"The Witch" is a fantastic period piece. Part fable, part fairy tale, and all atmospheric Horror. I say Horror because that's the genre this film is being dumped into but it's not really that scary. It was all mood, conflict, and suspense, which was awesome. There are no cheap jump scares.
The acting was great and it looked beautiful, though accurately drab. There are some disturbing scenes of atypical gore but thankfully, the director cut away from the violence at just the right time, which made my imagination fill in the blanks.
Again, the sets and dialogue make this film seem like it must be a very accurate reproduction of Puritans or Separatists life in the early 1700's.
