watching HEREDITARY in a packed theater (with *bright projection*) is one of life’s great and terrible pleasures. go see it this weekend. bring your whole family.
it’s very important that you bring your whole family.
say the words exactly as they’re written on the page.
your sacrifice will be rewarded in the end.

Toni Collette does *at least* three different things in this movie that might fuck you up forever.
imagine a supernatural creep-fest like THE CONJURING, but told with the patience of THE WITCH, the emotional depth of THE BABADOOK, and the kind of scares that that James Wan would kill for.
curious how it hangs together the second time around (scary movies tend to lose their edge, but a part of me suspects this one might get even better), but for now this feels like a *major* debut.

i’m so goddamn glad i avoided all of the trailers and info on what this movie was about. the way the camera movements and lighting in this movie play on the audience’s expectiations of horror to build tension without jump scares is so fucking outstanding that i’m already mad that the cinematographer of this movie probably doesn’t win an oscar in 2019

Hereditary busted through our doors, confident and blazing. Hereditary doesn't let the genre define what it can be. Hereditary takes your head and slams it…

Hereditary is one of the best horror films I've seen in a long time.
When so many horror films rely on cheap jump scares, it's nice to see a genuinely terrifying and disturbing horror movie. When I pay to see a horror movie I want to see some genuinely frightening stuff and Hereditary delivers. This film doesn't shy away from violence or vile imagery at risk of offending the audience or making them uncomfortable.
The film does an excellent job building an erie setting with its camera work, lighting and score. I've been a fan of Colin Stetsons music for a long time and his style of music fits this film perfectly. The score manages to be both creepy and… -
