Man guess I’m in the minority for this on this forum but Hereditary is the pinnacle horror movie for me, I’ve seen it like 6 times and love it every single time. Doesn’t resort to jump scares, acting is incredible and the movie is just a batshit thrillride the entire time. I think I’m different when I watch movies as I don’t really care if something has done a similar concept before because usually the execution is different enough which it is here. Also this movie introduced the head banging possession scene thing, at least 3 movies this year and last have all had a similar scene.
Because it was more important to have Denzel than be historically accurate.
