Trial Royale: The Witch Trials, Round 1—Magick

This week, Dave, Neil, and Joanna are back for another Trial Royale! In this multi-week series, they’ll be debating the best witch movie. They begin with the European witches in the magick division. They start by discussing the popularity of witch movies (7:10). Then, they go through some pretrial awards and dismissals (26:28) before revealing the movies that will be represented in the first-round poll and debating which one should move on to the final round (45:59). They also discuss the witch movie that was given a first-round bye (1:25:18). Now it’s up to you to decide! What is the best witch movie? You can vote for the winner at ⁠TheRinger.com⁠, on The Ringer’s X feed, and in the Spotify app, where you’ll find ‘Trial by Content.’ The winner will be announced on the next episode!
