Community Reviews

Opinions on 'The VVitch' are quite polarized, with many praising its unique, eerie atmosphere and historical authenticity, while others find its slow pace and lack of traditional horror elements disappointing. The film's deep dive into themes of faith, paranoia, and witchcraft in a puritanical society is lauded for its psychological depth and unsettling mood, enhanced by stellar performances, particularly from Anya Taylor-Joy. However, some viewers struggled with the film's narrative style and felt it lacked engaging horror.

👍 Stellar performances and historical authenticity

👎 Slow pace and unconventional horror elements
