Shunning a world that they consider insufficiently God-fearing, William (Ineson), Katherine (Dickie, Red Road) and their five children decamp to a spartan farmstead on the edge of the New England wilderness in 1630. When their youngest son goes missing whilst in the care of their eldest daughter, Thomasin (Taylor-Joy), and their life-sustaining crops fail, the parents’ inconsolable grief soon spawns familial recriminations – which are increasingly fuelled by the suspicion of evil forces lurking in the forest. Writer-director Robert Eggers’s first feature benefits from intensely atmospheric surroundings. The performances, especially those of Taylor-Joy, Dickie and Ineson, are suffused with darkly conflicting emotions. Plus the archaic English dialect renders all the more impactful a film that’s startling in its avoidance of predictable horror-genre tropes.
