A very intelligently made horror film. They create some very interesting shots throughout.

Aster’s film is disturbing, lasting and hard to put into words. Engrossingly evil. Read more

Very strong horror film, and I would also say that a horror movie’s images haven’t messed with my mind this much since the first The Conjuring film. Read more

Not perfect but does what the good horror movies do, relying on suspense and tension to deeply involve the viewer. Hence, prepare to be disturbed. Read more

It’s a more methodical, patient and brooding affair but one with truly disturbing results. Read more

Indeed, this whole movie understands the effects of isolation, in every way.

Starts with much potential but settles for the simpler goal of scaring you. These days, fans of this genre expect more. Read more

Has more spooky ideas than it knows what to do with, but enough of what it throws at the wall sticks to make for one twisted horror movie. Read more

At first, the film wasn't bad. And what I had in my head as to what the plot line would consist of, sounded like a good movie. But, being an A24 movie, nothing I wanted to happen, happened, and I was left feeling like I wasted my time with this one.

Door de snijdende sfeer een regelrechte aanrader. Een nachtmerrie waar je gelukkig na twee uur uit mag ontwaken. Read more

Het einde laat samen met de te lange speelduur misschien wat te wensen over, maar niemand kan ontkennen dat deze horrorfilm van 2018 geen sterk debuut was. Read more

Ga Hereditary niet zien omdat je de engste film ooit verwacht te zien, ga om je als filmliefhebber te laten verrassen. Hoe vaak krijg je die kans nog? Read more

Leunt vooral op het tegenovergestelde: het oprekken van de angst totdat die bijna niet meer te verdragen is. Read more

De kracht ligt vooral in het psychologische spel dat wordt gespeeld.

Een knap debuut van een regisseur die een meesterwerk in zich heeft, maar het met deze Hereditary nog niet helemaal heeft kunnen waar maken. Read more

Een oerdegelijke en knappe atmosferische prent die doet denken aan de jaren zeventig-horrorfilms van weleer.

De film wordt gered door sterk acteerwerk en overzichtelijke regie. Read more
