Synopsis:
Set in New England circa 1630, The Witch follows a farmer who get cast out of his Colonial plantation and is forced to move his family to a remote plot of land on the edge of an ominous forest rumored to be controlled by witches. Almost immediately, strange and unsettling things begin to happen-the animals turn violent, the crops fail, and one of the children disappears, only to return seemingly possessed by an evil spirit. As suspicion and paranoia mount, everyone begins to point the finger at teenage daughter Thomasin. They accuse her of witchcraft, which she adamantly denies… but as circumstances become more and more treacherous, each family member’s faith, loyalty, and love will be tested in shocking and unforgettable ways.
Writer/director Robert Eggers’ debut feature, which premiered to great acclaim at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival (and won the Best Director Prize in the U.S. Narrative Competition), painstakingly recreates a God-fearing New England decades before the 1692 Salem witch trials, in which religious convictions and pagan folklore famously clashed. Told through the eyes of the adolescent Thomasin - in a star-making turn by newcomer Anya Taylor-Joy - and supported by mesmerizing camera work and a powerful musical score, The Witch is a chilling and groundbreaking new take on the genre.

It’s a dark, rare and beautiful film.

I thought this movie was more disturbing than scary. Not because of the plot, which is like every puritan superstition rolled into one movie, but because of the way the parents lost their minds and started cannibalize their own children. I thought the movie was a testament to how debilitating Christian faith can be if left unchecked. The actions of the forest creatures in this movie were based more on folklore than reality. I don't expect a rabbit to lead to a harem of witches anytime soon; and then, of course, there is what a goat has come to represent since the middle ages (the devil, oh no). Fear of the unknown; it rules humanity to this day.

When the interviewer asks about influences she mentions two names, but I can't make them out. What are they? "Burton" and "Hammer"? I want to know who they're talking about.

Surely she didn't mean Burton as in Tim, that'd be ridiculous.

Ok. Who is Hammer though?

@thomas18823 7 жыл бұрын

Thanks! I'll have to check out Hammer films. Never heard of them before.

Hammer horror films, the British film company that Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing and lots of other people worked for in the mid 20th century, and Bergman, as in Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman. P sure it’s not Tim Burton ☺️
