Whenever I come by this thread I see the text below the header that reads “Hereditary is the worst recent movie I can remember seeing” and I’ve never been so firm in disagreeing.
Hereditary is one of the greatest horror films ever made and perhaps the best one of the 21st century. It will stand the test of time and still be looked at fondly generations from now.
It has scenes about grief, shock, mental illness and alienation from family that are as good as any Oscar winning drama. Toni Collette was awesome. What more do people want in a horror film?
Maybe the above mentioned touches didn’t jive with the supernatural plot and seemed ridiculous to some, but it’s a horror movie, of course you gotta suspend disbelief.
This movie made my skin crawl like only a few horror movies ever have. It was uncomfortable and horrifying. I highly recommend it.
