Candyman (1992)

1927 classic about a newlywed couple facing the consequences of an ancient witch's curse placed on their home.

Curses of the Witch

Fréwaka

In seventeenth-century Basque Country, Kattalin flees her abusive husband in the dead of night and disappears into the forest. There, she encounters three women washing clothes by a river, telling each other terrifying tales and local gossip. As their stories unfold, Kattalin recognises more and more people and events from her own life. Before she knows it, she becomes part of the very stories the women are telling.

Kattalin wanders through a mysterious forest where folktales and seventeenth-century superstitions come to life.

Gaua

A horror writer visits an Irish inn to scatter his parents' ashes, unaware the property is said to be haunted by a witch.

The Wicker Man

The Witch

In a British medieval village lives the 'Fisherwoman' (Olivia Colman): eternally single, a little scruffy and always the butt of the joke. When she's had enough of her narrow-minded neighbours one day, she asks the local basket weaver to weave her the perfect man out of wicker. And who better than Alexander Skarsgård to fulfill that role?

A sexy wicker man with the features of Alexander Skarsgård and a 4-week delivery time? Too bad this is just a fairytale and not a documentary.

He's broad-shouldered, strong as an ox, and faithful as a dog; he fixes your roof when it leaks and your bed when you've just wrecked it together; he has the contours and voice of Alexander Skarsgård; he keeps saying things like: 'That I can see the sun and the sea is all thanks to you.' The _Wicker Husband_ is, in short, the perfect husband. That this dream of a man is made of wicker, and therefore looks a bit like a monstrous, walking basket, hardly seems to bother anyone. Rarely have we seen so many happy faces on our feed as after the trailer for _Wicker_ dropped. 'The girls are choosing the basket over the men', as someone put it in one of the thousands of reaction videos. The women in the medieval village of _Wicker_ are all jealous of the Fisherwoman (Olivia Colman), who had a travelling master basket weaver make the _Wicker Husband_ and is now the only one no longer stuck with love-free, orgasm-free evenings. Compared to the new straw arrival, the village's boorish men turn out even more boorish than expected, because they don't dance, they don't say sweet things, and they certainly don't contribute anything to the household. Such a shame that _Wicker_ is just a fairytale and not a documentary. We want to move in with a sexy, soulful object too. Or was there another moral to this story? We didn't quite catch it, busy thinking about a broken bed and a leaking roof that still need fixing.

Alexander Skarsgård is the man and basket of your dreams.
