A Field in England
Directed by Ben Wheatley
England: 1648 AD. A small group of deserters flee from a raging battle through an overgrown field. They are captured by two men: O'Neil and Cutler. O'Neil (Michael Smiley), an alchemist, forces the group to aid him in his search to find a hidden treasure that he believes is buried in the field. Crossing a vast mushroom circle, which provides their first meal, the group quickly descend into a chaos of arguments, fighting and paranoia, and they slowly become victim to the terrifying energies trapped inside the field. A FIELD IN ENGLAND is a psychedelic trip into magic and madness from Ben Wheatley – award-winning director of KILL LIST and SIGHTSEERS.
A group of English Civil War soldiers are captured by an alchemist and fall victim to violent and nightmarish forces.
Cast: Julian Barratt, Peter Ferdinando, Richard Glover, Reece Shearsmith, Michael Smiley

Absolutely bizarre, gory, has two penises in it, but I loved it. I can't think of much like it. it's not a Stalker, it's not a Brotherhood of the Wolf, it's not a lot of things, but it is low budget and does a lot with that.
monty python does folk horror. loved it. there was a wizard battle so i was sold
not for everyone but a masterpiece none the less
Not at all sure what I just watched, but I loved it!!
