Uh huh....
On Sunday, Satanic Temple Co-Founder Lucien Greaves tweeted that the group would be "taking legal action" against Netflix and the show for "appropriating" its copyrighted monument design of Baphomet. Greaves confirmed to SFGATE that the group's lawyer sent a letter to Netflix. He also added that Baphomet, and particularly their design of the figure, is a "central icon" to the Satanic Temple.
In the new "Sabrina" series, half-witch Sabrina Spellman (Kiernan Shipka) is enrolled at a witchcraft school called the Academy of Unseen Arts, at which a Baphomet statue sits at the center. The show's Satan character becomes Sabrina's adversary and is referred to as the "Dark Lord."

ReplyDeleteShit! I saw that last night, and thought they'd borrowed it from the Temple. I didn't realize it was a ripoff. I'm bummed.
ReplyDeleteJust so that I understand.... The temple would be fine with Netflix using a Baphomet statue. Just not that specific design b/c it is a copyrighted work?
ReplyDeleteI did a Google. They might have trouble defending a copyright on this. It's pretty standard in lots of ways.

ReplyDeleteThe question is going to be whether it's too close to the ST version or has features unique to the ST version.
ReplyDeleteI really can't tell from the Sabrina picture.
