Is it worh noting the connections between this movie and others like Serial Experiments Lain? --VoltageX 09:23, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Maleficus Maleficarum
It may also be worth noting in the plot that the main characters learn about the Countess' weakness by researching the Maleficus Maleficarum, or Witch's Hammer, a 15th century "witch hunting manual" written by Christian inquisitors that was used to prosecute, torture and kill people thought to be "witches" - yet in this movie, it is apparently considered a reliable historical text rather than the demented tool of superstition and oppression it really was.
That's great and all, but does anyone else think the Trivia Section here is useless and poorly written?
