This Film For Me Was Like A Breath Of Fresh Air As I Spent Watching Many Pointless Horror Films Which Meant Nothing To Me.


The Witch - A New England Folktale, commonly known as The VVitch, is a 2015 Historical Supernatural Gothic Horror Drama Written and Directed by Robert Eggers. The film stars Anya Taylor-Joy, Ralph Ineson and Kate Dickie and is set in 17th centurn England, where a Puritan family is banished from their colony, and the story goes on as they face the most evil and nightmarish conflicts of their lives.


Okay let me make this perfectly clear. The fact that it has that low of an IMDB score and mixed reviews just because they "didn't understand it" is just so goddamn stupid. You know there are horror films that scare us with jumpscares, some horror films make us sad with the story, some doesn't have horror elements but are still scary. But this one is different. It's intense. It's artistic. It's disturbing. It's that kind of horror that makes us feel weird for a long and I mean very long time. The film has way too complicated narration and plot, but it succeeds in accomplishing it flawlessly... Thanks to Eggers. The best part of the film is how the relationships in between the family are written... but I'm not gonna talk about it cause I might give spoilers. It's still gives me chills when I think about some situations in the film. With an imaginative writing and directing consisting of a large potential... this is one of the most aggressively toxic films of the 21st century.. yet sublimely made.


Guys this is indeed a horror film but it's more of a phenomenal filmmaking. And of course I gave it a five-star rating which means I liked it and you should check it out right....

The Witch o La Bruja es una película escrita y dirigida por Robert Eggers, protagonizada por Anya Taylor-Joy, con un presupuesto de 4 millones de dólares.


▶️ En México se encuentra en Netflix


La pelicula trata una familia compuesta por un matrimonio de colonos cristianos, padres de cinco hijos, viven cerca de un bosque. La convivencia estalla y la familia se desgarra al sospechar que su hija mayor practica la brujería, debido a que las cosechas no crecen y su bebé ha desaparecido.


Robert Eggers es el director que actualmente más me interesa ver como va progresando su filmografia en el futuro, ya que aparte de hacer películas de terror con tintes de fantasía, es un director que se nota que estudia la época en la que se desarrollan sus historias, por cosas como la manera de hablar de los personajes. La cinematográfia y la música le dan a la película esta increíble ambientación llena de misterio, donde no puedes estar seguro de lo que realmente esta pasando, las actuaciones son fantásticas, sobretodo quiero destacar a Ralph Ineson que hace un esplendido trabajo. Además la película da para mucho que pensar, y es una critica a los religiosos extremistas y a sus vivencias. Mi único problema con la película son los niños que actúan de los gemelos que llegan a ser un poco irritantes, pero por lo demás me pareció excelente y la recomiendo como una forma de adentrarse al cine de terror independiente.
