I liked it. Reminded me of growing up in my house. Ma would always walk the house all night and watch and creep on people in the dark. Like you would have a crack in your door and when you peek through she would already be looking through the crack in pitch dark.

Always at around 3 0 clock she would sometimes just be watching over you when you sleep in your room.

Great movie , great creep factor. It isn't scary in your typical horror sense though

Anyone looking for more horror should check out 'The Ritual' on Netflix and the 'Suspiria' remake on Prime Video. Enjoyed both of those, too and they both have some similarities to Hereditary.

The ritual was good.

None of the above. There are maybe two or three gory scenes, but it's more psychological than anything and the psychology behind the gore is by far more unsettling than the gore itself. The horror is in the slow, uncomfortable build to the final 15 minutes, which is at that point filled with nothing but trepidation and shock. The movie works on you mentally, slowly wearing you down before hitting you with a hopeless, unrelenting wave of dread at the conclusion. You feel as helpess and confused as the protagonist, and thats why it's so effective of a horror film.

all of this. The psychological parts of the family dynamic were really upsetting and the horror / supernatural parts weaved in and out of that really well.

I couldn’t get past the car scene. I turned it off and never resumed it.

 

[luciddreamer]

It was spooky in some scenes, but movie is mostly unsettling, i enjoyed it....
That midsommar shyt now is what scares me, mainly because shyt like that really goes down in real life, actually one of my many fears.

Apt synopsis.

Hereditary was one of the best horror films I've ever seen due to its use of literally devices like symbolism, foreshadowing, etc. Midosmmar was wack though.
