Crooked Table Podcast - The world of film from a fresh angle
Director Robert Eggers burst on the scene in 2015 with The Witch. And when he did, horror audiences didn't know quite how to react. The film -- subtitled "A New England folktale" -- follows a Puritan family in 1600s New England and its inevitable descent into hell. However, its period setting, era-accurate dialect, and slowly building tension came across as jarring to audiences accustomed to jump scares and slasher films. Amy Otero joins the show this episode to help us analyze what makes The Witch such a powerful and distinctive cinematic experience. We'll touch on Anya Taylor-Joy's star-making performance, the truth behind the film's divisive ending, and the thematic similarities between Eggers' The Witch and Ari Aster's Midsommar. We'll even throw in a bit of a mini-review for Eggers' sophomore effort, 2019's The Lighthouse. Ready to live deliciously? Then listen in as we tackle The Witch. SYNOPSIS In 1630 New England, panic and despair envelop a farmer (Ralph Ineson), his wife (Kate Dickie), and their children when youngest son, Samuel, suddenly vanishes. The family blames Thomasin (Anya Taylor-Joy), the oldest daughter who was watching the boy at the time of his disappearance. With suspicion and paranoia mounting, twin siblings Mercy (Ellie Grainger) and Jonas (Lucas Dawson) suspect Thomasin of witchcraft, testing the clan's faith, loyalty, and love to one another.

Will audiences remain Split over M. Night Shyamalan? Short answer, yes. Long answer, here in this episode. For starters: the newer generation or Millennials are unwitting to Shyamalan's filmmaking pedigree. They did not have to suffer or endure the turbulent times of the early 2000’s when Shyamalan made films consistently. People bought tickets wanting that good old feeling from The Sixth Sense and in return received Signs; which we learned alien hate is real, The Village; maybe too much twist in the twist ending; and Lady in the Water, too much talking, no ghosts. Moviegoers today are unaware of the seesaw ride Shyamalan put us through after The Sixth Sense debut at the 2003 Cannes Festival (the movie tied with Captain Conan that year for the top prize). Shyamalan was heralded as the next Alfred Hitchcock or some offshoot of the famous British Master of Suspense. We expected each film he produced after Sixth Sense to frightened the bejeezus out of us with his shrillmatic style. However, that didn’t happen. The thrill was gone but not necessarily eliminated.
