    Just watched Hereditary. I know I'm late to the party. I thought it was very good. 1,000 time better than Bird Box and A Quiet Place, two movies lots of people enjoyed and thought they were poop.

    I've read Hereditary was really scary and lots of people were scared. I honestly, as an adult, can't be scare by a movie anymore, i dont understand how grown up can be scared by a movie.

    The last time I was 'scared' by a movie as an adult-ish was when I watched The Exorcist for the first time, i think i was around 16-17 years old, it was on my minde for a couple days.

    And the second time was when I watched Blair Witch Project, the scene were the kids tap and run around the tent. I was 20 years old.

    Now I found scary movies, cool, not scary. And I think the old horror movies (pre-90's) are more effective.

    • watch his other one Midsommar next, very good.fadein11
    • I will watch it next week :)Bennn
    • Very hard to watch, I hadn’t watched a horror movie in years and of all the ones I chose to jump back in with lol_niko
    • ''of all the ones I chose to jump back in with lol'' Can you reformulate this sentence _niko, i dont understandBennn
    • It means that after not having watched a horror movie in many years because they didn’t appeal to me any more I couldn’t stomach them_niko
    • Then I saw the buzz for hereditary and thought, sounds pretty good, I’ll start watching horror moves again, how bad could it be? Turns out, Very bad lol_niko
    • And by bad I don’t mean not well done, it was, just very difficult to watch, very brutal especially with the sister_niko
    • ok! Really? it was that bad for you? I think the actors were very good and the movie was enjoyable/good. For me a very bad movie is something like A Quiet PlaceBennn
    • "This generation's Exorcist" as stated on that poster is ridiculous tho. the Exorcist is one of the best movie ever made, period. And The best horror movie everBennn
    • You didn't think it was incredibly stupid at the end how it just devolved into a basic no-rules scary nonsense with people crawling on ceilings n' stuff?monospaced
    • It was cool until the end when they just went completely off the rails and threw away the hours they built into something great. Just said fuck it, we give up.monospaced
    • Yeah a bitBennn
    • It’s not really a “twist” if you just CHANGE everything at the end to something else completely.monospaced
    • you're right, i still enjoyed itBennn
    • I felt like it failed when they had to explain what was happening at the end.lemmy_k
