Robert Eggers’ The Witch receiving new limited edition 4K and Blu-ray release

March 30, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

Second Sight Films has announced that Robert Eggers’ 2015 acclaimed directorial debut The Witch is set to receive a new limited edition 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray run on April 18th; check out the cover artwork and special feature details below…

UPDATE: Second Sight has announced that is has delayed the release to June 20th 2022, as it is currently working on a new HDR grade supervised by director Robert Eggers.

New England, 1630: An English farmer (Ralph Ineson– Game of Thrones, The Green Knight) – upon threat of banishment by the church – leaves his colonial plantation and relocates to a remote plot, surrounded by an ominous forest, with his wife (Kate Dickie –  Prevenge, Red Road) and their children… But deep in the dark woods lurks an unknown evil.

Strange and unsettling things start to occur, animals turn malevolent, crops start to fail. Then one of the children disappears and another becomes worryingly sick, could he be possessed by an evil spirit? With mounting paranoia, suspicion falls on eldest daughter Thomasin (Anya Taylor-Joy – The Queen’s Gambit, Last Night in Soho) and they accuse her of witchcraft… then darkness descends.
