Geek.com has posted the MovieBob review of 2018 of Hereditary, the newest horror film sweeping the nation.
The film stars Toni Colette, Gabriel Byrne, Alex Wolff and Millie Shapiro are the mom, dad, son and daughter.
The family lives together in an sprawling, rustic McMansion in rural Utah.
Mom is a work-from-home artist making disturbingly elaborate miniatures depicting her life.
Her own mother who was psychologically abusive toward her and very manipulative of her grandchildren...
recently passed away from cancer. It is also revealed she had a secret inner life that much of the family only vaguely understands.
Any more specific about what is or isn?t ?really? going on would be verging on spoiler territory.
"Hereditary?s unceasing unpredictability and omnipresent storytelling gear-shifts worked so well for me is that I didn?t even know this was a movie I was supposed to be expecting anything other than a straightforward plot progression."
The film is one of the most successful attempts at modern horror that anyone has managed in years.
It contains shocking violence, unnerving psychological horror, otherworldly fears, and relatable human drama.
If you want a modern answer to Exorcist or The Shining, Hereditary does a good job looking safe, posh and classy?
but it?s here to rip your head off, and it does an incredible job of it. Watch at your own risk.
