I'd like The Wicker Man, and for my side? Let me get the Canibal Holocaust, thanks.

That about sums it up. If you've seen TWM, then you know how things move along and end. The CH element is from studying "others" in their native surroundings, and yes - there is cannibalism here, or at least implied. While a step up from Hereditary, and be honest - did you really expect the cheep jump scare / Annabelle type action at the end of that movie, Aster still can't figure out how to construct a film where viewing it isn't an ambient experience. The music was great (like his previous film), the visuals impeccable (you might have another Kubrick in waiting here, I'm not kidding), but he can't write. The dialog is clunky, and the plot telegraphed pretty early on. While I knew what was happening and how it will wrap up, I just didn't care. At some point you realize that you are just being moved from space A to B, etc. and turn your brain off, there isn't much you are going to discover. I'd say save your money and watch it at home, but even then you might find something else to do - at least in a theater you have to sit still.
