I figured this needs its own thread because I'm probably gonna shit all over myself when I finally see it and we also have horror fans here.

Robert Eggers’ THE WITCH hits theaters nationwide on February 19th, and if you like absolutely terrifying horror, you’d be doing yourselves a favor giving it a watch or four. The film, which is based in New England in 1630, tells the tale of a family plagued by the possibility of their young daughter being possessed by a witch. It’s a Satanic masterpiece and definitely one to experience. Being released by A24, the film’s final trailer, which shows “Black Phillip” ominously adding paranoia to the family, is now available to watch (see below).
In this exquisitely made and terrifying new horror film, the age-old concepts of witchcraft, black magic and possession are innovatively brought together to tell the intimate and riveting story of one family’s frightful unraveling in the New England wilderness circa 1630. New England, 1630. Upon threat of banishment by the church, an English farmer leaves his colonial plantation, relocating his wife and five children to a remote plot of land on the edge of an ominous forest – within which lurks an unknown evil. Strange and unsettling things begin to happen almost immediately – animals turn malevolent, crops fail, and one child disappears as another becomes seemingly possessed by an evil spirit. With suspicion and paranoia mounting, family members accuse teenage daughter Thomasin of witchcraft, charges she adamantly denies. As circumstances grow more treacherous, each family member’s faith, loyalty and love become tested in shocking and unforgettable ways. Writer/director Robert Eggers’ debut feature, which premiered to great acclaim at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival – winning the Best Director Prize in the U.S. Narrative Competition – painstakingly recreates a God-fearing New England decades before the 1692 Salem witch trials, in which religious convictions tragically turned to mass hysteria. Told through the eyes of the adolescent Thomasin – in a star-making turn by newcomer Anya Taylor-Joy – and supported by mesmerizing camera work and a powerful musical score, THE WITCH is a chilling and groundbreaking new take on the genre.
