I know we're all prepping for the onslaught of fakery that's bound to hit tomorrow, but A24 Films has something going down that's 100% true. If you were one of the unlucky few who didn't get a chance to check out THE WITCH in theaters and would like opportunity, the film is hitting 666 screens this weekend! How metal is that?!?

Robert Eggers' tale of a family in 1630s New England who is seemingly torn apart by the forces of witchcraft doesn't go for the cheap, easy jump-scares. Instead, it relies heavily on the atmosphere of the locations, as well as the unease of the family situation. It's easily one of the most engaging films of 2016 so far (check out our review HERE), so if you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor and take part this weekend!
