IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Robert Eggers’ long-awaited follow-up to his break-out horror hit The Witch is a chilling and brilliantly realised paranoia piece that’s anchored by striking black-and-white cinematography and two outstanding performances from Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe.
