A genuinely un-nerving horror with technical flair that sadly fall short of its potential

Rating: 7/10 (18 July 2018)

In short, Hereditary excels in its technical ability as a horror movie with it's impressive cinematography, score and acting without relying on jump scares.
However, I felt the plot ultimately falls short with its slow pacing and disappointing final act that lacks depth to potential grand themes that could have elevated the plot. Sadly, It's less clever and original than it really ends up being with the left field art house direction likely to turn casual cinema-goers off, leaving viewers feeling baffled and un-satisfied with its ultimate conclusion.
Technically, very well crafted (especially the score and the disturbing imagery at times) but the plot sadly lacks depth.
