Rating: 4/4 -- Its masterful blending of the sacred and the blasphemous makes it not just a great horror film, but perhaps the first true horror masterpiece of the new century. Full Review

Rather than try to establish any tension, Eggers prefers to utilize poor jump scares sporadically between artfully composed shots, all of which amounts to little. Full Review

Rating: 8.5/10 -- The horror is cumulative, and the escalating, asymmetrical shape of Eggers' story is a nice change of pace for the genre. Full Review

The Witch is visually resplendent, aurally meticulous, and singularly crafted to evoke dread from opening to close. Full Review

Rating: 3.5/5 -- An odd mixture of fanatical religious paranoia and actual supernatural horror, which creates a fascinating, successful hybrid. Full Review

Seems like it was created out of the Platonic ideal of a Hammer-period horror film, with all of the creep and none of the camp. Full Review
