And in this super male-dominated society, the evil witch is also women's fears and ambivalence and fantasies and desire about their own power." From a contemporary perspective, looking back, it's clear that in the early modern period, the evil witch men's fears and ambivalence and fantasies about female power.


But it's so blatant how feminism rises to the top. Eggers said, "I wanted this to be presented without judgment, to just tell this particular story. This is why the movie feels relevant and fascinating today, despite its 1630s setting. In an interview with The Verge, Robert Eggers talked about the feminist message of The Witch. She gives one of the best horror movie performances when she realizes that she has magical powers that she can now access.

If that wasn't strange and confusing enough, the goat becomes a man who says that if she writes her name in a book and takes off her clothing, she will be wealthy, happy, and comfortable. Thomasin wakes up in her cabin and is surprised to find a goat talking to her. The New England town is full of chaos, as Katherine (Kate Dickie) hurts Thomasin and Thomasin murders Katherine. The Witch ending is as dark as the rest of the movie.
