One of my favorite aspects of this movie is the fact that the forest is displayed the way it is. In that time, Puritans saw the woods as the devil's land, where God and community may not protect you. I think that's the feeling the Mrs was trying to describe toward the beginning, when they first arrive at the place of the homestead. It's also why the children were barred from entry--not just because it was dangerous, but because it was dangerous due to the devil. The sheer idea of being exiled from the Puritan settlement was a death sentence, and the entire family got it because the father was very prideful and righteous, and he thought he knew better of God than the rest of the village. In those times, a single sinner could damn the whole town, so to them, they had to get him to repent or leave to save themselves. The Mrs also got the atmospheric effect of immersion, and even said if things like this were going on (or we just think they are) then hell yeah, we're burning people. It just goes to show how effective Eggars was at getting you to empathize with a very hardline religion's followers despite such a gap with the audience. It's truly an amazing period-piece, and there are so few good ones done of the Puritan days, especially in horror. I'm an English nerd and loved that Eggars used "true accounts" and research so heavily to create the film, because it reflects back so well.

@patrickelliott2169 Жыл бұрын

The most disturbing thing about it is how many people haven't outgrown the sort of thinking of the puritans in the movie, and would be just as happy, if they could, to exile people for imagined dangers, or even try to kill them. In the end, all this was purely in the heads of "the faithful", when it wasn't being driven by greed, avarice, jealousy, and other vices, and that being from the accusers, not the accused.

@MrFredstt Жыл бұрын

As well as it being new land that wasn't 100% known probably added into the danger and fear factor. Being exiled back then would've been a pretty big deal and life would've been really hard.

I love this movie so much. Robert Eggers spent a long time researching this specific time period in North America. He used journals, court records and news articles as samples for how people spoke in New England in the 1600s, and in some cases directly lifted the dialogue from the source texts. Anya Taylor-Joy is one of my favorite actresses, she is just so good in this film.

@@MrFredstt it's not Old English. It's Early Modern English. Old English was the language of Anglo-Saxon England before the Norman Conquest. It was a language similar to German, because that's where the Anglo-Saxons came from. The language that developed into what we call English is really a fusion of the Old English or Anglo-Saxon language with Norman French, which became the language of the nobility once the William the Conqueror conquered England in 1066. The people of that time, who had recently emerged from Elizabethan England and the time of Shakespeare, would have spoken what's known as Early Modern English, not Old English. That language would have fallen out of favor in England many centuries earlier.

Something about the Salem Witch Trials: "In 1976 Linnda Caporael offered the first evidence that the Salem witch trials followed an outbreak of rye ergot. Ergot is a fungus blight that forms hallucinogenic drugs in bread. Its victims can appear bewitched when they're actually stoned. Ergot thrives in a cold winter followed by a wet spring. The victims of ergot might suffer paranoia and hallucinations, twitches and spasms, cardiovascular trouble, and stillborn children. Ergot also seriously weakens the immune system."

@leeb6476 Жыл бұрын

This theory is disputed but I find it really interesting. I believe there was a modern example in France perhaps in the 60-70s. Ergot had infected the local crops of a rural village deep in France and the villagers had intense trips from eating the local bakers bread I think. One old man is seen on film describing tigers wandering his garden and house. This was described in a BBC documentary I half remember from the 90s. Fascinating stuff.

The accurate use of old Yorkshire English dialect is outstanding. I love the bleakness, the feeling of isolation after they are banished, it is a remarkable film debut. The discordant rising vibrato voices builds even more tension that the usual horror movie jump scare musical "stings." It is a beautifully horrific film, and has some balls to tackle a few issues that most film makers shy away from, even if they unsettle me every time I watch this film. My face is basically the same expression as Mrs Movies when I watch it. It's intense, I must doff my hat to the minimal cast for carrying the film so well, and so naturally. First time I watched this was on a large screen, at night, with headphones. Yeah, that provided very odd dreams.

@petersvillage7447 Жыл бұрын

That's correct, albeit it's Hares rather than rabbits. It stretches back a long way to a pagan goddess associated with the hare, named Eastre - it's from her that we get the word 'Easter' and the idea of the Easter Bunny.... and the Christian attitude toward old beliefs was (broadly speaking) to equate them with devil-worship, so there was this association between witches and hares and a belief that a witch could take the form of a hare. This still shows up in English folklore and literature. So, the hare in the woods can absolutely be read as the witch spying on them, and hexing the musket-shot. On the other hand, it could just have been a hare and a bad luck misfire...

This reaction reminded me that Bobby Eggs has 3 films, like Jordan Peele and everyone is ranking his films after the release of Nope. So, I was wondering if y’all plan on doing any ranking videos-Maybe a tier list-of the directors & their works you’ve seen? 🙏🏼☺️ BTW, Last Podcast On The Left just did a great series on The Salem Witch Trials. Would love to see more Folk Horror: The Wicker Man (1973,) Blood On Satan’s Claw (1971,) and Witchfinder General (1968,) being the big three of the genre, (though I’d like to see Witchfinder General replaced with something else, maybe The VvItch (2014) or La Llorona (2019,) tbh.) I do think The Ritual (2017,) Krampus (2015,) & Midsommar (2019) absolutely get the “Folk Horror” label, though I think too many people get Folk Horror & Rural Horror confused, so there’s a lot of crappy lists out there. The Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched: A History Of Folk Horror documentary is probably the ultimate guide on the genre, if y’all are interested.

Look how they were living! They were barely getting by and practically starving. I always think nature and the woods must have been absolutely terrifying back then, especially if you are all alone. And the Salem witch trials were all about mass hysteria. And finger-pointing. No actual witchcraft. Some folk remedies were misinterpreted and a handful of girls started playing a scary game and didn’t know how to stop.

The isolation of today's rural New England woods is spooky enough as it is, I can't imagine how oppressive the dread was in the early 17th century. I think its accurate portrayal is my favorite part of this film.

I freaking love this film. People complained that it is slow or difficult to understand the dialog. I'm not even a native speaker and I understood what they were saying. The only thing thats different is the old pronouns and that they add -th at the end of some words. Advice for people that are going to watch this film for the first time or are going to watch it again. For the last scene with black Phillip you need to make the screen of your TV brighter or you will miss one neat 1/2 a second transformation. Black Phillip is the "Goat" (NPI)

I see this movie numerous times it really really like it, and every time I watch it I see something new. Picked up two things the last time I watched it. One is that as Thomasin and Black Phillip are bargaining the light in the background goes dark as she's making her "dark" decision. The other part is when Philip asks her if she sees a book before her there a camera cut to the book on the floor. Black Phillip walks by it, and the first foot is actually a goat's hoof and the second foot is actually black Phillips boot, so he's changing as he's walking by. And at one point you can actually see Black Phillips face when he walks behind her.

Many people that were claimed to be witches were actually just mentally ill or drug users. For a really long time it took forever for schizophrenia to be recognized as a mental illness. Egger's has said he has no interest in making a modern setting film, so I'll be interested to see what else he does. Period piece films are always really interesting, especially when it's very accurate and has attention to detail.

@ragtimeraver Жыл бұрын

Accusing someone of being a witch was a convenient way to other and persecute anyone who was different, noncompliant (regarding religious and social norms, or critical of the witch hysteria itself), or just plain in the way (like in neighborly disputes or instances of personal revenge). Part of the "never again" lessons in many New England schools is recognizing that the Salem witch trials were less about the accused and more about the motives of the accusers and the tense community environment that allowed for the hysteria to flourish.

Quite a unique film you're reacting to here. Among the many impressive details is the research and implementation of the language of the time into the script. I thought I caught most of the dialog until I watched it with subtitles. My first viewing was in the theater. Two ladies got up and left huffily after the scene with the infant and the Witch. And they made a big SHOW about leaving. I delight in such occasions. Perhaps there's something wrong with me. Gratitude Mr n Mrs. Movies.

But the accuser had wanted to purchase the land but was unable to get her to.sell. So the accuser conspired with the judge/law (can't remember the position) to obtain property.

Love your reactions! I’m from Salem and jsyk no witches were burned there. That happened in Europe before the 1600s. In Salem, those accused were hung and one man was pressed to death. There was no actually witchcraft as we see in movies. It was a lot of hysteria, which I think this film portrays very well within a singular family unit. Love love love this movie!
