  • I felt the same. The movie didn’t speak to me, not even 2 % of all the impact that Midsommar or Get Out had on me.

    But I don’t blame Hereditary itself. I have watched really really bad horror movies, forced by friends and family, and Hereditary has at least good acting… It’s probably that we simply enjoy other things.

    I blame it on the fact that these paranormal horror movies tend to be relatively pointless, or their point isn’t really portrayed as well as they think it does. You can’t reflect on a deep philosophical thought if you know you are going to get jumpscared in a few seconds.

    Having said all this, I must say the movie “Talk To Me” (2022) is one of the few instances of me enjoying a paranormal movie. Still has deep messages throughout the movie, IMO. Hopefully you’ll like it too.
