Movies like The School for Good and Evil

“The School for Good and Evil (2022) is a United States 2020s folk-horror dark-fantasy that frames a fairy-tale boarding school as a site of moral sorting. It stages the central antagonism—two friends placed on opposing moral vectors—through high-contrast chiaroscuro, layered mise-en-scène, and steady measured pacing. The film argues that performing heroism and villainy reshapes identity, compelling viewers to reassess simplistic moral binaries.”
