I wouldnt blame you for not having heard of The Hexer.

The Hexer was a two-hour film that was incredibly poorly received.

It coincided with action toys and the first English translation of the novels, but flopped critically and commercially.

So why is it that The Hexer has been given a new lease of life in 2023?

To know for sure, we have to find out a bit more about the film itself.

Many assume that, because its not called The Witcher, this is an unofficial adaptation.

The casting of famous Polish stars helped draw people in, but it didnt quite work out.

Critics praised the acting and score, but little else.

So why has The Hexer re-entered the public consciousness?

While not many blackouts persist, communities across Reddit are undertaking similar protests.
