The Wailing
the wailing is what happens when a village horror movie decides it's also a story about faith, doubt, and how impossible it is to know who to trust when the evidence keeps changing

nothing is confirmed until it's too late, and even then you're not sure you should believe it
the shaman ritual scene alone is one of the most intense things i've ever sat through, cross-cut with something quieter and more devastating happening at the same time
