Review of The Witches of Eastwick (1987) by Steven1981 — 21 Mar 2020
This film is a 1987 comedy fantasy/horror but also some romance features added to it. The Witches of Eastwick is based on a novel by John Updike and stars Michelle Pfeiffer, Susan Sarandon, Cher, Richard Jenkins, Veronica Cartwright and Jack Nicholson.
.... It's basically about good vs evil and I can't remember if the three women (Cher, Sarandon and Pfeiffer) are witches in the movie but as far as I remember they are but don't quote me. Anyway a mysterious stranger comes into their lives (Nicholson) and the rest you can judge for yourselves.
A fairly violent film and Jack Nicholson mocking God which is hilarious and the vomiting grapes scene by Veronica Cartwright and the use of witchcraft, voodoo or some nonsense and romance. It's a strange film and a strange story by director George Miller but entertaining however not the best film but by no means the worst and if you want some recommendations about better Jack Nicholson films I suggest watching Five Easy Pieces, Chinatown and The Shining.
