Enys Men (Cornish for 'Stone Island') is a 2022 British experimental psychological folk horror film shot, composed, written and directed by Mark Jenkin. Shot on 16 mm film, it stars Mary Woodvine, Edward Rowe, Flo Crowe and John Woodvine.
Enys Men can be regarded as the latest entry in the folk horror genre, and it’s one of the best yet, right up there with the grandaddy of them all, The Wicker Man, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year. Interestingly, I think the two films are linked by the same timeframe – the lead-up to May Day 1973.
