Your favourite occult movies/TV shows?

[john59]

Hi everyone,
I wanted to ask the community two things:

1. What are your absolute favourite occult, witchcraft, or magical movies/TV shows?
2. Which shows do you feel come the closest to accurately depicting real occult practices, ritual magic, or esoteric themes compared to modern witchcraft/magical traditions?

I'd love to hear your thoughts on shows like Supernatural, Penny Dreadful e.t.c.

1. Hereditary and Teen Wolf
2. Probably, A Dark Song

The Craft
The Matrix
Disney's Pixars Soul
Encanto (so many Spiritual meaning in this movie)

Doctor Strange

might sound like a funny choice, but I'll go with Star vs. forces of evil.
I love children's shows that are deep in lore; and this one hits the spot even better because it's whole gig is magic(k).

The Ninth Gate. Night of the Demon.

I enjoyed Sleepy Hollow until it inevitably turned into a soap opera.

Oh, and the one I recommend to everyone, The Lost Room.

Twin Peaks, The Craft (1996), The Devil's Advocate, Fallen, Stigmata and Se7en (though not really on magic), The Magicians.

Thanks for the replies everyone.

Movies by Eggers (the new Nosferatu, very notably) are very realistic in the occult research at least. I’ve heard that Eggers is a practicing occultist himself but unsure if that’s true.

For me it would have to be sinners, I know its barely shown but how they kept to the originality of hoodoo and kept to the (ironically enough) roots of hoodoo was a breath of fresh air

Kenneth Anger: Lucifer Rising. (Well, I was 18 when I saw it first, so an experience)
