I was looking up movie plots to get our discussion going and came across this. Before I was all the way through the plot I was thinking that it sounded pretty tired. Or to be more specific, I was thinking, "Oh it's a religious evil movie. Boring."
I was also struck by how the witch does turn out to be evil and not falsely accused, a more conventional approach to horror rather than the modern 'woke' approach where the pastors are probably the evil ones (which I admit to finding more relatable). Although there does seem to be a bishop of questionable ethics here.
Rotten Tomatoes agrees with me apparently: "Rarely scary and often dull, The Unholy falls back on the same tired tropes that have already been done to death by countless other religious horror movies."
Any thoughts?
