Best I could do
Horror Movie: 1800s Witch
Default (GPT-3.5)
I vaguely recall the trailer and earmarked it as something to watch. I think this was in the 2010s (most likely) but it could have been from earlier I suppose.Family move into a house / cabin / community. Spooky stuff happens. Set in what seems like rural USA. Possibility some religious / cultish thing. Possibly set in 1800s! Trailer had an emphasis on unseen stuff going on outside in the woods (maybe). Family had at least one daughter but I think two.
The description you've provided sounds like it could match several horror movies or TV shows, but one possibility that comes to mind is "The Witch" (2015). It's set in the 1630s in New England and follows a Puritan family who experiences supernatural events and possible involvement with a witch in a rural, wooded area. The film has elements of religious and cultish themes. It might be the one you're thinking of, but there could be other titles that fit your description as well.
It's not the witch
I understand that it's not "The Witch." The description you provided could fit various horror movies or TV shows, so it might be a bit challenging to pinpoint the exact one without more specific details. If you remember any additional information or elements from the trailer or the storyline, please feel free to share, and I'll do my best to assist you in identifying the movie or show you're thinking of.
Can you list a few films that fit this description?
Certainly, here are a few films that share some similarities with your description of a family moving into a house or rural area in the USA, spooky occurrences, and possibly cult or religious elements:
- "The Village" (2004) - Directed by M. Night Shyamalan, it's set in a 19th-century village where strange and ominous things happen in the surrounding woods.
- "Sinister" (2012) - This film follows a true-crime writer who moves his family into a new home and discovers disturbing home movies in the attic.
- "The Sacrament" (2013) - A found footage horror film that involves a documentary crew visiting a remote religious commune.
- "The Lodge" (2019) - A psychological horror film where a stepmother and her two children are snowed in at a remote cabin and unsettling events occur.
- "We Are Still Here" (2015) - In this film, a couple moves to a remote New England house and experiences supernatural occurrences.
Please note that your description is somewhat broad, so these are just a few possibilities. If none of these match the film you have in mind, additional details could help narrow it down further.
