I've also recently watched The Witch and would consider myself among it's fans. I was worried that the 'Black Philip' scene would be cringe-worthy but it wasn't, I thought it was pretty well done actually. The only bad point I have against it really is that I thought that the whole puberty/sexuality metaphor was a bit heavy handed. Otherwise a great film!
The kid playing Caleb was really good, and Kate Dickie as mother was as good as she always is.
