There is a new horror movie hitting theaters on Friday: A24's 'Hereditary.'
The film stars Toni Collette and Gabriel Byrne.
The two play parents of a family that becomes haunted by sinister, supernatural forces.
They learn dark secrets of their ancestry following the death of the family's matriarch, Annie's mother.
Critics are hailing the film as this generation's "Exorcist."
"Hereditary" currently has a 93% "fresh" rating on the reviews aggregator Rotten Tomatoes.
Screen Rants Sandy Schaefer gives the movie three and half out of five stars.
---Hereditary mostly succeeds at being what it set out to be - namely, one of the more flat-out messed up horror films in recent memory.---
