92: The Craft (1996) "Witchiest Phase of Life"
Description
Here at Why the Flick? we love to get a little spooky. And with October right around the corner, we felt it was only right to celebrate the supernatural with our newest theme—Season of the Witchtober. All month long, we’ll be tapping into our witchy side and to kick things off we’re dabbling in The Craft (1996). This flick is the epitome of ‘90s witchcore aesthetic, complete with goth fashion, an ethereal soundtrack, and real-life inspired spells. Featuring an iconic female cast that includes Robin Tunney, Fairuza Balk, Rachel True, and a pre-Scream Neve Campbell, it not only defined a vibe but also popularized the teen witch genre, making it the perfect first pick in our lineup. This episode, we’re embracing our weirdo selves while breaking down teen girl friendships, elemental symbolism, and the logistics of summoning 10,000 snakes.
