Bring your baby-sized mortar and pestle and cherished silver cup to the party because we're discussing Robert Eggers' feature directorial debut: the audacious folk horror film The Witch (2015)! Joining us for the conversation is Hammer Time podcast co-host Becky Darke!

Join us as we marvel at all of the research Eggers did to ensure maximum authenticity, crafting a period film thats as scary as it is stomach-churning. That it all ends in a (somewhat debatable) "good for her" ending is just the icing on the cake.

Plus: big witchy tits, inky darkness courtesy of all the natural lighting, being "allergic to exposition," and a ringing endorsement from the Satanic Temple.
