Pagan movie reviews
This is the category for Pagan movie reviews – everything that makes sense for European Pagan parents looking for things to watch with their kids or alone.
There are many history- and mythology-related movies for all levels of Pagan initiation and understanding produced nowadays. A lot of these movies contain pure European values, but some are trying to push subversive ideas.

Yahwist war-mongering propaganda being the main purpose of the movie, the spiritual European Pagan aspect is severely lacking. Even though the movie…
