    What's interesting is that from the beginning to the end, the "witch", the main subject of horror, has never appeared in the real sense. Avoided the "Ghostbusters" format that made itself the worst horror movie. On the contrary, ghosts come from character relationships, from religious oppression, from the germination of the concept of sexuality, the overwhelming oppression of the Puritan life against individuals, the whole-hearted dedication to religion without the slightest doubt, and the...

    Where did the devil come from? The first work [The Witch], which has a great idea of ​​sound and picture processing, seems a little hesitant on this issue. In the end it seems to tend to think that the devil exists outside and is powerful enough to take advantage of people's hesitation, jealousy and desire. This compromise route is not entirely satisfactory, as the gods seem to have completely abandoned and banished...

    (8/10) Dark, supernatural, claustrophobic, primitive, religious, demon, memorial ceremony, leading to unknown and mysterious horror, mixed with ancient and primitive witch legends, religious heresies, lost beliefs, demons shrouded sin, weak human beings , until it splits and dies. A strange horror film full of primitive wildness and possessed by evil spirits, it is the kind of horror that slowly spreads darkness, coldness, and dead silence, and gradually penetrates into the body.

    A seemingly deep but pale text can't stand up to careful scrutiny. The deeper the film reviewer's interpretation, the more embarrassing the quality of the film will be. The scene of Black Philip's humanization is enough for the author to be embarrassed. Those with the deepest beliefs are dead, and those who do not have beliefs are better off dead. If you really love interpretation so much, why not read history...

    A bitter child in a bitter field. When will we be able to have such a level of research, such audio-visual quality, to focus on the unnamed for thousands of years, those who are silenced, those who are not in the orthodox writings of historians, those who are struggling to find food in the mud, and most of the bottom laborers. I like the first two-thirds of the daily life in the realistic countryside, and the climax and ending of the hallucinatory spectacle make me feel tired. This lack of...

    Michelet's book The Witches points out that witches are the product of women's extreme oppression. Patriarchal patriarchy, mother's prejudice, twins' arrogance, and as the family disintegrates, so does the oppression of women. Modern science believes that obsession is a manifestation of hysteria. At the end of the dialogue between the daughter and the black goat, the close-up blurs the boundaries between the imagination and the supernatural. Can the final ascension of the witch also be regarded...
