I have been meaning to watch this. I've heard many good things about it. That it's not your typical horror movie. It's a slow burner with a different style to it. That's it doesn't really on jump scares, but it tries to be genuinely creepy as hell. This looks to be the first outting for writer director Robert Eggers. I swear a lot of first time directors are really making a name for themselves as ... read more

A good movie

To be honest, this movie was not really a high priority for me but since it was recommended by another listal member and since it seemed to be intriguing, I thought I might as well check it out. First of all, even though the poster looked pretty good, at the same time, in my opinion, it gave away too much information and was still rather misleading. Anyway, even though the damned thing didn't real... read more

A zealous man and his family are cast out of Puritan society after a difference of opinion about scripture and left to fend for themselves in the wilderness. The facade of piety soon gives way to the destructive nature of their personal demons which a coven in the woods exploits to their ends. But what will bring this family to its knees, dark and Satanic evil or their own natures?

A colonial family leaves plantation life and attempts to reap their harvest on a fledgling farm at the edge of an imposing ancient New England forest. Soon, superstition and dread set in as food grows scarce, a family member goes missing, and the children's play takes on a frenzied and menacing undercurrent. As they begin to turn on one another, the malevolent machinations of an ethereal presence from within the woods exacerbate the growing corruption of their own natures.

Child and Presence of Death (11 movies items)
Weve posted a review 3 months, 3 weeks ago

“The witch es parte de un grupo de películas que me resultan particularmente desagradable. No necesariamente por aspectos cinematográficos o narrativos que puedan ser medidos por argumentación sobre la lógica interna de la obra, si no por el propósito final al que este tipo de argumentación sirve. De hecho, diré que en un inicio mis opiniones eran opuestas, pues el filme parecía querer tratar sus temas desde una perspectiva intelectual, pero a medida que avanzaba me di cuenta que todo lo que había hecho no era mucho más que un panfleto de propaganda pagana y anti-cristiana.

Cualquier planteamiento sobre "el pecado en el ser virtuoso", "naturaleza humana" o sobre "Los limites de la fe" son solo presentados, más no se exploran de ninguna manera y resultan solo ser element” read more

"In 1630s New England, William and Katherine lead a devout Christian life with five children, homesteading on the edge of an impassable wilderness, exiled from their settlement when William defies the local church. When their newborn son vanishes and crops mysteriously fail, the family turns on one another. This is really one of, if not the defining face of new horror that's come up in the latter half of this decade. I think this movie had a big part in the intent to unsettle and disturb, rath"

" Director: Robert Eggers His 1st movie My 2nd movie watched from the director Well, this was a fun one! Said nobody. Obviously going into it I wasn't expecting 'fun', but holy Hell this one was rough. A movie that just gets worse and worse for the characters. Still, that doesn't diminish the filmmaking.
