The final poster for one of the best films we’ve seen so far of the 2016 horror slate, The Witch, has landed. We caught the film at this year’s London Film Festival (read our review here), and we can’t wait for the film to land in cinemas so that we can all start discussing it. We promise you, it will be once of the best films you see next year.
The film revolves around a Puritan family who have settled on their own in the wilderness of New England. When their new-born son mysteriously disappears, and their other children start to behave in very strange ways. they begin to suspect that their teenage daughter is actually a witch, and as the film progresses, and her actions become even more questionable, the family starts to break apart.
This is the praise we heaped upon it back in October:
Deeply unsettling, upsetting and intensely stomach churning, The Witch may be one of the bravest and best horror film debuts of recent years. This is an outstanding piece of work from all involved, particularly from [director Robert] Eggers. I loved it, though I never want to see it again.
Check out the poster below and the film in cinemas from 11th March, 2016 in the UK, and the US on 26th of February.
