_**Spooky tale with the Separatists from Hell**_ A troubled couple from Manhattan (Hope Lange & Paul Burke) inherits a farmhouse in Massachusetts, which the wife curiously finds familiar. Sins of centuries past come to the fore as strange things start happening. Cindy Eilbacher is on hand as a ... nice orphaned girl that stays with the couple. "Crowhaven Farm" (1970) is a well-done mystery/horror that was originally released to television. While it’s not specifically about the infamous Salem Witch Trials, that piece of history is mentioned and I’d watch this low-key production any day over the grossly melodramatic “The Crucible” (1996). If you’re in the mood for a streamlined flick along the lines of "The Amityville Horror" (1979) and “Bay Cove” (1987), it fills the bill despite its modest origins. It’s superior to the dull “The Messengers” (2007). The film runs 1 hour, 14 minutes, and was shot at Paramount Studios and Bronson Caves (which is just down from the iconic Hollywood Sign), Los Angeles. GRADE: B-/B (6.5/10)
