Report
Grave robbing, torture, possessed nuns, and a satanic Sabbath: Benjamin Christensen's legendary film uses a series of dramatic vignettes to explore the scientific hypothesis that the witches of the Middle Ages suffered the same hysteria as turn-of-the-century psychiatric patients. But the film itself is far from serious-- instead it's a witches' brew of the scary, gross, and darkly humorous.

It is implied through various scenes, and there are a few times where people are told to disrobe in order to prove something.

There is a lot of mention of torture to people accused of witches throughout the entire film, including graphic descriptions and re-enactments

There is a scene where a woman gives birth to a demon - It's not explicit (a person in a demon costume crawls from under a blanket which covers the entire lower half of a woman)
