Eyes of Fire (1983 Folk Horror Movie)

Due to the success of The Witch and Midsommar, folk horror has become a trendy subgenre in the past decade, but it has its roots in films made as early as the 1950s. While The Wicker Man (1973) is the most famous example, there are numerous, lesser-known entries as well. One such film is 1983's Eyes of Fire. Boasting some impressive visual effects and cinematography, it shares a plot similar to The Witch but was largely forgotten until recently. It's DIY horror cinema to its core, with all the baggage that brings.
