Looking forward to seeing this over the weekend.
OWH review -
"You could accurately call the movie “scary.” (It’s the scariest movie of the year by default.) But a better word for “Hereditary” — the stunning debut feature of writer/director Ari Aster — is traumatizing.
The film features images you’ll wish you could unseen, plumbs emotions you’ll wish you could unfeel. It has maybe the worst death in any movie ever and the second-worst death, too.
It's a Satanic jack-in-the-box horrorshow, but one grounded in the white-hot terror of everyday human suffering.
This review is less a recommendation (although it is also a recommendation, a strong one) than it is a dare."
