Does anyone know about any good movies or documentaries about witchcraft? I've been looking for something to watch, lately. Leave a list if you know about a few!

The only movies/documentaries that you will see about witchcraft will be all about how stupid it is; how it is devil worship, people "possessed " by demons, and telling untrue stories about witches. There are such movies about the Occult, but none about real witchcraft. All these movies/documentaries are about the supernatural; and there is nothing supernatural about witchcraft; it is not a religion! Harry Potter rules, okay?
I seriously don't know about any because most movies are made out of a christian perspective and is usually about possession or exorcisms or people killing for satan.
So I really don't think there are movies that are non mundane. But if u do find anything I would like to know

check youtube, they have a few documentaries on witchcraft. i remember watching some good ones from history and national geographic like 8 years ago, there should still be some. [but there are also a few by Christian groups if you want a laugh] good luck finding non-fiction that paints us in a good light. i recommend Practical Magic [while it does have some Hollywood make believe, it does a good job representing pagans]
I agree with Byrsing, there aren't any movies that accurately tell about witchcraft.
However if your just looking for a really good movie where the main characters are witches... I recomend the witches of East wick (movie), and the craft (movie).
These movies are good in the aspect of entertainment.
There are rarely/no movies or documentaries that take a correct view to what witchcraft actually is, they turn into what Hollywood has it as, a cult or flying on a broomstick. I'd recommend looking more into books by authors who actually pratice rather than look for any type of documentary on the practice.

There is a series of videos on You Tube called "The Great Work". There are six of them. Not specifically witchcraft, but very good works on the occult. You may find them interesting.
