Hello.
Ryan Hollinger Certainly surprised me. Felt like a modern telling of Rosemary’s Baby but centered very much on grief.
The slowburn reminded me of The Witch, but I think that's kind of a common thing. I absolutely loved it.
It was like Witch meets Donnie Darko... The narrative itself didn't entirely satisfy me, but the atmosphere and aesthetic was so chilling I ended up loving it anyway.
Loved it! I’m rarely surprised and even more rarely shocked by horror films (heck any film if I’m honest) and this one got me. My jaw hung open long after the death of Charlie and the scene after... just incredible 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 I just so rarely get that experience at the theater and I really loved Hereditary for that.
the part when charlie died and her brother was just sitting there, not only high, but too disturbed to even look in the back because he knows what he had done literally made me want to throw up
He didn't tell her to stick her big head out the window
@@user-qn2ey6gk4m yea
кσσкιєѕ ™ this sent me lmaooo
The fact that he was blazed af made it worse for me like imagine being high at a moment like that ..jesus christ
He did try to get her to put her head back in. Who forgot Charlie's epi-pen? That is the real person culpable for her death. Also, Subarus are lesbian. If he had a truck, he would have crushed the carcass under wheel instead of swerving to avoid it.
Imagine being a demon lord and dying of a peanut allergy
welcome to my top 10 favourite youtube comments
Pahahaha!! And the Best comment ever award goes to...
LAWL TOO REAL
The only reason I’m not liking this comment is because it’s exactly 666 likes
Brandon B. Rich you are doing the lord’s work
Just realised the counselling group was full of the cult members.
@Mookie Blaylock you are fast
@Mookie Blaylock isn't mookie blaylock Pearl Jam's original name?
Oh god I didn't even notice that.
Lmao wtf same
WAAAAT? omfg thats brilliantly horrific.
The fact that toni collette wasn't even nominated. The emotions she made us the viewers feel was BEYOND impressive in my opinion
Right? I feel such a weird mix of emotions with the dinner table scene. The whole movie, really.
The Oscar people probably got too scared watching this movie lmao 🤣🤣🤣
Seriously. Any film where Gabriel Byrne gives the *third-best* performance is nothing short of incredible.
The academy hates horror movies 🙄
She wasn't black or gay.
feel so bad for Peter throughout the entire thing.When he gets home after the accident, climbing into bed and savoring those last few moments where he can live in a world where it didnt happen was almost too much for me to handle. So real.
i wonder how he did on the SAT
@@FieryRedmond haha good one
@@FieryRedmond prob aced that shit now that he has king paimons knowledge
I watched it with my dad, sister, and two friends of ours and the whole time we were just talking about how the dad should have taken Peter and left and gone to a hotel IMMEDIATELY, or how we want to mercy kill Peter because he deserves so much better
I was just "why can't this boy die and stop suffering" the whole movie
I left that movie feeling like I killed my sister...... I dont have a sister
Tim West 🤣
Not anymore you dont
Are you sure?
You don't. Because you killed her.
I thought it was gonna be another shitty modern horror movie, it wasn’t
Hereditary is an amazing film that I never want to watch again
That’s how I felt about this other guys film midsummer.
It was boring
LITERALLY SAME. This is what I tell everybody when I talk about this movie 😂
It wasn’t boring, that’s for sure. Pay better attention to all the details. Jesus Christ...
Well-said....perfectly
When Steve died I was like “wtf noooooo, not him” he was the only character that I felt calm around
I think that was intentional! Steve’s death jump started the demolition of what little sanity and sense the audience and characters had left. It was a rapid decline from there
Funny the actor who played him was satan in End of Days with Arnold Schwarzenegger
I was kind of confused when he died. Was it something paranormal that the burning the book burned him or was it the cult that killed him?
Such irony!!!
Why was he never affected by paimon though
Dude the atmosphere of the theatre when the daughter died was something ill never forgot
I had to use the restroom and came back to that scene. Felt like I was boutta shit myself again when it showed the head.
Edge of my seat and disturbed during that scene. Loved the movie
Right?? I felt such deep, intense dread as the movie took that crazy left turn.
@123 456 and people like you are the ones I abhor the most in theaters. Hope you were alone where you watched.
im so jealous you seen it theaters so many people wanted me to go but i was so jaded by modern horror i never did...
One of scariest scenes for me was one barely anyone noticed. The cult was ALWAYS there. If you watch the scene where peter is in his room you can see someone’s breath in the cold, just off camera.
Natty Bummppo that’s how the entire movie is. In every seen there’s something that might be there or may not be there. That’s why it’s so unsettling and such a great movie
Which scene is that? I never saw it!
Adam Gibbons it’s when he’s smoking weed out the window in his room. Very creepy!
Natty Bummppo and they were at the funeral.
Natty Bummppo dude I didn’t know if someone else was smoking there but it freaked me out
this movie ruined my life
10/10
Yeah, I wish I could un-see it. Terrible.
Don't let it get at u for one minute! See it for what it is; a stupid & sick attention & money grab by the greedy, messed up director & producers. They are not talented or unique! It was disgusting & will be forgotten very soon. Sending you lots of love & peaceful, happy thoughts.
@@emilyroseayres84 So... art that could literally be considered a masterpiece is "stupid, sick, attention greedy & messed up" because it's scary / disturbing? You're actually stupid.
@@BrickWolfy If you consider Hereditary a masterpiece, it might be you who is actually stupid.
It isn't bad, but "disturbing"? So you're actually stupid AND a spineless bitch, got it.
@@mike7652 Wow youre an actual idiot. But without simpletons who cant appreciate art, art wouldnt have any value i guess. So I will actually have to thank you for having no taste.
For me the scariest scene is right at the beginning of the movie: where the grandmother's ghost is just standing in the corner of the room. You almost don't notice her - the characters never do. But then you see her.
And there's no music at all. It just happens.
As a person who pass a lot of nights alone in a big house with only one light in a room, i have lived experiences like that when for a moment you think you have seen someone in a corner in the dark. It caught me off guard and i almost shat myself.
You're referring to when Annie sees her and flicks the light on right? Not something I missed?
what? where? i don't think you're talking about the scene the response above me is talking about
i know, it’s soooooo much scarier than if it were highlighted, like annie on the wall of peter’s room towards the end of the movie
@@stoicjedi yesss
The bit where he noticed that naked dude smiling at him in the dark is literally the stuff of my nightmares
the same blonde man from the funeral as well
The movie made me feel weird and uneasy throughout. When that scene came on, I literally had to look away because it made my heart jump in fear.
I woke up one night to see my bf smiling like that from across the room. He naruto ran towards me but I couldn't move. It was a nightmare.
@@max-xg3nr yeah and the group is all cult members like the grey haired man we see naked later is there
@@IvoryMane What the fuck
Ellen destroyed Annie’s family and her relationship with her children even from beyond the grave for a demon. That’s pure evil.
A king. Not just any demon.
@@yahyakemalkaplan4883 shes not saying it justifies it she is saying that a king is beyond a demon
@@xternal3650 but hes still a demon lol. It's just arguing semantics at this point
@@djtheturtle1399 but the fucked part is he wasn't just a king didn't they say he was like one out of 7-11 kings for some reason can't recall the exact number but jeez if you look into the lore of the demon anyway doubt it's nice
@@simonvillarreal623 8 kings of Hell
Top 5 most terrifying moments for me:
5. Every time that god damn clicking sound happens - I watched the movie with headphones and it literally sounds like it’s right beside you (they often panned the sound hard left or right)
4. The groaning sound leading up to Charlie entering Annie’s body when the family are all downstairs together, the way the camera pans up along with the sound was ultra creepy
3. Annie waiting up in the corner of the ceiling, just waiting there for like a whole minute
2. Annie creepily flying past in the background of Peter’s room - it was just so surreal and out of nowhere
1. Head banging scene - the exorcist of the 21st century, the inhuman speed and power of it... ughhhh
Also an honourable mention to the smiling naked cult members in the treehouse and the house
Dude yes, the inhuman jackhammer blows of her head....fuckin hell
The headbanging scene was chilling. It was so unsettling - the whole movie is just so unsettling to me. The piano wire scene, ugh. Can't get those two out of my head.
Holy shit I'm so happy I didn't watch this with headphones. I have a semi-open set so everything sounds like it's real. I would fucking die to those clicks.
@@eylonavraham8921 yeah that would be horrifying!
The head banging scene was haunting dude
I feel like the worst thing to watch for me was when Peter was being blamed for Charlie’s death and Annie was just going off on him. The immense guilt that he feels and then his mom blaming him. It was very very real and the things she’s says about never wanting to be his mother it’s things I’ve heard before and in the moment you don’t know what to do. It was acted amazingly and gave me an insane amount of dread. It was written so well and I love this movie so much
Mmmm. Reminds me of growing up 🙃 Fond memories.
What doesn't kill you, cripples you internally
Yeah... definitely gave me flashbacks. Annie's whole character was so similar to my mom.
Well he shouldn’t have gotten high of his ass and let his sister eat cake that she could be allergic to
@@rossday5639 only cripples u if u let it. Stay up king👑
@@frde2190 by the same useless token, Annie shouldn't have forced Charlie to go to the party even though she didn't want to go (and Peter wasn't particularly excited about taking her). It's a meaningless argument. The point of the movie is that this course of events was inevitable.
The scene where we transition from an unseen screaming mother to the rotting, ant ridden head of the little girl on the side of the road was possibly one of the most brilliant, most macabre scenes I’ve seen in a horror film this decade. Brilliant film making.
It was the most evil thing I ever seen on a movie, and made me think I never want to live a experience like that... and living alone now away from my family, after seen that, I called all my sisters to say "NEVER put your head out the window of the car NEVER"... and thinking someday I'm going to recive a call to tell me someone of my family has died, and that scared me to death
I had to pause the movie after that scene. I went to imdb to check the name of the director.
@@joeodonnell921 Just that, the final destination movies made me paranoid for a while, but Hereditary shift that fear to something more personal
I agree. Possibly one of my favorite sequences from a film ever. It's just so well-done.
That scene gave me a PTSD attack back to that scene from walking with beasts where the baby gastornis is being stripped to the bone by inch-long-ants while screaming out for its mother.
I saw this movie with friends when it came out thinking it’d be a fun “let’s all get spooked and laugh with each other” movie.
No. We walked out of that movie theater and immediately went to our houses lol, like nobody knew what to even say, we all felt somewhat traumatized. Hereditary is fucking insane
This made me lol
I went on thurs early premiere night and I was like oh I’ll go with my niece to watch the movie because at the time nothing else caught our interest. I thought it would be another “meh” kind of horror but to our shocking details in the movie I was like omg!! I never felt so uncomfortable watching a movie. Besides watching “the exorcist” when I was younger but I overcame my fear. But Hereditary will be my number 1 horror film in my list.
it was my birthday that night and before we went to bed we thought," lets watch a fun scary horror movie" we all ended up too disturbed to talk
skatergavn 😂😂😂
If this one fucked you up then you should watch "Mother!" with Jennifer Lawrence.
when the mother possessed hitting her head on the attic door and the son freaking out crying mommy really hit home. He was literally broken down so he could be possessed by the very thing that gives us our first sense of protection our mother. absolutely brutal
he also never got to know what was going on, he was left in the dark about what was happening all the time until he died. also, the fact that he wasn't even able to question HOW his mother (that i am guessing is something about 5,7" - 5,9") was able to bang on the attic door so fast and brutal or even in general because he thought she was mad at him that he was part of Charlies death and probably feared for his own life that moment puts, for me, so much more trauma for Peter in this scene
And to think it happened to Charlie as a newborn.
@@rickwrites2612 quite possibly in the womb even, theres dialogue about how from birth Charlie never cried and seemed off and apparently the director confirmed the fan theory that there never was a Charlie, that Paimon was possessing them from birth
God imagine how terrible the eye gouging scene must have been for the director to actually cut it
The WHAT
what? i did not find any article about it
Guys come on. It was talked about in the video
None of you were listening?
I predicted the son's eyes would be cut out noting Charlie's drawings of him in the book. I was surprised it didn't happen
This film wrecked me. Just one scene alone, where the mother is hanging on the attic door and relentlessly beating her head on it, was so disturbing to me that I felt nauseous.
m1ghtysauc3 same I just finished the movie and I’m shook
Yeah that moment the scares really elevate from "horror movie stuff" to "under your goddamn skin". Completely fucked me up.
@@GoblinsAreAGirlsBestFriend i honestly dont get how people find that scene scary? its almost comical to be honest. straight up cliched possession antics
Jimmy Rustles For me personally it’s probably because I haven’t seen many possession movies, so it was maybe more shocking than it might’ve been if I had seen similar things before lol
Give the film maker a lot of credit. I think what made that scene a lot more terrifying is the fact that we spent so much time with these characters and watched them develop through a devastating tragedy only to face this horrible demise and since we actually care about these characters it makes the whole situation a lot more terrifying. Most horror movies now days have a weak plot and one dimensional characters so we ultimately never give a shit about them and when the movie climaxes it’s almost comedic.
Toni Collette screaming "i just want to diiiiiieeeeee" is the scene that gets me the most, even more than Charlie's death
yeah! her wailing like that disturbed me more than many other scenes.
That whole sequence from the party until the funeral of Charlie was almost too much. The thing that creeped me out upon second viewing was the way Peter was standing outside the bedroom when Annie was screaming. It is just like the figurines shown before the party scene.. WITAF?Lol
Collette is a brilliant actress and what makes her even better is that she's not afraid of taking risks.
I almost had to quit watching this if that part lingered bc when I lost a fam member, I did sort of the thing & sometimes still wail. It's as if I felt her character in that part as ME. Eerie as hell.
@@shaymary5247 unpopular opinion: the scene that got me the most was Steve crying when he's in the car after Peter broke his nose
The way our generation felt watching Hereditary is probably what older generation felt when The Exorcist first came out
I don’t know if history will remember this movie with quite the same reverence as Exorcist. It’s REALLY hard to find any flaws with this film, however. Most horror films strive to be this realistic, relatable, creative, anxiety-producing, and absolutely viscerally terrifying.
@@jluchette try watching the wailing …or kairo
@@vedicmetalhead1029 Korean? I’ve tried Korean horror and it doesn’t appeal to me personally. Nothing against it fans of it.if
It’s a movie from somewhere else in the world (could certainly be wrong about Korea) regardless never heard it it, I’m always trying to get arch/read/listen to things that aren’t like “my favorites.” Broaden my horizons a little.
@@jluchette the Wailing is one of best horror movies of all time imo and takes ambiguity the whole new level..Kairo is Japanese and though the story isn’t that intricate the Japanese seem to get horror like no one else does ..even hereditary takes inspiration from 90s J horror sequences which were like slow burns and dragged on horror shots
@@vedicmetalhead1029 I agree. The Wailing was absolutely amazing
this movie has changed me. i can’t stop thinking about it. it utterly terrified me. i can’t get it out of my head. midsommar was incredible, but it’s nothing like the utter terror of hereditary
I watched it 3 weeks ago and I just can’t stop thinking about it
Hereditary=pure horror but midsommar=pure disturbing both connected but hereditary really is atleast 25% better.
@Paige 💙🌹
Same!
Lol Midsommar is shit
Toni Collette has been getting a lot of praise for this role, which she deserves, but Alex Wolff had an extremely difficult character to play and I think he did an amazing job.
I’m really impressed with him honestly. Seeing him go from naked brothers band to this is a huge deal.
tangelai0111 A complete 180 that’s for fucking sure. Completely forgot he was a Nickelodeon kid.
bryan macneil 99c
@@Mysteriuminiquitatis1998 I loved that show and band growin up. I still listen to their music from time to time
Wolff was amazing in his role, but I gotta admit that I did crack when he was crying out loud. I was able to hold back the first 2 times he cried, but I just couldn't contain myself the third time lol
Audience: No movie can be as disturbing as Shining.
This director: *I'm gonna do what's called a pro-gamer move*
Super Collector I love you. Just because you mixed the two greatest horror movies here.
The Shining is in its own league and different from this movie. Similar but still very different :)
Try watching midsommar- the most disturbing thing I could fathom. By the same director and company A24
@@penutbuterrhoohaboioioioin9511 really? The MOST??
кσσкιєѕ ™ You decide what you think. I personally think that Hereditary was more, but I can see why people think that Midsommar is more disturbing. It’s in theaters now btw! Go watch it, it’s a masterpiece!
The first time my friend made me watch this we paused it because we thought one of the areas looked familiar...this was before we realized it was filmed in our home town
Jesus christ that must have been beyond horrifying
move.
Yikes… some parts of silent hill was filmed in my hometown
The location is beautiful, especially the mountains
The scene where Charlie died and the following couple of minutes are seriously some of the most scariest moments I've seen in horror. Just seeing the anxiety that Peter felt and how he tried his best to imagine it never happened is something I think a lot of people can relate to on some scale which just makes it feel all the more real.
This movie’s atmosphere was the coldest most eerie and disgusting feeling I’ve ever felt. It made me want to throw up
So it's a good horror movie
YES (regarding the atmosphere). I’ve seen some crazy horror movies that had really good frightening scenes. But this one gave me something way beyond the creeps. It was absolutely sickening. The rotten grandmother, destroying her family’s lives so she could gain power from some, cast into hell (and possibly real) demon, is maddening. Love to see a movie showing her and her cult buddies in their afterlife. Reject the Trinity and you lose big time. Very disturbing and nauseating movie.
And that's the brilliance!
Yeah I didn’t enjoy it at all. It was more disturbing than it needed to be? I dunno
@@doomnoises A horror movie??? Disturbing???? Who would have thought?
This movie has so much negative energy. TRUE HORROR
Exactly!!
True! That is one hilarious picture you have! I love it!
Uurtsolmon exactly right
It’s number one in my top favorite horror movies but I refuse to even bring the dvd into my home
remember to watch the director’s new movie coming out Midsommer
So true. I was hungover when I saw it, lying in bed in the dark feeling a bit off and it all just felt super wrong. I still get nauseous when I think about it.
I still think Alex Wolff should have won something for this because he captured that fear, regret, anxiety, PTSD & ALL THE THINGS SO WELL.
Toni Collette should win an Academy Award every year for the next decade for her acting in this movie.
Agreeeeed
Her screams when she finds Charlie’s body
@@nevadamareno3713 the argument and the ants on peters face nightmare is some one the greatest acting I've ever seen
BRAVO
@@nevadamareno3713 omg yes you should have a million likes
I think this was one of the rare times the marketing truly helped the film. I feel that the girl's death scene would not have worked as well if it wasn't for the marketing.
Perfect misdirection!
Totally! Completely threw me off and I literally thought she DIDNT die and it was actually a red herring (maybe Charlie was possessed and would survive).
I am not going to disagree with that. However, I deliberately avoid watching any marketing stuff prior to seeing a movie I decide I want to see. I also wait till much of the launch hype has died down and avoid watching any reviews or reading anything about it online/in print. That's exactly what I did for this movie and just the way they started telling the story I also assumed it'd be all about the girl. I can see though how if I had paid attention to the marketing prior I probably would have thought that even more so.
Now that I think about it, now that I’ve watched the film this way, I don’t want to change it. I do agree, though it should have been different than the traditional cookie-cutter Hollywood marketing plan.
Honestly the bait and switch is cool, but my family and I hard avoided this film because of how cheesy dumb the ads were. From what this video states, the ads did not do this film justice in my opinion.
The scene where Charlie decapitated a bird was amazing foreshadowing
Charlie was a weird little girl.
@@kimdoe3374 Probably because she was already possessed.
Also when Peter walks into the living room after the burning scene you can see a piano with wire sticking out of it. There's quite a few instances of foreshadowing in this film.
@@upulieh this is right. Considering Paimon was already in her, and Paimon had a lil thing for decapitation, she did it because the demon in her told "no head is best head"
I was watching it with my friends recently, and when what happened to Charlie... happened, one of them yelled "Karma!"
Very inappropriate
phycological horror movies will always be scarier then supernatural/gory horror movies. they leave you disturbed, yet calm, and thinking about your own life.
Well put
The scariest bit for me is how they had no control, from the second the grandma died they had no control at all, everything was planned to the step, and they walked the whole without looking at who was painting it
Also the fact that Annies mother took in the risk of never succeeding at the Ritual and dying herself just like that. The fact that Ellen seemed to be unable to have emotional connections to people. I think Annies father starved himself because Ellen tried to grt him posessed with paimon but in one of the last scenes Joan tells paimon that they've finally found a HEALTHY male host for him, how Ellen probably only got pregnant a second time to have a back up if Charles wouldn't work (which it didn't) and would've probably sacrificed everyone she ever cared about just to never see what it got her just makes my jaw hinge open in disgust at the pure evil Ellen was
The scene with the mother slowly floating up into the treehouse house headless with almost no sound or music just fucking got me, I don’t know why but that scene just creeps me out and haunts me to the day honestly.
I think it creeped you out because of "the mother slowly floating up into the treehouse house headless with almost no sound or music", it's a wild guess, but I'd seriously consider this as a possibility
I've been waiting forever to see this comment, that part fucked me up for sure. After that i understood this movie was perhaps one of the best horrors i've seen because i'd never beem so genuinely disturbed
eh idk OMG YEAHHHH. That shit had me really fucked up...
same! it captured what it's like to have a nightmare so perfectly
Same.
You know the feeling when you hurt someone on accident and they start crying and you get that horrifying guilt. Thats literally what I felt when charlies head got chopped off
DUDE YES!!
ikrrr, it broke me. i felt like i was in peters place. also, have you guys noticed that all the people in the therapy group annie went to were cult members. not just joan, all of them, that was one of the most messed up things imo
Never seem this movie, is any good?
When Annie started screaming after seeing Charlie's body I got TRAUMATIZED
Haven't you ever deployed overseas?
I legitimately felt like there was a demonic presence in the room after watching this movie i legit put on som headphones and listened to worship music for like an hour
Bruh 😂😂
I saw a bug in my bed so when the ants appeared on Annie's bed I got scared for a moment lmao
See christians? Horror movies aren't spawns of Satan! They're reverse psychology Christian propaganda! :D
I just learned right now they use actual ritualistic chants and names of the thing the cult worshipped 😐
No I feel you this movie really opened my eyes
Hereditary is the most upsetting movie I've seen to date. I love scary movies, but I usually stop thinking about them an hour or two after viewing. I thought about this movie for DAYS.
You and me both. I'm still thinking about it. How specific the ritual was at the end messed with me. And the mother sawing her own head off of course.
I got this movie in the clearance box in Walmart, thought it would be some typical modern horror story, “maybe the grandma is haunting them” or something dumb I thought. But holy shit this movie is so unsettling and amazing, I’ve been telling everyone about this because I just couldn’t believe the emotions the movie made me felt
Same omg.
Me too!
I don’t get scared in movies but the scene where the mom is levitated and sawing her head off with string realllly fast... RUINED ME. Nope can’t unsee and unhear the scene
Naomi Chun SAAAMEE the sounds and the mom's face are absolutely bone chilling
The only scene i actually close my eyes on rewatches. Ive had to rewatxh alot to show my friends and everytime its like the same feeling as the first watch everytime. The scariness just doesn’t go away
Chubby Unicorn I agree, except for the reason that I actually looked away and didn’t see her face either of the times I’ve watched it. Truly disturbed me, and thinking about it now evokes the same emotion
Omg same! My jaw just dropped. Can't unsee that!!
i was lucky as the audience i was with burst out laughing on a lot of the scary parts. i could never have seen it without them.
I am still a bit mad at the mother for forcing Peter into bringing his sister to a party with other teens - and she did not even check to see if he brought the kids epi-pen or anything or check up on them. Parent your own children Ma´am, or hire a nanny :/
she didn’t know it was a high school party, she thought he was going to a school event.
That bit always gets me mad. Your 13 yo daughter, who not only seems to have some type of emotional disorder (I guess bc it's the demon living through her) -- but also has a nut allergy .... and NONE of the family members can be bothered to carry an Epi-pen! Then Annie insists that the daughter go to some high school party with her older brother; ugh even if she did think it was a "party for all ages" -- Charlie did NOT want to go and Annie would know that Peter wouldn't want her as a tag-along, basically having to babysit the whole time. *Whew* I hope that doesn't sound mean. 😕
@@pearldab7781 School event or no, it's shit parenting. Charlie very clearly didn't want to go and she also very clearly has problems socializing with other people. You shouldn't force any kid, much less a kid like Charlie, into going to social events they don't want to as a knee-jerk reaction to being frustrated that your kid isn't sociable. The fact she didn't even check if Peter had a epi-pen for emergencies is just the cherry on the bad parent cake.
Its also kinda a point the movie makes , she desperately wanted charlie to be “normal” and forced her to go. She feels immense guilt for this
@@thepeatboggyit had to be predetermined by the cult but how could they guarantee that Charlie would go to the party
This film isn’t just scary though, it’s dark, evil, immoral. The whole realism of the cultist/Satanic aspect make the Conjuring look fake.
Well Hereditary was about a cult trying to bring a demon on to earth. Where the Conjuring was about one woman who killed her own kid to please satan and she haunted her previous home.
yeah.. no lol
@@hahahahaha662 The intentions of the director? Meaning the movie had some underlying intended things for us the audience to experience?
Exactly! I was wondering to myself if I should even be watching it because it was so real and unsettling. This is why you don’t play with Ouija boards kids
Lol its not evil and immoral or even mean spirited, i did find the film scary but not tasteless or disgusting but thats what i liked about it, its physiological not torture porn
When Charlie unexpectedly died and just the way she died, I legitimately gasped and the entire theater went dead silent. I have never once been in such shock from a horror film. I was left completely speechless and was gaping and wide-eyed, holding my hands to my mouth, for at least 10-15 minutes? I am not even exaggerating. Nobody was able to say a word. Everyone was completely taken off-guard. I started crying when Collette began wailing in grief. It took me until the family dinner scene for me to finally be able to turn to my dad and whisper in his ear, "What the FUCK?!?!?" I was completely chilled to the bone and what I felt from her death and how everyone responded afterwards was deeply visceral. It was so REALISTIC emotionally. How trauma and grief was portrayed was so incredibly accurate and raw. I ended up laying down for an hour after the film just to reflect on it. I freaking love Hereditary. It fucked me up, and in the best possible way. Bought it right away when it released. I am terribly excited to see what else the director comes out with. Just... wow.
Wait no more, look for the Midsommar trailer. Jordan Peel says it is "atrociously disturbing" and I believe it, but I also firmly believe there will not be a movie that comes close to Hereditary, it is a one of a kind film
Yes. I totally agree
You were crying? Lmfao
@@GothamiteYT Oh, look how edgy you are. Wow. So impressed. Lol
@@StuntmanDanHemi Now that it's out, have you seen Midsommar yet? I thought it was absolutely fantastic, although it's more of a really bizarre and unsettling drama rather than a horror movie. I think Ari Aster has an incredible grasp on the dark/terrifying aspects of human emotion such as grief and anguish.
“A telephone pole hits a home run”
*_YIKES_*
it did not cause the head stayed on the field...
That’s some evil writing, holy shit. Totally caught me off-guard.
John ‘Juice’ Shipper You could say the same for Charlie and that pole.
YEET*
oof
i managed to keep it together most of the movie, but when it got to the scene of peter in his room in the dark with annie clinging onto the ceiling and wall in the back, i started to lose it. especially when he slowly turned around in that direction but she started climbing away across the wall? i was watching it alone at night and i had to text my boyfriend that i was scared lmao
Annie's entire presence during the final act of the movie was utterly horrifying. Sitting in the corners splayed out like a spider, banging her head on the trap door inhumanly quickly, sawing her own head off with a piano wire while giving Peter a wide-eyed stare of pure hatred... I don't think I'll ever forget it.
the final scene in the treehouse was just so haunting to me. seeing charlies head on the mannequin while that terrifying music played... crazy. i loved it.
best thing about the film is that instead of going for the obvious jumpscare tactics, they go exactly the opposite by keeping the scares in frame for about 5 seconds :)
These actors were PHENOMENAL! This entire movie is so well directed and edited! It’s perfect in the eyes of horror.
I think Toni Collette is a great actress
I was going to like your comment but I realized it had 666 likes, it just seemed right not to.
WHY didn´t Toni Collette get that Oscar? Oh, that´s right, this is a horror film. (facepalm)!
I feel like the "horror" aspects of this particular film weaken it. It becomes a Dark Comedy instead of a Horror film. Remove the supernatural and cult elements and it is about a family torn apart by awful parenting, mental illness, and grief. That's much more real and frightening than a literal outside conspiracy. The terror comes from within, not without.
At least, that's just my opinion.
The son looks like a total foreigner. It's absolutely unbelievable that he is their son. No suspension of disbelief could have me invested in the "family" as it clearly was not a family, but actors that have nothing to do with each other.
I think the scariest part was the mom's\son's nightmare where she told him she didn't want to have him and the scene changed slowly into the memory of her sleep walking into the room trying to kill him with paint thinner and fire.
also the film does an excellent job on portraying how toxic behaviour can create hell on earth.... not taking responsibility, gaslighting, lying etc...
I've seen this movie 4 times over, and every time I watched it, I noticed more and more subtle details. Twice in theaters, two more with friends at home.
I DEFINITELY recommend watching at least twice, so many details and foreshadowings right in front of your face that you miss the first time!
SPOLIERS
Annie in the beginning at the grieving group for her mom, talks about all her MALE family members having mental illness, like schizophrenia. (Alluding to the attempts of King Paimon being brought about, as it must be a male)
She also mentions how the grandmother was VERY involved in trying to raise Charlie (I wonder why...). Annie even had a miniature of the grandmother breastfeeding and her watching.
Something that really stuck out to me the next time watching was when Peter is at his class and they discuss the idea of being pawns in a bigger scheme that they cannot control, and whether it is more or less tragic if there is nothing that can be done? How symbolic!
I'm a huge horror movie buff, and Ari Aster nailed what HORROR is to me. (Midsommar was a masterpiece). I've seen so many horror movies... "horror" movies that just use jumpscares, excessive blood and gore, and cheesy cgi is not horror. There is something about the raw, painfully dense atmosphere created in Ari Aster's films that really tap into the human psyche of anxiety, fear, and pain. The pain of Annie, (what an amazing actress) shook me to the core.
I will never forget the swallowing, sinking feeling in my stomach when Peter killed his sister. Theater talking, friends chatting... as soon as that happened, theater was quiet the rest of the movie as it just got more and more messed up. Absolutely amazing.
Right down this realm, highly recommed Jordan Peele's movies like
Get Out and Us. Us is a beautifully written movie as well.
Can you suggest me some good horror movies? Thank you so much
@@saragh3900 yes!! I love psychological horror movies, the slow burner ones.
Midsommar, Hereditary, Sinister (the 1st is the best), the Conjuring, As Above So Below, Us, Get Out, the Ritual, Last Shift, to name a few.
THANK YOU, someone who finally appreciates the movie for what it is. it isn't all demonic and satanic, this was a work of art, and people who went to see it should've known what they were getting themselves into atleast 😭
ok but can we talk about how bad toni colette was snubbed by major awards shows
joe camel Seriously.
Horror isn't Oscar bait anymore. Now it's all about dramas where the plot is seen from 1,000 miles away.
Horror has always beene the most difficult genre to pull off (well). That's why I can only name 3-4 seriously scary films that have held up over time. Hereditary/Toni Collette DEFINITELY WINS..even if silly ass Hollywood failed to admit it
Amen!! Her performance was amazing & she had me really feeling her characters pain at times - she’s one of the most amazing female actors in my opinion :-)
Nominations for major awards rely on oscar campaigns. A24 didnt run much of a campaign or any for her, as a result she wasnt considered a contender. We should be blaming A24
The most jarring scene was the piano wire. The noises it made, and the dead espression on Annie's face are so jarring and deeply horrifying.
Seriously the scariest thing I have EVER seen.
Yeah same occurred to me. It was so subtle.
Yup.
When that happened half the theater gasped, and some big muscular black guy just screeched, "Oh hell no!" and got up and left for a few minutes
Yeah after he jumped out of the window it went quiet except for that wire. It sounded like a dog panting
Saw it with some friends, we just yelled “wtf” for like 2 hours straight.
10/10
I was so stressed this entire movie that when it got to the scene where Annie was in the sunny parking lot talking to the sweet supportive stranger about the seance (who we later find out was in the cult), I started crying in relief. I’ve never had a reaction like that to a movie before. I was so tense the whole time that that one sunny, ‘normal’ scene had a huge impact. And then later even that was taken away when we find out it was tainted too.
Kudos to the father who just wanted to keep his family together after the tragedy.
And then he also died.
No good deed goes unpunished.
F
oof, roasted
honestly this was the saddest sscene in the whole movie
Father is the MVP of the movie.
Toni Collette didn't even get nominated for the Oscars
that's a damn shame
Yedukrishnan G S and Alex Wolff too!
that's some bullshit. Her performance, along with Alex Wolff made the film believable.
Yedukrishnan G S TRAVESTY. Not only do I think she most certainly should have been nominated, she should have won. So difficult to pull off that character and horror in general, and have it done this well. I don’t think any other actress could have played that role. She can play anything. ANYTHING. And give it depth and force. She’s one of the greatest actresses of all time.
And to think Gaga got a nom for that awful remake is just beyond.
The mother becoming possessed (or regressed?) into a little confused screaming girl was psychology horrifying
In retrospect, it should have been obvious from the start that something evil was up with the grandmother, given that she was backwards in the casket.
that one scene where the demon was floating in the corner of the ceiling was the first and only time my blood ran COLD. it was a completely alien experience. even thinking about it gave me goosebumps just now
What scene was that? I wanna know
yeah! it was Charlie hanging on to that beam near the corner of the ceiling
@@swifty1969 she was in his room in the corner first. When he wakes up after the dad dies.
A lot of people missed that since how dark the scene was, I had to rewind to show my friends haha
Yes, I still think about that scene to this day, now whenever I go to sleep I look at the corners of my ceiling
When Toni Collette's character was crying and begging when she finds out her daughter died. That scene broke my heart and brought me to tears and painful memories.
That really got me...so haunting
I feel for you
Same here. Spooked me real good when you can hear her go to the car and she makes the discovery....
Javier Cruz Kell me too, I felt that woman’s grief. Definitely was Oscar-worthy.
Keep your chin up brotha. You got the name of the coolest character in red dead 2
This is my favorite horror movie ever. The way I felt leaving the theater is something that I haven't felt since. When people ask me what the movie is about I say "Instead of a priest exercising a demon from a child, it's a movie where everyone is trying to put a demon into a child". Love it and Midsommar as well. Ari is the best
I watched this in theaters with some of my friends when we were at the beach under the assumption this was just a horror movie. We drove the whole way back to the condo in silence. I still don’t know if the movie left me with something or took something away from me.
i watched the film on a plane, so i didn't get to see any of the true gory scenes. however, the scene with annie banging her head on the attic door really hit me hard. peter was yelling "i'm sorry, mommy" and i couldn't at the injustice of it all. he really, until the end, never understood what was going on.
That must be so odd with all those gory scenes missing
I mean at least he was ignorant. He died not knowing all the intention that went into their suffering. He was just scared and confused but not aware of being consumed by the monster.
this was the most terrifying part to me - i love my mum, and watching peter begging for her to be on his side, and the thought of my mum trying to hurt me was so raw i cried in front of the ten friends i was watching the movie with
@@tarrowahtessla7456 wait he died?
@@MadeeMadness yeah the light off his corpse was showing his soul leaving his body and the monster taking over his body.
The last 5 minutes where they are in the treehouse was just way too much for me. It was an overload of horrifying scarring images along with truly terryfing music. It was all too much for me, I could barely believe what I was watching.
Man, that scene was so dark, that I never thought anyone would film a movie openly worship the devil, but then I shouldn’t be surprised.
The last treehouse scene was the least horrifying because Peter already left his body/been possessed, therefore he's supposedly released from fear. I finally relaxed.
I loved the whole movie, but from when the first naked guy showed up til the end I kept laughing just cause of how that cheeky mofo was just chilling in the doorway.
@@seanmcdonald1111 For some reason, the naked guy in the door was one of the most terrifying parts of the film for me !
So so good though.....
Never has a horror movie made me feel so utterly. . . Unsettled. Charlie's death and the aftermath left me feeling so sick - and it's mostly due to the amazing cinematography and editing of the scenes. I'm honestly obsessed with this movie because of how effective it was with the disturbing subject matter it wanted to present.
I think the fact that Peter screaming and jumping out the window at the end is so hilarious(because who the hell wouldn't in that situation?) yet doesn't take you out of the horror of the whole thing is A testament to the craft of storytelling
Let me make this Clear...I was born in 79, and I have been a Horror Fan my whole life, and no Film as disturbed me as bad as this film, it lingered with me for like a Week. I truly think it's the subliminal undertones that hook into you and chill you to the bone...
@Thee Trashman Be careful who you. Hail...lol
There are subliminals in that movie??
It’s evil
See more horror movies lol
@@hudsonsirheshicks2653 what are some good horror movies ?
The moment when Peter discovers his dad and Annie is in the corner on the ceiling behind him is what really broke me. I've never felt such dread in my whole life. I instantly got goosebumps and broke out into a sweat, hell even thinking about it now is giving me goosebumps. Honestly, I truly believe this is one of the best horror movies in a very very long time, it made me feel a way I've never felt before watching a film.
Delusional had a panic attack in the theater throughout that whole sequence. felt like I was drowning in dread.
did you now she is also hiding in his room when he first wakes up in that scene? look in the upper left corner of his room
Same! Also when annie is leaving a room and her mom is in the corner just staring at her
Me too. And I've been searching for far too long. This film restored my faith in horror and its the directors fucking debut too!!
@Alexis Gonzalez czcams.com/video/-sM8Jrcbxdc/video.html from the start
i still got goosebumps when the description of Charlie's death was being addressed. even tho it's been a long time since i watched the movie. the analysis couldn't get any better. mainly, death scenarios are captured in a second and we anticipate the panic and brace ourselves for the death scene. Sometimes it's too predictable. But trust me, this death scene was not at all predictable. I knew something would happen to the daughter but never fathomed this ending for her. It's truly phenomenal how the moment was extended into the horrifying aftermath of the brother's horror and unbelievable conscience. he was in sheer awe and i just loved the numbness in his eyes of disbelief. And that's how ones unpredictable death feels like , especially when you know it's because of you it happened. Oof.
So true. Worth a second viewing (at least). Watching it the first time I didn't fully pick up on it but- is Annie becoming unhinged or is she resurfacing the awareness that she and her family are all puppets? Is that why she is obsessed with creating family scenes and cannot do her professional work? Is that why she eventually destroys her studio? Is that why she can't help but recreate her daughter's death scene? There are so many scenes in the film connected to this idea of puppetry (or as Ryan says pawns), many which include a profound sense of discomfort from Annie until she herself can't help but become a puppet.
The scene where the naked people standing outside the house was so eerie and the fact there was no jump scares was magical
People love to moan about jump scares. I love them.
hotties3v3n Jump scared can be fun, but they’re cheap. real fear and horror is in the moment before a jump scare. jump scares give us closure to the situation, and are almost releasing.
Best yet, there was only ONE jump scare, which was masterfully done.
Its like the game devotion. There is jumpscares but in the beginning there were mannequins and then when u turn around they're standing behind you without a sound lol
That scene where Annie is banging her head on the attic door is just simply pure evil. Alongside the scene of Peter’s arm twisting unnaturally as he banged his head on the desk. Those scenes scared me to the core. Great job directors and writers, but holy hell.
Doom broooooo. It still gives me chills.
Such a good movie.
what creeps me out the most (out of everything else, never saw such an horrifiyng piece of art) is that i constantly thought, till Annie sits at the cieling, that the whole plot is about Annie getting insane and making up all this - Joan as a personality Annie is splitting up, seeing all this meanings and that she is gaslighting Peter, or that both of them are getting crazy... but then - its about a real damon?! wtf....
I just finished it and for some reason, I really feel like crying afterwards.
One of the comments here said "I left the theater feeling like I killed my sister" and that's to me the best explanation of the feeling you get from watching it...
The part where the mom was beating her head up against that door scared the shit out of me when I first saw it😂😂😂😂😂
Cupcake Killer that scene actually made me, a 36 year old man, so disturbed that I felt nauseous.
It was so unsettling
Scenes like that in horror ALWAYS get me. The completely unnatural idea behind it freaks me out. The same goes for when Peter gets briefly possessed in class, with his arm raising in a distorted way, before his head twists and he bangs his head against his desk...Things that depict people harming themselves in such bizarre ways just always freaks me out. Like, any self harm is disturbing, but when it's something that's so completely out of left field, which no one would do without being "possessed", or (in a more realistic scenario) suffering from some insane mental episode, it's absolutely horrifying for me.
Cupcake Killer the scariest part is when she is like flying and staring at him that shit creepy
I actually thought that was pretty funny; I immediately thought of the"why are you closed?!?" Guy lol
toni collettes performance was horrifying. i rarely feel genuine fear when watching horror movies but she felt so real it was impossible to ignore. definitely didnt sleep after watching this movie lol
Kayden Wyatt same! don't think I could ever watch it alone at night again. that was a mistake lmao
Kayden Wyatt when she was unleashed at the end there , HOLY hell it scared the hell out of me when Peter woke up and you can see her crawl down from the corner and follow him until he sees the blonde smiling cult dude
Especially when she was mourning over the death of Charlie. Ugh those harrowing cries just hit me because it felt so genuine.
RIGHT? She was terrifying. Did a great job of course but man I don’t think I’ve ever been more scared of a fictional character in my life lol
When I go down into my basement now I always, without fail, picture her in the corner of the ceiling ugh THANKS HEREDITARY
She deserves all the awards!
I felt really bad for Steven in this movie. He was the most innocent family member, trying everything he could to keep everyone happy and together despite the constant tragedy they had to deal with.
Toni Collette has been a favourite of mine since "Muriel's Wedding"....and she was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING in this film. Easily the best horror flick of 2019, and one of my new faves.
I remember feeling uncomfortable throughout the whole movie. I felt so trapped in that hall, in their story and in their pain. I don’t think I’ll watch it again not because it was a bad movie but because it felt so real, I don’t want to go through that waves of anxiety again. But brilliant analysis of the movie!
Same. My hands started to sweat and shit... It was bad
i really suggest watching it a second time. i watched it twice and the second time really makes you see
@@jennifer5569 I've thought about watching it again but that feeling of dread and like Xena T mentioned of feeling uncomfortable, I can't watch that movie again. Even reading about the alternate ending a couple weeks later made the movie have an even worse feeling!! Overall it was a very good movie but that's a no for me on watching it again.
Miserably Hopeful I agree! i couldn’t watch it again for a second time until like 4-5 months later and even now i’m JUST starting to look up youtube videos about it because even these are a lot! traumatic all over again but genius
Yeah I totally agree! First time I watched I too felt like I wouldn't want to watch again, but I did it with some friends recently and really felt more in control of the situation, I still appreciated the movie a lot, but in a different way.
That part when the mother gets possessed and it shows Charlie in his room and she’s in the corner...JESUS CHRIST
That wasn't charlie. That was the mom
adorably smug little bastard that’s what I said
@@etwon1408 The son is called Peter, the dead little girl is Charlie.
I had a panick attack/anxiety attack/i dont really know in that exact moment. I just started screaming and crying like I have never done. All the tension and anxiety of the previous scenes hit me like a truck lol
My Face I didn’t see her at first but when it zoomed out I finally saw her I istg I jumped so bad
I came into this movie thinking it was going to be something completely different and got to see one of the most beautifully shot and scariest movies I’ve ever seen.
This movie was one that made me sprint up the stairs when turning the lights off
The car scene and the next ten minutes after that, the screaming of the mother offscreen and the head of charlie. was the most evil thing I ever seen on a movie, and made me think I never want to live a experience like that... and living alone now away from my family, after seen that, I called all my sisters to say "NEVER put your head out the window of the car NEVER"... and remind me that existencial fear that someday I'm going to recive a call to tell me someone of my family has died, and that scared me to death and still scare me.
EDIT: Thank you Ryan for not show the head and not put the screams and the soundtrack. the impression that left me was so real, everithing about the atmosphere bring me chills in my spine, like strong PTSD
you have little life experience.
Claus Philipp Maria Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg why?
@@yutarokida For starters you haven't plotted a conspiracy to kill Hitler and failed in the attempt.
@@janmichaelcjamisola I guess you are right
SAME, dude i was soooooo tense during that scenes, i felt sick, it made my stomach so sick, and the head and the screaming didnt help at all, it made 10 time worse, it made me feel afraid for my sister's safety too. This move is fucking great.
Okay, but can we talk about Charlie's death? Like seriously, it gave me weird feelings like i feel the brothers guilt and it made me so uncomfortable. The silence and them alone in a dark road and when they showed Charlie's head is just so creepy or weird idk
ᴡɪᴅᴏᴇ I know!! I felt like it was my fault too. Like I could feel the tension and guilt.
Well it's decapitated and idk why but something felt off when her mouth was twisted and blood all over and there are ants all over her head
when they showed charlie's head in the road it was horrifying it was hard to even look
@@Sunny-iz9jx That's what happens with that sort of blunt-force trauma. The pole wouldn't cut through you like a sword but deform the area at the edge of impact (on both the head and rest of the body). Source: watched a lot of LiveLeak videos, not proud but now avoid any heavy machinery
One of the few movies that made me feel like I had made my soul dirty.
I think it is about how generational pain gets passed down through families. The grandmother can be seen as the instigator of the trauma or at least as the first link in the chain who we are aware of. She could have broken the link herself but chose to pass the unresolved pain down to her child and grandchildren. The mother and the son could have made choices to avert transferring the trauma onto others or exacerbating it.
This is the only horror movie in my life that gave me anxiety. Not even watching the exorcist when I was 12 disturbed me as much as this movie did to me as an adult. It’s a really good movie
Same here, I watched this with two of my friends and we were just in shock on the way home
I just watched this once with my friend at school, I didn’t pay that much attention to it and all we did was laugh, but yesterday i rewatched it again and omg!🥴I couldn’t sleep i got traumatized...😪
@@MelvnyMorales Lmaoo shit is insane.
@@MelvnyMorales thats why you watch horror movies alone, with friends you cant take them serious anymore
@@qboro7182 yup it was 🥴
Charlie dying was insane. Thinking about how peter felt and how he was going to handle that situation was the most brutal part
This is the scariest movie I have ever seen (on a personal level). My mother struggles with mental illness and the conflict between mother and son in this movie is a haunting reflection of my childhood.
A close friend of mine told me this: You know how at the end of the movie we see Peedah (Peter) in the kitchen and you can see Annie on the ceiling just a little bit? And then there's this sound and he turns quickly but she's not on the ceiling anymore? That was her ripping out a piano string that she later uses to uhh,, do her little jig later in the attic. I was STUNNED by all the detail put into this movie. Absolutely INSANE
I... Actually never noticed that or heard any mention of that in the reviews I've seen. Wow. Just when I thought I knew how incredible the detail was in this movie.
@@kirbbar2258 Ikr it seems like such an awesome detail that no one mentions :0
And to think, there are actually people who preferred Slender Man to this....
@@tulicloure I didn't like The Nun either, but I thought it was better than Slender Man myself. At the very least, it had a nice setting, and Taissa Farmiga (though they didn't give her anything to do). I didn't think Slender Man had any redeeming value whatsoever.
The Boogeyman normies man and a lot of them
I'm not going to bother watching shit like the Slender Man or The Nun, but the reality is that this movie here doesn't always work as intended. It honestly didn't have much of the unsettling effect it's supposed to have on me. So since it didn't work, it just felt like a movie trying too hard.
The same way, if you're into horror movies for the scares and something using shitty scare tactics does a better job, you'll enjoy it more, even if on rational terms they're worse movies.
Basically what I'm saying is that not everything is based off of intellect or quality, but rather works on an emotional level where not everyone is as receptive as the other. There's also the fact that not everyone has seen loads of horror movies.
@@michaud81 not really, its overrated yeah, but its not trying to be a masterpiece.
They're both awful.
The scene where Annie is banging on Joans apartment door and we slowly see the candles and ritual display in her apartment gave me the creeps
Andrew i know right... it hits you like a ton of bricks when you realize what's to come
The whole movie gave me the creeps
Hereditary left me in this depressive state for two weeks straight, I still had Charlie's death scene on my mind and oh, the chills.
That scene when Annie is on the floor wailing and crying saying she just wants to die after Charlie’s death is so haunting and disturbing. It stuck with me more than anything else. The real, raw emotions of grief and pain are some of the scariest things of all in the film.
Annie screaming and writhing on the floor after she found out charlie died is what truly shook me because i experienced that sort of pain very recently.. and i just felt her pain so deeply.
That scene literally felt like it went on for 10 minutes, so raw. I was SICK!
Hereditary was just the movie I’ve been craving for years now. Charlie’s death shook me so hard that I spent the rest of the film trying to recover from it and because of that I was much more frightened and disturbed by the actual ending. It’s almost like the pre-existing walls of desensitization I have whenever I watch a horror movie were knocked down by such a well done and truly upsetting series of scenes. I have never before left a movie theater feeling so uncomfortable and just plain bad. I really do think it’s a brilliant movie.
I agree on breaking the desensitization! I feel like horror movies these days are so predictable and not scary, like the people making them forget that people who like horror movies have seen it all. As disturbing as hereditary was it was.. refreshing(?) To be so surprised by multiple scenes and how well the entire thing was executed
"Made me feel bad"="Brilliant"

@@bebopbountyhead You must be fun at parties.
