S2: Episode 54: The Witch (2015)

Robert Eggers, you're a mad man! This week the team at The Horrorble People's Podcast bring you a deep dive into pilgrim history and the movie that brought it to the modern day. That's right, we're covering the 2015 hit THE WITCH: A NEW ENGLAND FOLKTALE, released by A24. Follow Anthony and Alix as they bring you an breakdown of life in early colonial history, and how a bold filmmaker used his love his said history and a ton of primary resources to create a chilling directorial debut. They also take a look at how it was picked up by A24, the barren shooting conditions (no cell phone service, the horror), and a deep dive into the themes of the film in an extended discussion. Fun AND Intellectual, isn't that worth 5 stars? We pray to Black Phillip it is! Classic Horror 2 by Kevin MacLeod Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License
