Spooky Movies this season: a thread.
The Village. [2004, dir. M. Night Shyamalan]

I really enjoyed it, Bryce's character is so sweet and strong. The music is beautiful, too. I jumped from my chair a few times 😅.

And, the twits in the story were surprising to me.
Las brujas de Salem (The crucible)
[1996, dir. Nicholas Hytner]

This one here shows how a person can collectively manipulate and influence an entire community just to do her wish.

Winona's character (and performance) makes you loathe her, and the final scene is just on point.
The Witch. [2015, dir. Robert Eggers]

This one really gave me shivers. It's dark and the sobrenatural elements are there. I like the way the folklore was shown.

Also, it reminds me some stories of my own town, so it makes everything extra terrifying. This is a must.
Midsommar. [2019, dir. Ari Aster]

Mind-blowing is how I would describe this one here. I wasn’t expecting many of the twist in the story. At the end I was still processing the whole plot.

The cinematography is really nice, and the music gave me shivers. It’s a good one.
Black Death. [2010, dir. Christopher Smith]

It’s enjoyable; maybe the characters and the plot are missing a little bit of development, but it’s a good movie to watch for this season.

The cast is good and the climax of the story is a plus.
La prometida del diablo [2016, dir. Saara Cantell]

Based on a true story. The performances and cinematography of this one is great. The story is, also, amazingly written.

It’s a very good option to watch in this season, and to learn a little more about the subject.
Gretel and Hansel [2020, dir. Oz Perkinz]

The story is good. I like that it’s sort of a mix between the traditional fairy tale and the folklore that involves witchcraft.

The cinematography is minimalistic but very nice and the performances are good, too.
Dracula Untold [2014, dir. Gary Shore]

This is one of those movies you watch on a weekend evening. The story is nice and the costume design is amazing.

Another huge plus is the music, in charge of the talented Ramin Djawadi. Maybe not a must, but definitely very enjoyable.
With these I conclude this thread. Those are just the movies we watch along this October, of course, it could be more.

So, prepare popcorns and a big glass of soda and enjoy this, with yourself, or in company.
