Hereditary

Me, going into this movie pretty blind: Oh okay, it’s more like a family drama centered around mental illness and trauma, why is everyone talking  about it being so scary?

Halfway through: WAS THAT HER HEAD!

Last 20 minutes: Why did I watch this alone! Make it stop!

But for real, without Toni Collette’s insanely great performance, when this movie goes full Exorcist it just wouldn’t have worked. The ending is divisive but I loved it. If you’re going to toy with us the whole movie about rituals and cults, and not end with a demon being crowned king while naked and headless people bow down, then I don’t know what will make you happy.
