The Witch: A New England Folktale: Part 1 of 2

This week we're deep in 1630s New England for The Witch (2015). Robert Eggers' slow-burn folk horror about a Puritan family exiled to the edge of the wilderness, and what starts picking them off once they're alone in it. Kelli walks Kristin, Leah, and Alisan through a recap of The Witch. The disappearance of baby Samuel, the family's unraveling faith, and the goat who steals the entire movie. Plus, our usual sidebar: could any of us actually survive alone in the woods? This one came recommended by Kristin's daughter as a certified Gen Z cult classic, and it more than earns the label.
