During the Civil War in 17th-Century England, a small group of deserters flee from a raging battle through an overgrown field. They are captured by an alchemist, who 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, as it becomes clear that the treasure might be something other than gold, they slowly become victim to the terrifying energies trapped inside the field.

this undoubtably trippy film is surreal & errie. it has a patient pace that leaves the viewer time to ponder it's dark mystery

A trippy historical horror. Just what you’d expect from Ben Wheatley.

Genuinely made me feel sick to my stomach. Brilliant, risky, gratuitous, repulsive, and so unrelentingly unique that it's hard to rate.

Ever feel like a movie was made for you? Odd, esoretic, deep symbolism, incredibly visual; John Dee's occult shroom trip in film form.

There's a lot I don't understand about this movie. But I love it

Quite a bizarre ride! Might require a second watch to grasp it completely, but a quality film in general

An interesting concept film hampered by occasional indulgent scenes and a meandering pace, with austere performances that keep with the tone

Commitment of the 3 leads transported me back in time. A wholly unique, trippy story.Once it takes off… 🤯 A rewatch or 2 definitely needed.

My only wish for this is more fiber near the end. It's definitely a good watch, with a plot that's as trippy as the mushrooms they eat.

Definitely not for everyone, a bizarre but good watch if you’re into arthouse, great use of techniques
