Dave Dreher talks with iconic director Chuck Russell and the
cast of WITCHBOARD: Madison Iseman, Aaron Domingues, and Charlie
Tahan.
Emily, her fiancé Christian, and a group of their friends are
opening a café in New Orleans French Quarter, by refurbishing an
old carriage house. But a darkness descends over Emily when she
discovers the Witchboard, an ancient Wiccan pendulum board once
used to summon spirits. Christen seeks help for Emily from occult
expert Alexander Baptiste. But Baptiste has secrets of his own.
A modern coven of White Witches, a masked ball at Baptiste’s
mansion, and the legacy of Naga Soth, the Queen of Witches are all
part of a dangerous game that puts Emily’s very soul at risk.
Based on the 1987 VHS video store staple by Kevin Tenney, Russell
and his team bring a new spin on the classic tale of why some
things found in the woods should just be left there.
