Would you say it was better than Goodnight Mommy and the Babadock? Cause I thought those 2 were a tad overrated and boring. I didn't hate them but they weren't all that hard to figure out.

Not that I enjoy jump scares or anything.

I thought it was definitely better than It Follows and the Babadook, of which both I liked, however I like all kinds of horror movies, including the ones that are slow burn. I haven't seen Goodnight Mommy yet. But, The Witch is definitely a slow burn horror film. So if that might piss you off, you may not like this movie. But then again, I have friends that hate slowburn horror films, that actually did like this movie though just because it was haunting and disturbing as $@!* Lol. And there are definitely many scenes that are a big payoff.

Definitely like slow burn, just didn't think the Babadock was all that great, I really liked It Follows though.

Can't wait to see this one then.

I don't think you'll be disappointed. Even though I lliked The Babadook, it did fall a little short for me too.

It beat the **** out of The Village, that's for sure. :lol

Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood: 5.5/10

Middle of the pack Jason movie. Kills were lackluster and way too quick for the most part. Whole thing felt lazy and kind of phoned in. But, it was still a typical '80s slasher horror movie. And that counts for something.
 
Seriously though, I'll see the Witch when it comes on Redbox. I thought Babadook was a bit lackluster, but thought It Follows was terrific.

If you liked It Follows, you should like this film. The Witch is artisanal horror just like that. [emoji106]

Wow, my thoughts almost exactly echoed yours. I actually looked away during that scene toward the beginning that you mentioned, something I rarely need to do.

I thought this movie was a fascinating account of

what many people in that time and place genuinely dreaded, presenting it all as if those fears were very much grounded in reality, with regard to both the external damage such forces could cause as well as the discord and confusion such beings could create within. It was so organic how the external damage caused inner conflict, the inner conflict gave birth to infighting and imprisonment which allowed the dark being to use his enticements as the gateway to freedom from the very judgment and imprisonment that HE perpetuated. *shudder*

That's very cool, I'm glad you enjoyed it, if "enjoyed" is even the right word. I will see this again on video, but I'm not sure it's something I'd want to watch more than twice. I won't buy it, for fear my kids might pop it in someday, this is probably the last movie I'd let my kid watch, til she's 17 at least, she has already had nightmares about Witches without ever seeing a real horror movie, and I can't even imagine what kind of damage this movie would do to a young mind.

The theater I was in, you could hear a pin drop, not a single sound was uttered and the theater was pretty full. I heard no complaints afterwards, but neither did I hear any praise. This movie will find its audience, but it might not really catch on til it hits video. Not that it's not performing well at the theaters, but from what others have said, the audiences seem pretty polarized in their appreciation of it.

This is the kind of movie that gets under your skin, so I can certainly understand those who say they didn't like it.
 
The Aviator ... 7/10. Didn't know a lot about Howard Hughes biography before this, so it had kind of an A Beautiful Mind plot twist for me. I knew he was an airline tycoon and involved in movies. I didn't know he was insane.

White Men Can't Jump. 2/10. I cannot believe I liked this movie when I was a teenager. A pitiful movie about a real loser with a horrifically annoying girlfriend, and a slightly lesser loser with a slightly less annoying wife ... repeatedly losing all their money (not much) in the pathetic-stakes world of basketball hustling. Because they suck at hustling basketball games. But, hundreds of dollars are at stake ... because if you're going to swindle somebody, pick somebody who spends all their time playing blacktop basketball. That's where all the rich people go. Then the horrifically annoying chick -- who's not especially bright, and still dates the worst basketball hustler in the world -- wins at Jeopardy (right). And, lets her dumbass boyfriend bet her winnings on another blacktop basketball game. Because that makes sense. Terrible.

Didn't see it because it look flat out awful with awful cgi, but if it wasn't for Hunger games, the bomb that is Gods of Egypt prolly would have crippled Lionsgate.
