The Devil's Bath
Directed by Veronika Franz, Severin Fiala
In 1750 Austria, a deeply religious woman named Agnes has just married her beloved, but her mind and heart soon grow heavy as her life becomes a long list of chores and expectations. Day after day, she is increasingly trapped in a murky and lonely path leading to evil thoughts, until the possibility of committing a shocking act of violence seems like the only way out of her inner prison. Giving a voice to the invisible and unheard women of the rural past, THE DEVIL’S BATH is based on historical court records about a shocking, hitherto unexplored chapter of European history.
From the directors of Goodnight Mommy, comes a chilling psychological descent into the rural past.
Cast: Anja Plaschg, David Scheid, Maria Hofstätter, Natalija Baranova, Camilla Schielin, Lorenz Tröbinger, Claudia Martini, Agnes Lampl, Lukas Walcher, Reinhold Felsinger, Elias Schützenhofer

BAD ASS MOVIE!!!
It seemed so authentic. A beautiful and beautifully created, morbid and tragic period piece. I loved it.
Fantastic. This is a real life horror film. I felt her pain throughout.
A good movie but has no business being here. As 'horror', it fails but as a drama is a worthy watch.
Not scary, slow plot too
