it's not that deep moron. in the movie you either are born a witch or not, you cant really become one, the point is basically that she was a witch all along
Wow how do you look at yourself in the mirror you lying dickless little toad? Roger Eggers is all about ambiguity and allowing the audience to interpret his work. He would not and did not say that the message of The Witch is “you either are born a witch or not, you cant really become one, the point is basically that she was a witch all along”
So the scene were Satan appears and wants her to sign her name in his book means nothing to you? She wasn't born a witch, she became one when she signed the book.
When Adam and Eve were expelled from the garden of Eden God turned his back on them and their descendants for all eternity. Eventually he sent his son to suffer and die for their sins and show them the way to heaven. Jesus brought the word of God to humanity and now it is up to humanity to listen to that word and live a life of virtue in-line with the scripture. God watches and listens silently, and only accepts the purist and most deserving spirits into paradise. On the other hand, the devil is everywhere. He tempts you always, is always ready to speak to you, and can and will take anyone who isn’t careful and give them the hollow and agathokakological gifts of worldly pleasure in return for their everlasting soul.
>When Adam and Eve were expelled from the garden of Eden God turned his back on them and their descendants for all eternity.
YHWH favors Noah (a descendant of Adam and Eve), Abraham, Moses. He specifically talks about his people always turning against him, and being stiff-necked... but then he always helps them when they turn back to him in the stories. If he abandoned them, I don't think this would be happening.
>Eventually he sent his son to suffer and die for their sins and show them the way to heaven.
Heaven is not a place. Heaven refers to "the heavens" because YHWH is an Israelite/Canaanite storm/sky god. There is also no afterlife in the sense of a paradise given in the stories.
>Jesus brought the word of God to humanity
I'm really not so sure about this. Moses, Elijah, Isaiah, etc certainly did. YHWH also spoke directly to many other people and appeared to them directly. Moses and YHWH even spoke face to face several times. YHWH doesn't directly appear as a character in the New Testament as he does in the Talmud. His presence is inferred and sort of attributed to many things. The message Jesus provides is also much, MUCH different from what came before in many, many cases.
>and now it is up to humanity to listen to that word and live a life of virtue in-line with the scripture.
The scripture says to make burnt offerings daily, but Paul pointed out how useless that was.
It also says that you must make offerings for sins; and once a year, the entire tribe must put all their sins on a goat and kill it to atone for the year. There are other examples - don't eat pork and other dietary rules, but Jesus says it's not what goes into a man's mouth that defiles him (rather what comes out of it).

>God watches and listens silently, and only accepts the purist and most deserving spirits into paradise.
YHWH listens to prayers yes, but there is no paradise after living. There are no pure and deserving spirits. YHWH rewards people during their lives for honoring him and the rules he gives people and following his instructions to the tee - but there is no afterlife or gold star upon dying or paradise in the stories.
>On the other hand, the devil is everywhere. He tempts you always, is always ready to speak to you, and can and will take anyone who isn’t careful and give them the hollow and agathokakological gifts of worldly pleasure in return for their everlasting soul.
There is no "devil". There is no "satan". The entity appears in 2-3 stories and always with the definite article "the" in the form "hashatan" which just means "the accuser" or "the adversary". In the context of Genesis, the adversary or "bad guy" is just a plot device to trick Eve. In Job, there's another mention of the "bad guy" who just is a plot device to get YHWH to frick with Job. But it's not the same thing, and there is no specific entity it is referring to.

>I didn’t have a lot of gas in the tank, really,” Ineson says of sparring with the beast, who weighed about 50 pounds more than him. “He was horrible. Really, really horrible. From the moment we set eyes on each other it was just kind of hate at first sight. He had two modes: chilling out and doing nothing, or attacking me.
>On the fourth day of filming, Charlie rammed his serrated horns into Ineson’s ribs, dislodging a tendon. “Everything hurt,” Inerson recalls. “I spent the rest of the five-week shoot on painkillers.
>In the end, several elaborate Black Phillip sequences had to be abandoned.
>Despite having gotten the shot, Eggers says he would not work with Charlie again. But Anna Kilch, Charlie’s wrangler, insists Charlie did the job and did it well: “It was a difficult shot, but he did it perfectly quite a few times so we were really happy with him.”
Kek, goats are fricking buttholes. I hung out with a friend of mine while he fed a goat one time and this fricker was trying to eat my bag, so my friend told him off.
Billy did not like it. Billy took two steps back and rammed me into the fence. Bruised my ribs terribly.
Absolutely kino animals.
when I was a kid (lol) I used to visit my aunt's farm in the summer. She had a bunch of small stocky goats fricking about, bullying all the weaker animals (poultry, cats, dogs). We used to spend whole afternoons just chasing after them, ramming them into the grass, baiting them into an ambush with a nice branch. They never got tired, endless fun. I hope I can have a small pack of goats one day.
pridefully left congregation
What was his crime though? I can't recall a reason why they chucked him out, other than him being maybe too hardcore even for a Puritan.
Pride. He said it himself, that he was “infected with the filth of pride” and begged god to “dispose of him however he saw fit” but not to send his children to hell
the specific action isn't known but it's implied he's just too hardcore and they want him to take his holier than thou bullshit elsewhere. he was probably harassing people in public.
Also she had become like Lot’s wife and looked back when she shouldn’t have and then later on signed the book. But yeah she had that monologue about how she felt unfaithful to her husband in her heart which is prob how evil got in
>What the frick did it all mean?
Even if you give it your all and be as devout and pious as can be and pray all the time, God still will leave you to die and rot in the wilderness (because "lol, I'm so mysterious")

These vassal peasants want to ban Americans from an American website dedicated to American culture film and television
Unironically, this and every board on Cinemaphile would be immensely better if all third world shitskins and vassals were rangebanned.
Giving peasants technology (and food and medicine and everything else) was a huge mistake

Lol the fact you’re serious is hilarious
So the girl was the witch all along right? Like a fight club sort of deal.
She was the one alone with baby at the start.
She was flirting with her brother.
She was alone with the other kids near the end in that pen thing.
It's not a horror fantasy movie. It's set in a world where witches are real and people know it. So it's more like a crime thriller. This goes for all Eggbert movies.
I'm a huge b***h when it comes to horror, but this movie intrigues me. Is it actually scary? I can handle unsettling imagery, I just really hate jump scares or movies that threaten to jump scare you the whole fricking time.
i never said he was. i'm just quoting this like any other book of stories. spider-man's uncle was named 'ben'. replying 'spider-man isn't real' to that doesn't really change that it's true in the story and that's all you should take it as.

i'm not spouting anything from judaism. i'm looking at the old testament and new testament. all that stuff is still there even in the christian holy book. they still, for some reason, believe in all that 1000 BC Canaanite mythology despite not following much of it anymore in favor of following Jesus (but specifically Paul's) teachings.
Nothing. It meant nothing. Its simply a story about a witch.
Women fricking love butter.
lovley cheeks
live
deliciously
Swadians confirmed as women
brat
women are evil
it's not that deep moron. in the movie you either are born a witch or not, you cant really become one, the point is basically that she was a witch all along
That’s not the point you window licking village idiot
What's the point?
yes it is moron. it's about predisposition to mental illness, the director even said it. maybe stop drinking glue
Wow how do you look at yourself in the mirror you lying dickless little toad? Roger Eggers is all about ambiguity and allowing the audience to interpret his work. He would not and did not say that the message of The Witch is “you either are born a witch or not, you cant really become one, the point is basically that she was a witch all along”
he did, and if you weren't such a moronic idiot you'd see how obvious it is anyway
You got so much shit in your head it’s clogging up your ears and spilling out your mouth boy
Idiot
So the scene were Satan appears and wants her to sign her name in his book means nothing to you? She wasn't born a witch, she became one when she signed the book.
he never said anything even remotely like that. I don't even need to look it up to know that's impossible.
>window licking village idiot
>hi everyone I’m a moron
Hello
It's about how Calvinist doctrine is evil and heretical
case in point
Bloody good farmer.
Kino voice
I bet ya demon witch that I can throw ya shoes over the cottage double or quits
it meant we got to see her buttocks
it was a witchhunt but she was the only one who wasn't corrupted and it eventually became a self fulfilling prophecy, high kino

I do love Twins of Evil. Could make for a good double-feature with The Witch.
Envying the daughter who she believes is seducing her husband and son.
she literally apologizes to him for being a shrew so idk whichever sin = being an angry b***h wife who won't frick your husband
Also she had become like Lot’s wife and looked back when she shouldn’t have and then later on signed the book. But yeah she had that monologue about how she felt unfaithful to her husband in her heart which is prob how evil got in
It's the film adaptation of schizo-religious ramblings from the 1600s. Nothing deeper than that.
Also works as a very literal interpretation of 1 Cor 5:5. Getting handed over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh that they might be saved
I just watched this movie again last weekend. Why does she tell the twins she was a witch at the brook? Were the twins possessed?
Just older sister shit to mess with them.

You'll be fine. It's a "slow burn" period piece with an ominous atmosphere rather than being actually scary. I can't recall any explicit jump scares.
She didn’t want butter she wanted an orgasm. That’s why she succumbed to satan’s influence. Puritan theology is satanic
Americans love butter so much that they're prepared to sell their soul for tub of lurpak.

They were English in the movie.
