Friends travel to Sweden to visit a rural hometown's fabled mid-summer festival. What begins as an idyllic retreat quickly devolves into an increasingly violent and bizarre competition at the hands of a pagan cult.
"Uh Ruben was - a product of inbreeding. All of our oracles are deliberate products of inbreeding." I didn't like "The Witch", but I liked "Hereditary"...this one fell right in between for me. The format is the same as the others...as slow as a turtle going backwards with just enough weirdness to keep you interested. Culminated with a 20 minute ending which you can only define as 'holy crap'. I'm not a fan of the director's method, but I see the uniqueness of it. I can recommend this only if you liked both previous movies.
