Amazing movie that shows just how effed up people get with religion at times. The Puritans are one of the strongest examples of this, in my opinion. This movie felt much longer than an hour and a half, but not in a bad way. The slow burn of the pacing and the archaic language make it easy to get absorbed in the plot, and the scares are atmospheric rather than abrupt and startling. The casting was impeccable; Game of Thrones is the only place I'd previously seen Ralph Ineson and Kate Dickie, but they were both fantastic here and there. I've seen Anya Taylor-Joy in a few things now, and I adore her as well. This one might even be worth a rewatch, just because there was a lot happening in the environment that a single watch might miss.
