Could not have been more impressed!!!

Rating: 7/10 (12 April 2019)

I have been a fan of horror my entire life. Every style within the genre at that. However, this style of occult, demonic film has got to be my favorite... hands down! Not only was the film shot beautifully with an amazing cast and brilliant storyline, but I have give the upmost credit to screenwriter Ari Aster, along with any researchers on the project, for their 100% accuracy on the lore within the story. A lot of demonic horror films just reach for random names, places, and ideology to be the basis of their stories; however, I can assure you, that is not the case with Hereditary! In an age of information and fact checking being literally at our fingertips, this film did a wonderful job with demonic accuracy. I can't applaud it enough for that fact alone. Also, speaking of Ari Aster... Hereditary was his feature directorial debut. If we continue to see brilliant films like this from him, he is going to be in direct competition with Jordan Peele for the next horror master! I rate this 7 out of 10. (...and that's a conservative rating on my part.)
