Wood splitting is pretty plainly becoming a metaphor for the fathers need to divide the world into right and wrong. #TheVVitch #scareymovies

The tightly woven metaphor of the dangers of pride, of desire, of seeking knowledge is a powerful and well done narrative so far. #TheVVitch #scarymovies

The inclusion of the rabbit - a well known fertility symbol - just heightens the tension of the other elements masterfully. As not a fan of scary movies generally, this is cinema. #THEVVITCH #scarymovie

The uncomfortable tie in of the erotic and the forbidden is similarly unsettling but artful. #THEVVITCH #Scarymovie

The clear comparison of religious uncertainty and terror weighed against the terror of the demonic, pagan, and the unknown is masterfully done. #THEVVITCH #ScaryMovie

How exactly did that baby get taken? #ThEWITCH #scarymovie

Figured I’d kick this off by giving my thoughts on “The VVItch” as I watch it for the first time! Initial impression - the floating shadow on the wagon scene was weirdly, deeply unsettling. #ScaryMovies
