The sheer horror of just randomly finding your child in such a brutal way is gut wrenching! And that her other child was responsible and didn't say anything, was almost worst then if he sought help. It just shows how broken the communication was that he couldn't even say anything.

The fact that he never told his parents, never even LOOKED in the backseat was one of the most difficult and horrifying parts of the movie.

[@anna8328]

YES!!!! When I saw this scene, it completely removed me from the movie and into my own family dynamics. Seeing this scene I realized if I were in his position I would never go home - I would return the body, with the head, call the authorities and kill myself before my family can confront me. Isn't this telling? Just like his behaviour - no communication in the hereditary family. The fact he doesn't say anything to his parents, to me, is as scary as all the head banging levitating head removing. Equally.

[@blank4227]

@@anna8328 I would just kill myself too honestly

[@anna8328]

@@blank4227 yeah but what would be your exact thinking?

[@anna8328]

@@blank4227 ... You do realize you sound like: "I sort of realize from distance it's not like a thing for everyone, but I would see this as personal responsibility - even if it was an accident manipulated by an evil satanic cult - and I would kill myself to handle the excessive guilt". I won't go into details - but in my case - I would want to live, just wouldn't be able to stay because what my family would do to me emotionally if something like that happened would be worse than hell on earth and I would know it's not my fault, it was an accident, but they wouldn't and it's only a catalyst - the accident is only an innocent catalyst to let my family transform into their true forms, so to speak. I have been diagnosed with PTSD "after going through my childhood and teenage years at home" as according to psychiatrist. I just know myself and know what things I can and can't survive with my mind intact and when it comes to guilt tripping and my family - and still trying to be with them - suicide would be actually a form of avoidance of what they would do. I appreciate your self-awareness, but wish it went further - what you're saying is absolutely avoidable and kinda throwing away your life. If you really think about your actions and behaviour in your life you might realize something - that anyone in your situation would probably act as you have. Including suicide as option for many and guilt option for al in that specific case, but I am talking about choices we make in everyday life. What happened was murder - by the cult using teenager's hands. It makes them unbelievably cruel, because they kill her, but also essentially cripple him emotionally for years purposefully. Knowing the basic facts - open window, allergy, deer in the road - what he did to his sister isn't murder in any way, it's an accident. If I met people like this in real life I would go out of myself telling them they maybe fee guilty and it's natural, but they are as much to blame as that deer. If I had do deal with Paimon in flesh and his cult or be born into Hereditary family I would still pick this over being born into family I was born into and events that took place. I just coldly think which one would destroy my mind less. Suicide as avoidance of psychic torture my family did- the fact they would do it despite it's insane unfairness towards me - and the fact that they would truly make Hell into a dream place - and ergo my suicide impulse are somewhat coldly reasonable, avoiding my mind destroyed, etc. Your case seems to me - if you would persist with suicide thoughts some time after the accident as a way to "payback" your "crime" - that's just waste of life to me.

[@anna8328]

@@blank4227 Just to clarify- my family's scapegoating isn't reasonable - they would blame me for something horrific because scapegoating of this level is just one of the things that happen in my family (you can google family roles scapegoat, hero, etc). It would be the fact they choose to destroy me when if you think about it for a moment - 1)it's not the driver's fault 2)even if it somehow is, it wasn't intentional, one life is already lost, why destroy another, especially if this person is already suffering from so much guilt? And my family would be so vicious in a situation like that, so insanely focused on avoiding their own feelings of loss, guilt and pain that they would focus entirely on making me lose my mind with guilt because obviously, it's my fault, just like growing up is my fault, having any critisism, especially logical and pointing out inaccuracies in their statements about values that contradict each other. As much as that death would hurt them - they would focus on removing all those feelings from themselves onto me, several people's guilt and loss onto another family's child. Because this sort of behavourisn't reasonable - you can't really argue with it. Just seeing them make this choice it's okay to make me comitt suicide would be the deciding factor in my suicide - if I want to stay with my family or can't leave and support myself because I am 15 or sth like this. If I can leave my family home behind and survive financially - I can avoid killing myself. That's the readout here.

[@deasmith99]

If you notice in the dream sequence when Anne is telling peter she regrets bringing him into this world, when Peter asks her why she tried to kill him, she says “I was trying to save you” implying that she somehow, maybe subconsciously knew that his body would become vessel to Paimon.

[@gujjewman96]

Also she was trying to stop paimon when she mentions to joana when she was sleepwalking and tried to kill both Peter and Charlie covered in paint thinner.

[@kaazimsheikh9034]

I think it's more because of her mother. She didn't trust her at all and felt that her baby would be unsafe with her

I think it was so crazy because it was something so subtle, but everytime we heard it we knew exactly who it was. Not a word, or a voice, just a faint click sound. Such a HUGE detail

[@TD_JR]

It's a nervous tick .. some people swear or curse, twitch, whistle... not really horrifying, just an added characterization that made it appear that Charlie wasn't right as a result of being a vessel for Paimon who didn't exactly enjoy being a host in a girl's body. The tick was a result of that inadequacy. Remember, at the end of the movie Joanne's speech touches on this - and it's written in the book Annie uncovers.

The most unsettling scene for me was how Peter reacted to the accident with his sister. I cried, it was depressing to see that happen but also was stomach turning, seeing how the human mind can go into flight mode and shut off obtuse stress responses and avoid a stressful scenario like that. He literally continued driving home with his sisters headless body and even asked “are you okay?” before he did. That part was crazy.

[@mochak.]

Black Widow that’s exactly what I was thinking! Like how could someone keep driving like everything is ok 😰

[@justturbulence1944]

I legitimately threw up thinking about how he reacted, somehow the director is able to capture feelings I can’t wrap my head around.

[@carok.2847]

I felt the same way.. And I was very unsure empathizing with his decision to return straight to bed.. I mean what DO you do in that scenario? How do you tell your mother your, in a way estranged with, that you just killed her daughter trying to explain how sorry you feel and being not at fault.. But her maybe, in grief and anger, shifting complete blame on you and how do you survive that?? So hard... Chills

[@bathroomtile459]

I just watched the movie and god that whole scene I just can’t get it out of my head. The rest of the movie was pretty disturbing as well but that scene was like one of the worst things I’ve ever witnessed in a horror film and I’m a pretty huge fan of horror. The blackcoats daughter is the only one I can think of that made me feel that kind of despair and hopelessness. These are not good movies to watch if you have anxiety

[@Mindgamingu]

I have a theory that he hated Charlie and the Grandmother who was obsessed with her because she was a King of Hell. It makes sense that he didn’t react with sadness because again, SHE WAS A MOTHA FN KING OF HELL. Of course they didn’t know but I bet he could feel it somewhat. They were all being mean to her throughout the whole movie. Yelling at her, grabbing her, forcing her to do things she didn’t want to. That’s what happens when you are A DEMON LORD

I guess that and the fact that it’s more of a jump scare. The mom doesn’t levitate after Peter. She’s running after him and she’s slow enough as to let him up to the attic.

[@lazywagon]

Two notable moments of the film (**spoilers**): 1. Oscar-worthy: The mom (Annie) crying and wanting to die after losing her youngest child, Charlie. The scene basically lasted like 1 minute but felt like 5 minutes. The pain a parent, even specifically a mother, feels after losing her child was very well depicted there. Especially when the death is sudden and as gruesome as it was. 2. The son (Peter) in shock and completely numb after the death of his sister. He knows it was his fault to some extent. He probably can play the events leading to it in his head at a million miles/second at that very moment. He doesn't want to look back, but he wants to make sure she's okay when he knows she's dead. The paralytic stress reaction is well done.

[@Smoove_J]

Those scenes cut pretty deep. Maybe a little too deep for an audience that was just expecting a few jump scares.

Isn't the movie "midsommar" the sequel? Once heard that

[@w.m.8126]

Not that I'm aware of. When I watched Midsommar the plot from my memory wasn't based around Paimon (sorry if spelled that wrong), but had another ancient occult theology likely existing prior to Christianity due to the location being set in the Netherlands or somewhere there (blanking on where rn). In comparison, and addition, I'm going to assume Paimon's history didn't exist until Christianity and/or the response to it. I also don't remember seeing any of Paimon's symbology in Midsommar which I feel like if was suppose to be a sequal or prequel they'd include it at least once. Midsommar had the theme of fertility and continuance of the old. Whereas, I feel Hereditary had the theme of death and discovery of a new world order. So I may be totally wrong since I've only watched both movies once and haven't researched too heavily into either, but I don't think they are directly related. I think at most they just have a similar perspective and vibe with pillar "horror" aspects to the occult to which is often chucked under one umbrella. @Creeplant2

[@epowell4211]

Me too, sort of...maybe.

It could be very interesting, though, exploring the idea that many incarcerated in asylums are actually possessed by demons. The idea that someone is thought insane, disregarded, and even punished for telling the truth about things no one wants to believe has been around forever - think "Cassandra" of myths - so even with that angle, it could wind up pretty unoriginal.

That decapitation scene was really messed up!!

[@zoeangelopoulos2077]

Adrian Santacruz I think its because he was in such a violent state of shock from what just happened he hadn't even processed it. The reason why he just went back home and got into bed without saying a word was because he wasn't even thinking, just a blank slate of fear and panic and the need to escape. I have no idea how the family even survived that long nor how Peter could live with himself after taking in what happened, though

[@brianjones8432]

That was a brilliantly filmed scene..... The uncomfortable length of time they hung on the shot of Peter's face in the car was perfect. I got the impression he was just reliving it over and over again in his mind while he was laying there in bed, wide awake until the moment you hear the mother scream. That is just great film making, hands down. And from a first time feature director. I would say keep an eye on that guy, he's definitely going places.

[@zoeangelopoulos2077]

Brian Jones it was honestly one of the best scenes ive ever seen in a movie, hands down. Not only did it draw your attention away from the impact of what was about to happen, but even the viscious details OF the impact were perfect and tasteful. The movie did not need to use gore to increase the shock value, the during, and the aftermath were perfectly written and filmed. You could feel the horrifying amount of shock Peter was in, like you said, reliving the trauma he just witnessed. The mother's reaction to the news was amazingly acted out and gut-wrenching. I feel as though the many people who were criticizing Peter's actions that night did not understand how physical and mental shock work. You don't think right or act right in a state of shock that is so violent, you just do whatever your body wants you to. By no means should he have left her there and he should have told someone, but by no means was he in his right mind, either.

@@diskeyes Ironically, I found Hereditary (as a disturbing drama with creepy moments) to be much scarier than most of today's horror films. Instead of the heart-racing jump scares it's (instead) a heart wrenching "slow burn" that gets under my skin that haunts me for days & weeks long after it's over.

What are you talking about? NOBODY asks for jumpscares and especially "nowadays". It's a very old trope. Stop using words like "People" generalizing on a non-existent group to justify you disagreeing with others who didn't enjoy these movies as much as you did.

[@hangoutwithme346]

I thought the role of the son was played amazingly. You feel all the pain and horror though his character. He’s so victimized emotionally from birth by his cold distant mother and also father who fails to recognize this and intervene. Dad is an enabler. Not crazy but very spineless and in denial.

This movie honestly isn't just only your casual "jumpscare" film. Glad it actually has a meaning to it. The meaning is deep, requiring the audience to actually think about what's actually happening. Honestly a great horror film with a interesting storyline. And imo, Annie's headbanging scene to get to Peter was extremely disturbing.

It is good. I saw it today (after seeing the ending explained here), and it builds tension so well. The most disturbing scene for me was seeing Annie completely unravel (her sobbing about destroying the book) and her husband having the normal reaction of "You have having a mental breakdown...I'm not going to enable you any further."

[@pauldelrosario5888]

Headbanging intensifies*

[@geordangullock1237]

Was refreshing to see a modern Horror without a single genuine jump scare, and it was 10 times scarier than most that do.

[@domtillman630]

The headbanging scene was horrifying, but I was freaked out more by her just stuck to the corner of the wall for an insane amount of time and then crawling/swimming out without Peter knowing anything. THAT was the first instance when a horror movie actually made me look over my shoulder and check the walls when I go to sleep. 😨

[@ineptjedi3621]

Her sticking to the wall made me start singing the Spider-Man theme song. The head bagning and her headless body floating up into the tree house were very unnerving.

Toni did an absolutely BRILLIANT job acting in this movie, but I gotta give props to Alex (Peter) because damn the way he could act so emotionless yet full of emotion throughout the film, especially the scene of Charlies death like WOW, and he was brilliant conveying the true fear Peter felt during the climax of the film, and even portraying Paimon at the end.

Man i just noticed: in the party scene the art in the house is quite weird... the first paint: four circles (the colours could be the elements) and what appears to be a triangle in the middle being the altar. The numerous red lights in that house. Before Peter's crush enters the bong room if you see the tablet the kids are watching a decapitation video while laughin. When Peter carries Charlie to the car in the second floor there's 2 kids talking and the shadow of a fan circling on the line of their necks in the background.. Like, the whole thing was planned, the owner of that expensive house full of paintings (Paimon being an expert on art and science) was probably the son of a member of the cult or something

The part where the mother did the seance, I feel like she summoned Charlie by accident, the "Seance" was'nt really a seance but a ritual to summon Paimon into the Son, because Charlie inside her mother seemed confused, implying that the spirit doing the supernatural tricks was not Charlie, nor was the spirit at Joan's house her Grandson.
