Like The VVitch, the attempt here is to elevate horror with history, so the first stretch of the movie involves gypsy encampments being razed by colonists in grey miserable scenes that depict real historical horrors, but then we are expected to care about a monster horror that in comparison is turgid and plodding, not half as interesting as the history.
