Wiccan spell, jinx, curse, hex, the evil eye, or voodoo ritual – many cultures possess their own brand of black magic.  With the internet exploding with sites that teach readers the finer points of impaling voodoo dolls and the basics of a well-crafted hex, the dark forces may be at work right next door. Is there any power to all this ill will? Can someone harness evil to harm others? Does the recipient need to believe in the curse to be affected by it? Filmmaker Donna Davies investigates the dark recesses of the occult to shed some light on the most dreaded form of magic. She questions a professor who feels she was cursed after delving into witches’ spells in Newfoundland, learns about disturbing Haitian voodoo rituals in Louisiana and delves into cutting edge research into the science of the curse.
