Review of The Witch (2016) by Luca Maria M — 20 Oct 2017

91%??? I was so excited to see this movie, and found it to be a huge letdown. The movie felt like someone's first idea went straight to production. It really needed some brainstorming sessions. Why do we care, why is this happening, should we add some suspense, should we try to make the characters likeable or relatable in any way, should we do the reveal near the start of the movie, or try to build tension first? All good questions that I feel like I could have helped out with.

Further to that, I found that the dialog was a mix of overly flowery mumbled language alternating with extended yelling. Both became tiresome quickly.
