Erik M. @WeAllGoALittleMad May 28 Surprised at how few reviews there are for this. A hidden gem on Shudder. Outstanding performances. Powerful story. Absolutely worth multiple watches. See more Sam P @laniakea May 27 Folk horror done right. No jump scares, no franchise safety net. Just creeping, suffocating dread built with patience and purpose, rooted in the ancient Dutch legend of the Witte Wieven, ghost witches said to haunt the deep woods. Director Didier Konings, a former Hollywood concept artist, learned what the studios do with limitless budgets and came home to show what vision and restraint can achieve without one. The result is atmospheric, bleak, and genuinely unsettling in ways most modern horror has completely forgotten how to be. Hollywood, take note. This is how it's done. See more Jessica H @RT03263521 May 15 Great acting, creative and beautiful cinematography. Limited interaction with the "dark forces lurking in the woods," and lacking storytelling of the folklore. Felt mostly like a dark mystery or drama, plot focused on social stigma and relationship dynamics of a religious fanatic community See more Ew I @EWMOVIE May 13 Beautifully shot and acted. Excellent folk horror. Only an hour long so it flew by. I’d love to see more character development and the storyline could have had something more original in there. There was time for it but maybe no desire from that from filmmaker. But as a short film it’s fantastic. It was realised stunningly well. See more Thomas S. @RT61819216 May 10 Great movie. Suspenseful, creepy, and if you aren’t a man baby then it has great commentary on life as a medieval woman. Great visuals. If you like folk horror give it a watch See more h W. @realhappyharry May 8 Very good witch flick. Moody, dark, atmospheric. Those reviews that complained it was “woke” don’t understand that it WAS all about domineering religious zealots persecuting and torturing women, it actually was. See more Read all reviews
