No matter how it's advertised, it doesn't have to be viewed as a horror movie at all. Many scenes in the movie are disgusting. The carrion-like complexion and orange-skin-like skin of the witch in the forest are mashed into meat sauce. The baptized baby was painted all over the body, the father's cowardly and unresponsible, the mother's hysteria, the twin sisters' harsh voices and evil expressions. The only eldest son who gave a good impression also died of witchcraft, and the eldest daughter became a member of the forest witch. Faith and religion have not brought any comfort and happiness to this family, but they are still clinging to their own beliefs. Everyone gathers around to pray loudly, and make accusations of unknown right and wrong. What is the difference between them and cults? But this is just my first feeling after watching it. I didn't read the relevant information, didn't understand the background of the film, and talked nonsense.
