Three youngsters, Sandra (Paula Pier), Mario (Alfonso Romeo) and Eduardo (Jorge Gallardo) want to achieve internet fame with a viral video about something scary - and stumble upon a legend of 6 women convicted for witchcraft some 400 years ago, but only 5 were actually executed, one, Joana Toy (Clara Gayo), had disappeared to God (or the Devil?) knows where. Of course, none of the kids believe in witchcraft, but what makes the story scary still is that Joana is a descendant of the judge who has convicted the witches in the first place. Plus, all the locations of interest for the story are nearby, so why not try to milk it? Incredibly, the youngsters are chased away from the first location by some masked weirdos who might have to do with the story (or so a graffiti probably left by them suggests) ... so now our youngsters are all the more determined to check out the main location, the very home of Joana - which includes a hike (with overnight camping) through the woods where nobody has gone for years. But soon enough they notice they are not alone, soon too, their map and their cellphones are gone, and when they witness the ranger of the area being killed by a masked weirdo who probably belongs to above gang, they - well, decide to abort their mission. But what can they do in the middle of the woods, having lost their way?

 

By the time The Last Witch was made, the found footage approach was by no means new anymore but rather over-used - and yet, this movie gets something out of it, as it doesn't forget effective storytelling, creating suspense and placing its shocks quite right over its shaky-camera approach, features a very likeable and relatable trio in the leads, and really gets a feeling of intimacy out of the point-of-view camerawork weirdly enough only rarely achieved in found footage flicks.

Totally watchable, to say the least!
