A well-crafted, unsettling horror.
GFT
Fri 25 – Thu 31 Mar, 2016
running time: 1h30m
A Puritan family living in 17th century New England is forced to encounter the terrifying powers of evil when their new baby disappears and their daughter is accused of witchcraft. A deeply unsettling and visually compelling horror, The Witch is a tale of black magic, paranoia and religious hysteria. Debut director Robert Eggers won the Sundance festival’s Directing Award, and was praised by the jury for creating a film as “hauntingly detailed as it is masterfully executed”. Glasgow’s own Kate Dickie (Game of Thrones, Red Road) stars alongside brilliant newcomer Anya Taylor-Joy.
