"Hereditary" is a great horror film that I tried my best to stay away from but a lot of people wanted me to talk about it. I'm glad that my mind was changed about seeing this film that deals with loss and the disfunction of family. It's not your typical horror film, all these characters have motives and brains that push the story forward and there's a lot of mystery as how these characters themselves operate. Everyone in this film is dealing with a lot and it's great to see a story where all this ache plays out and it's quite a thing to witness. I love Toni Collette and she makes this film her bitch. I love how the filmmaker impliments cannabis into the psyche of Peter, the character that did the most damage in the family that pretty much sets the whole mood of the film and we don't let go of him. They're all here to stay and Charlie makes sure her presence is known. I dig the film's cinematography, it's something that M. Night Shyamalan could have made but he couldn't pull it off. There are no twists, things just happen and it all makes sense even down to the last shot of the film. The third act alone is a masterclass in filmmaking. Human sacrifices are different in this film and you can feel the evil step by step which makes us, the viewer, to be on our toes and to also never let our guard down when it comes to coven-like spirituality.

Four out of four tokes.
