Robert Eggers" The Witch (2015) releases in movie theaters this upcoming February 22, 2016. Many are claiming that this film is pretty good, so I am stoked to see this movie when it becomes available. The Witch teases witchcraft, black magic, and possession. Anya Taylor-Joy, Ralph Ineson, and Kate Dickie star in The Witch.

Synopsis / Plot Summary: Set in New England circa 1630, "The Witch" follows a farmer who get cast out of his colonial plantation and is forced to move his family to a remote plot of land on the edge of an ominous forest rumored to be controlled by witches. Almost immediately, strange and unsettling things begin to happen-the animals turn violent, the crops fail, and one of the children disappears, only to return seemingly possessed by an evil spirit. As suspicion and paranoia mount, everyone begins to point the finger at teenage daughter Thomasin. They accuse her of witchcraft, which she adamantly denies...but as circumstances become more and more treacherous, each family member"s faith, loyalty, and love will be tested in shocking and unforgettable ways.
