Satisfies the craving

Rating: 8/10 (14 June 2018)

I went in to this with low expectations, the other A24 films I saw with high hopes disappointed the crap outta me (the Witch, Ex Machina..), and while Hereditary is predictable, it delivers. The horror is subtle, the turmoil within the characters provides this uneasy, uncomfortable feeling which is what you want, it's great. This only executes because the acting is excellent. Every scene with Alex Wolfe (the son) was made awesome just from his fantastic acting and the way he portrays the feeling. At the end, where it usually flops and depreciates the cool scary scenes the film might've had, Hereditary gives you a badass, intense conclusion which leaves you happy with the flim. Very glad I went and saw it, I hold it as a horror movie that got the job done.
