The Witch2016

The moment I saw Anya Taylor Joy on the crew, I knew I had to watch this movie and lately I’ve been in the mood for horror films. It’s clear that the film has depth, but the storytelling is extremely weak. There’s no real background to the story, just symbolic religious dialogues that the pessimistic majority wouldn’t understand. I’m not sure what the director was trying to convey, but instead of watching it under the title of a horror or thriller, I think it needs to be viewed from a different perspective. The film is set in the 1630s, and I couldn’t help but notice the English of that period as well hahaha
