THE WITCH: A NEW ENGLAND FOLK TALE (2015) | MA15+As thought-provoking as it is visually compelling, The Witch delivers a deeply unsettling exercise in slow-building horror. In 1630 New England, panic and despair envelops a farmer, his wife 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 and Jonas suspect Thomasin of witchcraft, testing the clan's faith, loyalty and love to one another.

THE LIGHTHOUSE (2019) | MA15+
A gripping story, brilliantly filmed and led by a pair of powerhouse performances, The Lighthouse established Robert Eggers as a filmmaker of exceptional talent. It stars Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson in a hypnotic and hallucinatory tale of two lighthouse keepers on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s. A rich and strange sea yarn that overflows with Beckettian absurdity, as these men look, while waiting for ‘relief’, into the abyss of both their elemental isolation and their infernal companionship with each other.
