neutral · AI labelView post →What if Wicked was released in 1900? Here is my take on the book cover / movie poster using the designs W. W. Denslow and John R. Neill did for L. Frank Baum's original books. (I made the Witch green more for colour scheme but also it's fairly significant to Maguire's book)
neutral · AI labelView post →I recall some folks complaining that Eggars made a movie where New England witches were real, but that's what makes The Witch interesting: it's an exercise in taking the worldviews of the Puritan settlers seriously, in all of their repression, hysteria and terror.

neutral · AI labelView post →there's a real witch in THE WITCH, but the movie isn't trying to tell you the puritans were right to be afraid of witches. it's sublimating period anxieties into a tangible figure, like virtually every horror movie.
