Midsommar vs. Hereditary

- movie begins with unexpected family tragedy and lead character hysterical crying over death of loved one
- quick shots of cult-esque imagery/symbolism and motifs
- use of intriguing IRL cult/demon terminology from olden times that the audience doesn’t know, and has to google afterwards
- main characters are big weed fans, and drug use goes horribly awry
- tons of not-conventionally-attractive naked ppl
- young disfigured person
- brutal close-up shot of a dead bloody head laying on its side
- spooky “cluck” sound from Hereditary repeated throughout movie, vs. the sharp inhale/exhale sound repeated in Midsommar
- movie ends with an intense ritual ceremony held inside a mysterious shed out back, in which one of the main characters is crowned “king” or queen etc.

I am describing both movies.

I loved Hereditary but Ari Aster went and made the same fucking movie again. There's a fine line between a "director's trademark" and pulling this shit.

Were the 2 movies connected?

Please, my post, she's very sick

Midsommar is a pretty solid, yet flawed 7. Hereditary is closer to a 5

he’s building a universe and that’s a good thing

He's trying to tell people something about real life. The shit in these movies is happening right now somewhere out there in reality.

I laughed at the Pubie Pie

jordan peele did the same thing with get out and us, why horror filmmakers are devoided of creativity?

Yeah but they are still both really good. If he does a similar plot again, he'll be exposed as a hack, but if he goes in a different direction in his next film he will solidify himself as one of the best directors working today.
