As the filmmaker of this film, I want to point out a misconception that seems to be causing great offence to some people:
The villains in this film are NOT a Wiccan coven. They are satanists pretending to be a Wiccan coven.
I thought that this was made very clear in the film, but quite a few people seem to have missed this so I wanted to clear things up.
I set out to make a simple horror film about a young guy trying to save a women from some bad people. I didn't intend to cause any offence.

Dark Is The Sun
Coven of Evil: Low budget English horror film, mostly filmed o the Yorkshire Moors. Opens in 1798 with a Occult sacrifice during a total eclipse of the Sun, a Gateway is opened. Flash forward to the present day and a young journalist who has written an article about a local (supposedly) Wiccan Coven is mocked by their High Priestess but is invited to observe an actual ritual. His journey to their house is itself a bit of a ritual as he has to seek directions from a Benny (Crossroads) type character. Things get complicated when he reaches the Coven's farmhouse as ends up participating in the Ritual and gets involved with Priestess's sister. An interesting story but the pace is a bit uneven and not all of the acting is great. The horror is there though with sacrifices, throats cut, cannibalism and the bleakness of the Moors. Especially the sacrifice site, a natural outcrop but it resembles Standing Stones. It could easily have lost 10 minutes from it's 100 minute running time. Written & Directed by Matthew Lawrence. On YouTube pay to view. 6/10.
