I thought the plot was pretty straightforward and coherent. It didn't need any extra explanation or exposition, in fact it feels better for not having anything extra.

More people have been executed by the police for being black/lower class/drug users/mentally ill/homeless/simply expendable just last year than all the people that were killed in Salem. Not to mention the work of our military overseas. You're making an excellent point, all these people getting offended because of the

I thought the daughter joins up because at that point there's not much else for her to do. Her entire family is gone. There's no food. Winter is coming. The community banished her family long ago, she can't just go strolling back all by herself, whistling innocently and not making eye contact. If they didn't

Well, for starters (*spoilers*), a baby being snatched away and later shown on a slab being inspected by a slightly-out-of-focus old naked woman who takes a knife and places it an inch away from his flesh. Then the old naked woman is seen clearly churning blood and flecks of fat into a paste, rubbing it all over

Cheney: "Things can be arranged…"

Her tear down of her father was such a satisfying moment. Also, it's "1630ith"

Those little shits were fucking around something fierce. The conclusions of each character were heartbreaking to me, except those two, theirs was very very satisfying.

Baa-Boom!

mmmmm, baby butter

Deserving of Top Comment status.

No scares? As in no "BAH!!!" moments? There were plenty of moments where I was scared, but not in a jump scare sense.

I saw it yesterday as a Sunday matinee and I think you're right. It really worked in that setting.

Scrimshaw was dazzling me right from the start, when Caleb turns around and beckons Thomasin to leave the courtroom. I was legit disappointed when he met the witch, had one of those "No That was my favorite character!" moments. The movie's still fresh in my mind, but he probably gets the top performance spot for me.

I mean, in the movies defense, all children are awful. Those twins weren't going to be anything other than little shits.

That was my takeaway as well. Even though the evil was shown to be real, it can still be considered ambiguous until either of three moments: the blood in the pail, the final night, or Thomasin confronting Black Phillip. But I'd go even further and say that I still found it to ambiguous right through to the end whether

You might be onto something. I loved The Witch and The Babadook, but It Follows was the stinker. I appreciated it's creep-factor abilities, but overall I didn't like it.

His monologue there, and the scene where the mother jumps into the grave, drove me to tears. I was ranking the performances in the back of my head throughout the film and it was pretty much just between Caleb, Thomasin, and the mother, until his breakdown.

OH MY GOD HE'S BEHIND YOU!

"*clickclick* That's the sound of their stilettos… *clickclick*"

I just love that Hannibal Buress' hobo character is billed as "Hannibal" in the credits.
