A lot of people have been misinterpreting the significance of Annie’s sleepwalking scenes. When Annie almost burns her children alive while sleepwalking she is doing it to protect Peter from his fate as a vessel for Paimon. Again when she is seemingly trying to pull Peters head off that is her subconsciously trying to stop the ritual from coming to fruition. If Peter died the ritual couldn’t be completed until another male was born into their families bloodline. Some subconscious form of maternal instincts were influencing Annie. It’s a shame she wasn’t successful.

I just saw the movie for the second time today, and I noticed something. Things must not have been moving along fast enough for Paimon. Here's why. There is a scene where the mother is painting one of her miniatures and she reaches for an orange bottle of paint, but an uncapped bottle of teal paint gets knocked over... that is farther away. We, the audience, don't notice because the director doesn't want you to so he angles the camera to make look as if the mother has knocked it over. But she actually hadn't. The bottle is too far away to have been knocked over by the mother, and she doesn't notice it herself either. The paint spills onto the scrap of paper that Joanie wrote her number on for the mother. In the next scene the mother goes over to Joanie's house where she notices the door mat. I think Paiman tipped over that bottle of paint to initiate contact with Joanie, because he was getting frustrated things weren't moving fast enough. He wanted a male body dammit!!

@@DatNiceDude Except not, since these sorts of people in the movie are clearly devoting their children to an evil force because they're evil and they're enslaved to it probably to a large degree. Christians (by and large) devote their children to God freely because they want them to be free FROM evil. In Christianity, God doesn't force parents or scare them with wicked imagery to devote their children, He gives them the choice to walk along a godly path. And the children ultimately have to decide for themselves if they want to continue living in a godly way as they mature, they're not coaxed into it by pernicious and evil means (though admittedly some parents are overbearing and do wrong in order to try and get their children to follow after them). But either way, a reasonable parent will want to impart what they think is best to their children, religious or not.

SPOILERS AHEAD . . . I definitely think the demon was originally born into Charlie's body. At the end of the film, when Paimon (now in Peter's body) is crowned in the treehouse, Joan not only addresses Paimon, the demon, as "Charlie" and explains to him who he really is, but she specifically says "we've corrected your first female body". The word "corrected" here indicates that the demon was never really intended to occupy a female according to the cult's plans. She also says "body", singular, not "bodies", plural, as well as describing this body as Paimon's "first". In addition, the film puts a lot of emphasis on the fact that Annie's first pregnancy (with Peter) was not a healthy one, as she constantly tried to miscarry by "doing everything they told me I'm supposed to" while pregnant, since at the time, she was "scared", likely because she instinctively knew about her mother's eventual plan for the baby (this is also evidenced in Annie's sleepwalking/unconscious attempts to kill her children). Because of this, I think that the grandmother's plan was for the demon to possess her daughter's child in utero (remember, she convinced Annie to go through with the pregnancy, and the book Annie finds says that Paimon initially possesses the most "vulnerable" host available, which an unborn baby would obviously be), but because of the risks that Annie's actions posed to the (male) fetus, Paimon was either unable or unwilling to possess it. Because of this turn of events, the grandmother and the cult were forced to wait for Annie's next, more healthy pregnancy (with Charlie) to give the demon a vessel, and that vessel, unfortunately for the cult, ended up being female, making the later transfer of the demon into Peter's body necessary. Charlie even says that her grandmother wished she were a boy. The book Annie finds in her mother's things specifically says that Paimon requires a male vessel, so I don't see why the grandmother and the cult would purposely introduce him into any female vessel, let alone three, before introducing him into the male one that he required. That being said, I do think all of the (three generations' worth of) beheadings of Peter's (female) family members, not just Charlie's, were somehow a necessary part of the ritual of transferring the demon into his body.

I'm glad you liked it, let me start off by saying. I understand it's all subjective. But for me, while I will absolutely defend the film from a technical standpoint, it really fell flat for me. The direction was inspired, the cinematography was absolutely stunning, the performances (particularly form Toni Collette and Alex Wolff) were outstanding. But where the first two acts built up everything exceedingly well, the third act fell *so* flat for me. Everything up to the third act felt like it was more than what it was. The underlying themes and metaphors were clear, but not heavy-handed, it did its job well. But in the third act, the reveal of what was going on, it all felt so cliche, so basic. The ending felt like I was watching the middle of any number of movies I've seen before, if that makes sense. I don't know. Like I said, I'm glad most people liked it. I make my living in the horror genre, so any horror that does commercially and critically well, I'm appreciative of, and I fully support it. I think it's awesome that it's got people talking about it! I will absolutely be there opening night for Ari Aster's next effort, because I think hereditary was as strong a debut feature for a filmmaker as I've ever seen. But for me, it just wasn't nearly as scary as it was purported to be. Again though, I'm glad you liked it!

I just really love film, as an artist medium , as a way to tell a story or many stories with, as an experience.

Annie thinks she has it figured out but Paimon, as mentioned, is known for mischief. And also since he wasn’t done with Annie, he decides to just ignite the father instead of her. It’s also because having Annie feel the guilt of killing her husband would break her down even more and put her at that intense vulnerable state that Paimon needs to take control.

The one thing people keep glazing over by literally never mentioning it is the scene when Charlie is walking barefoot toward some fire in the meadow near their home. Annie comes out and stops Charlie from continuing on but makes no mention of a fire, so I can't figure out if it was really there or if Charlie was imagining it. Also? When Annie forces Peter and her husband to come downstairs to do the seance she is possessed by Charlie, right??? But Charlie never says much while alive and never seems afraid either, so the momentary possession of Annie by Charlie doesn't make any sense to me. What am I missing?

Grandma was never possessed by paimon. She was the conjurer who brought about paimon in Charlie. we can figure this out by the picture of grandma being showered with gold coins and the drawing from the book with "Riches to the conjurer" as it's caption. Also the art plays a big role in the whole story arc, as paimon is known as having the knowledge of all arts and secret things.
@bebop25232 ай бұрын
It’s not an either/or situation, there definitely are stories of conjurers being possessed by the spirit they conjured. There are other hands throughout the movie that the grandmother was possessed at one point, for example Annie talks about how her mother had dissociative identity disorder, a.k.a. multiple personality disorder, but the implication is that she was actually possessed and the demon was the other “personality.” That also explains why her corpse was beheaded, because both Charlie and Annie were beheaded after being Paimon’s hosts. He can jump from host to host, so it seems like he was first conjured by the grandma, then she tried to transfer him to the grandson, but wasn’t able to so she transferred him to her granddaughter instead, then to the mom, then to the son

Am I the only one who sees the similarities between this film and The Witch? I mean besides the obvious (they're both horror movies from first time director's, produced by A24), they both center on a family who just suffered a tragedy (the baby in The Witch and the grandma in this film), both have the family slowly fall apart because of said tragedy, the family members die in the same order (the teenager, the father, the mother), and the only surviving member is the eldest child, who leaves to join the group responsible for the events of the film. When we got out of the screening for this film, my friend and I joked about it maybe being a secret sequel to The Witch, and that the demon from this movie was Black Philip trying to get a human host. Update after receiving comments from other place where I brought this up: I should clarify. I'm not saying that this film was a rip off of The Witch, just that they have very similar plots. I do believe that there are enough things that Hereditary does differently to where I feel like I didn't just watch the same movie. I mean, Baby Driver has the same exact plot as Drive, but those films are otherwise VERY different.

I mean, yeah; but that's more just a similar premise that is in no way unique to those three. There are films like The Shining, The Babadook, Oculus; "Family goes crazy and turns on each other" might as well be a sub-genre in horror. This film and The Witch had almost the same exact basic plot.

Has anyone else noticed in this film that the color blue is RAMPANT when Paimon or his influence is around? From the blue bird hitting the window to her grandmother's blue casket, to the blue paint getting spilled, it's there. They get explicit when Paimon manifests with that blue light, but I'm in awe that even in the parking lot of that craft store the guy in the background walking with a woman is wearing that a blue shirt.

I noticed a possible rule changing mistake that the filmmakers were able to catch: When Annie is leaving Joan’s house after the seance she hands her the paper with the weird language to do her own seance at home. Joan says “make sure the whole family is in the house”. If you look closely at the actress she actually mouths the words “the room”. By that time her grandmothers body was in the attic. If they left the audio for her saying “the room” it would’ve changed the rules and ultimately been a plot hole for the ending.

Awesome analysis. I was wondering if anyone would mention the peanut m&ms. Also worth noting Charlie's little sheepskin jacket she had on in bed. Almost like a hint at being offered up for the slaughter. Additionally, it seems as though it is inferred that the grandmother feeding Charlie may have had something to do with the demon being in her. Or at least aiding in the receptive state for Charlie. Like tenderizing the meat, so to speak. Well the tea that was given to Annie by Joanie had a little black something that she wiped from her mouth. If I were to wager a guess I would think that whatever she ingested in the tea (perhaps a bit of grandma's head) aided in making her receptive to whatever spirit needed to inhabit her to carry out the ritual. Just a thought.
@briankoontz16 жыл бұрын
I agree that it makes some sense for the m&ms to be peanut, but how do we know they are? Couldn't they be regular m&ms? After all, Charlie is shown eating a non-peanut chocolate candy bar at the funeral - she just really likes chocolate, which comes up later at the party when she can't resist chocolate cake, even though it should be fairly obvious even to Charlie who is distressed and doesn't want to be at the party that the cake has nuts in it.
@specificsoup4 жыл бұрын
Brian Koontz they’re bigger than regular m&ms and it looked like it was definitely m&ms. Could have been some other candy, idek, I think it’s just like a sneaked in detail that she is and isn’t allergic at different times, because the demon already at least .. partially occupies her body. Her “allergy” is sort of opportunistic for the cult to orchestrate their plans.
@NothingToPointOut244 жыл бұрын
I'd imagine they weren't peanut M&M's, but in the cake scene, the nuts were clearly visible that Charlie had to know what she was doing. From the Hershey bar at the funeral to the Dove bar at the pigeon beheading and then the M&M's, I think it was just to show that Charlie would eat anything chocolate. I've heard theories that suggest she never had an allergy, but to me thats silly considering the parents asked her in the beginning at the funeral if the chocolate had nuts in it. First time I've heard about that sheepskin robe. Little stuff like that is why this movie is awesome. Also with the herbs, in addition to Annie's tea, Charlie was fed from a young age by her grandmother (that would've likely been Peter had Annie allowed her mother near him) and remember that she wanted Charlie to be a boy. The herbs were also in the weed that Peter smoked when he had that reaction to it.

Someone on another video in the comment section pointed out that the scene where Alex Wolff raises his hand and slams his face against the desk was more than likely caused by Toni Collette’s dead brother. He was probably trying to kill him so that he wouldn’t be possessed. (Earlier in the movie there’s a conversation where they talk about the brother’s “schizophrenia” and how he killed himself (probably to save himself from being possessed).

Like a bad divorce where they split up the kids and the parents don't even talk to each other. It's great also because at the end of the movie the camera does the same in reverse thus giving the viewers an out to the movie, because at that point it was getting pretty uncanny.

All they managed to do was transfer Charlie's spirit into Peter's body (after killing her family), dooming her to a second life of being worshiped by crazy people (which is why you can see the trauma/ insanity settling into her/ Peter's face as the cultist bombards her with all that BS about Paimon). But hey, she was worried about who was going to take care of her right? At least that's covered now.

I'm hearing some people describe this movie as a black comedy. I've listened to the director talk about the humor in The Shining, but not specifically address if there was intentional humor in this film. A buddy of mine in Mobile, Al (unsophisticated) went to see the movie on opening night. He told that, although the movie was unnerving and definitely was scary, he burst out laughing at the car beheading scene. Then he told me, his laughing set off a chain reaction in the audience, and for the rest of the movie the audience was laughing at "inappropriate" times. Strange, I know. It's got me wondering, have other theaters had similar reactions. I also saw it on opening night, and my mostly full theater was quiet the entire time. But, I guess, in a vacuum there are some funny looking images. Like the headless corpse floating up into the treehouse at the end, the beheading I mentioned. But anyway, would love to hear some thoughts on this.

my theory is that none of the movie actually happened, well, maybe a couple scenes. but, i think that most of the film's situations is annie creating situations through her miniatures (kind of like a director), and that light is from her magnifying glasses (glad you saw that too). so this whole plot that keeps spinning more and more out of control is just annie's way of reconciling how she never had a true connection with her mother and how she is dealing with that grief.

I actually think the Charlie who Joanie was referring to is Peter’s uncle. His reaction to seeing everyone was way different than Charlie’s (his sister) reaction when she possessed her mother. That was the most eerie part about Peter coming back after you thought he died, because we kind of forget that his uncle was chosen by Ellen to be the main vessel before her granddaughter was born. I also thought it was very interesting that Annie’s husband never mentioned to her that he got an e-mail that Ellen’s grace was dug up. And then when she thought she was the one to be burned to death to save Peter, her husband was. I think that was his punishment for calling her crazy and acting as though he has no idea what she’s talking about. I personally think he knew way more about the cult than he made it seem.

Noone's perfect, especially when attempting to oppose a demon. I mean, it's not like people train for that. Steve, the least mentally ill person in the movie, is the most useless because he doesn't believe in demons, even after receiving direct evidence of supernatural events during the family seance scene. Annie, the most mentally ill living person in the movie, is mentally ill precisely because she recognizes the reality of the demon, and recognizes that her family (barring the clueless Steve) is being corrupted by the demon. What she would like to do is to purify her children, to remove the demonic influence from their lives. But she has no background in that, no knowledge of it, and no ability to do so. She merely has good intentions and a lot of effort, yet even so that takes her a long way and delays Paimon's ability to enter the world, only failing when she witnesses the demon burn her husband to death just a few feet in front of her, and her will is damaged, allowing Paimon to possess her. It's quite unfair to criticize Annie for increasing Paimon's presence in their home through the seance. It would have been quite rude to have gone through her mother's things and uncovered crucial aspects of reality prior to when she did so. Bear in mind that she was attempting to *improve* relations with her mother until her mother's death. Also, Paimon already had *some* presence in the home prior to the seance, as he was the likely force that wrote the demonic names on the walls.
