What it’s about
In 13th-century England, a mysterious creature attacks village after village. As deaths mount, local superstitions and myths grow terrifyingly real.
What hooks you
Robert Eggers directs from a script he wrote with Sjón. The cast includes Willem Dafoe, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Ralph Ineson, and Lily-Rose Depp. Shot on 35mm film, the production initially considered black-and-white but instead used a colour stock overlaid with a monochrome texture. The dialogue is in Middle English.
Who it’s for
It will appeal to those who enjoy historical horror where dread builds slowly from folklore and superstition. It will also suit viewers who like atmospheric period settings and creature features grounded in a bleak, wintry past.
