having no cohesion--much like roads that lead to nowhere. The whole witchcraft theme was dull and stupid, but I found the dream/nightmare sequence was the best part of the film.

Nice to know there's more to George A. Romero than just the "Living Dead" series. This tale has a logical storyline and practical plot with a social commentary as do most horror films. Starting off in the real world before the captivating horror story takes control and ending back in the real world 'style' of Romero is superb. The daughters free spirited boyfriend reminds one of Robert Downey Jr.'s acting style. The leading female character handles her role so well without her this film would crash and burn in 5 minutes. I watched this one in anticipation of the soon to be 'Season of the Witch' (2011) dvd release as I was curious if the films are connected. I enjoyed this tale and recommend it for fans of Romero works, witch watchers, and those who really enjoy low budgets with creativity. Thank you, Hulu and keep the grindhouse and sploitation alive!
