Review of The Witch (2016) by Cenobyte85 — 05 Apr 2017
A lot of people who didn't like this movie are getting criticism from those who did enjoy it. I'm a movie buff and I like the occasional indie film as well, but this movie was just plain bad. I know what suspenseful buildup is and I know what intentional slow burn is.
I wasn't expecting a jump scare gory blood bath horror flick. I knew what type of movie I was getting myself into. That said, this movie was still dreadfully boring and had very little payoff. It barely had anything enticing about it except for the final 10 minutes, although even that was quite predictable.
It was a historically accurate period piece sure, but was it entertaining horror? No. If you want to "live deliciously" just youtube the ending. It's really about the only thing this bore fest has going for it.
