The fact that Toni Collette was snubbed for even a NOMINATION at the Oscars for this role should be considered a crime.
period!
She is AWESOME
she is SO underrated
When the role is dark, the actor is often passed over when it comes to awards.
100% agreed! She should have been nominated.
toni collette was ROBBED
She is an absolutely brilliant actress!!
Truth
She was she was amazing in this movie.
SHE HONESTLY WAS
Alex wloff was really good he's surprised me to be honest
Colletes scream when she discoverers her daughters body is so terrifying, it always makes my stomach sink!
when she screams out Charlie while crying literally makes me wanna crawl out of my skin, its like my body can't register that pain
A lot of ppl didn't notice during that scene there was a flash of light outside of the windows. That was Paimon leaving Charlie body and waiting to control the next vulnerable host(the mother)
It’s gut wrenching. Also that shot of her bent over like she’s giving birth, wailing while the husband has to hold her up. So devastating.
Yep
I saw this movie by myself in the theater, and those screams made me feel ill. Had to put the popcorn down...
That attic head banging is going to haunt me for life god.
What about the piano wire though
That was kind of funny though, sorry ^^
Fucking same, seeing this movie in theaters and seeing that scene literally made me cover my eyes and I never do that lol
For me the scariest part is that creepy ass scene where Peter is in his bed and you can see the possessed mother standing on her hands and feet at the end of the bed, on the floor.
This scene genuinely traumatized me
I found all of the last act extremely awkward and downright funny at times. The weird floating, naked people and the head banging looked more comedic to me. Plus the two suicides at the end made me laugh too. The movie was good up untill the half way point
"I'm done."
You're not even halfway close.
The dinner scene for this movie had so much tension in the movie, I saw this in cinemas and I felt like I got yelled at by Toni Collette, she was so good in this movie
"All I get back is that FUCKING FACE ON YOUR FACE."
I don't know about you all but for me it was profoundly uncomfortable because it felt so realistic (says a lot about my childhood, I know). I feel like movie families in general are so fake. Either the parents are *too* nice, or its cliche drunken violent abuse. They don't fight the way (many) real families do--petty and ugly at the same time. But this I felt like could have been an authentic confrontation between a mother and her teenage son.
@@TomorrowWeLive I cried during it.lol it was so overwhelming. I loved it
Right? I felt like I shouldn't even be there, like I was at a friend's house and their family started arguing. What a performance
Alex Wolff did a good job in that scene too. Gotta give him some credit tbh, but yeah...Toni should've been nominated for an Oscar+her American accent is insane considering she's an Aussie
at first i was like
her: you're King Paimon, one of the 8 kings of hell
him: *wearing a burger king hat* "yes"
Well I think the Burger King guy is truly on of the other 8 kings of Hell.
is it supposed to be made of flesh, or?
@@fatterpillar no, its just a paper crown
@@drivingstudios6151 nah from the BTS the person who made the crown said they were going for a fleshlike appearance
For whatever godforsaken reason, I watched this with headphones on. When that 'cluck' sound went off with her in the minivan, I'm pretty sure I levitated about three feet. Glad to see I wasn't the only one (Tom's face was priceless) XD
LMAOOO
SAME.
oh my goodness, me too....i watched it alone because a friend told me this was good (i love horror) and i literally flew off my bed,..never been more terrified
Same dude, reflexively took off my headphones and it fell down. That was so unexpected
what minute wsa his face
What disturbed me was every time the son got so scared to the point where he’d regress to a younger child’s mind and start crying things like “Mommy mommy!”
So chilling.
I also find this creepy and unnerving but every time, I wait for whoever is watching to laugh at it. It's a fine line to walk and not everybody appreciates it. One guy in the cinema on my first viewing was laughing like this was a comedy.
@@HelloMisterJAMWAH I laughed when he jumped out the window lol
@@213byron That was the moment when I kind of understood the laughter. Still annoying when you're totally invested, but the "argh" beforehand doesn't quite work.
Yes! Was trying to put this into words. Thank you! Totally agree
@@HelloMisterJAMWAH okay but honestly if i went through what peter went through, i'd kill myself and jump out of a window too
Hereditary may just be the most uncomfortable viewing experience I've ever sat through. And I loved it.
Why? It vastly misrepresents King paimon
@@travis9260 It’s not meant to be an accurate demonology documentary. It’s a horror movie.
I had the same feeling, I also felt so uncomfortable throughout the whole movie, which makes me like and dislike it same time. There is at one point this idk thumping sound, almost like a heartbeat, that just does something with the atmosphere and your mind, I took my headset off at one moment to make it stop for a bit.
@@GhoulishGwyn yeah and very few people who even watched it are going to know demonology or spirit related lore. It definitely wasn’t the directors intent.
Pshh you should watch the Nightingale. Not as uncomfortable throughout, but it has the most disturbing scene I've ever witnessed
I unfortunately heard a mom watching her daughter dying (falling out of the balcony) ten years ago. That happened a block away from my house. That scream still hunts me. The family (mother, father, daughter and daughter's fiancé) was celebrating a goal in a football game. Collette was the closest thing I've heard in movies. And this was scary as hell.
At 39 years old and a Horror veteran, this is the first movie I ever had to switch off. Took me 2 days to psyche myself up enough to finish it.
Same. I did finish it in one night, but I had to turn it off twice. I think maybe seasoned horror fans appreciate it more.
No movie has ever made me sooo uncomfortable and disturbed. I watched the car decapitation scene in the theaters and I literally almost had to walk out... I could not sleep the night after and slept with the lights on.
Huge horror fan as well, and in my 35 years there’s very few movies that legit unnerved my whole psyche like this movie. I was speechless after I finished it. I got up and walked away a few times to collect myself 😅
It's a modern masterpiece. So very rare for a horror movie in this day and age to be genuinely horrifying.
@@CS-pg4go Many movies have gore, you're just not used to it bud, that's not what makes this movie so disturbing
Not sure if you caught the grief meeting scene where Annie says her brother committed suicide because their mother was trying to put people in him. He was the male body the mother was trying to use. The mother couldn’t then use Peter because Annie was estranged from her. When they reconciled the mother used Charlie. This movie needs multiple views to grasp it all. Love this movie!
Lol i just commented that, there's that time charlie says her grandmother wished that she was a boy, this movie definitely has that second view high value
exactly, the clicked noise charlie makes is actually Paimon, but as we see, Charlie makes the clicking sound from (what we assume) from the beginning meaning that Paimon has been in her the whole time
@@sridevisudhahar309 I think the mother was at the birth wasnt she? I think she pushed the original soul out right there and its been just Paimon from birth.
@@sridevisudhahar309 apparently its to call camels as paimon rides on camels
Once again, you guys nailed it. “You don’t want to watch it again because of the horrifying content, but you have to watch it again for the craft”.
I totally agree, I find this film truly horrifying and disturbing but can’t help ending up re watching it.
This is probably the most deeply disturbing/unsettling movie I've ever seen
Try Martyrs (2008), Salo 120 Days Of Sodom, A Serbian Film, I Spit On Your Grave (1978), Begotten, Last House On The Left (1972) or Cannibal Holocaust. Your opinion might change.
@@cst8021 And Man Behind the Sun
@@cst8021 these almost don't deserve to be called "movies", tbh. It's not art, there are no stories, just shock value
@@za9ck Hey, I didn't say I was in love with all of them. But, they do accomplish what they set out to accomplish. As far as genuine quality filmmaking, Martyrs is top notch. Last House, while brutal and unpleasant, it tells a compelling story. Salo is very well made, but a horrible nihilistic unpleasant film to watch. Still not sure what the hell Begotten was, but the beginning is one of the more disturbing things ever filmed. ASF and CH, not my idea of fun either.
@@cst8021 those are just shock for shock’s sake. Barely even movies at that point.
I saw this in a small mostly empty theater in Copenhagen. My husband was largely baffled/disinterested. However, a woman who I did NOT know moved two seats next to mine, and after the "car scene" progressively moved one seat closer until she was next to mine, burying her gaze in my shoulder out of sheer terror. At the end, we said hello and let out a cathartic but nervous laugh out loud, still rattled and shaken. I must say, it really enhanced the mood of the film! Watching your reaction was a great pleasure!
wait what.. she kept sitting close to you? isn't that scarier? (;ŏ﹏ŏ)
Sorta creepy at first but then touching once she used you as a comfort!
Going on a date with your husband to the movies turns into a date with a stranger? What in the wattpad?
was her name Joan?
i watched it in cinema and there were just a couple sat far behind me...& they were probably the closest companion in my life ever.
The fact that Toni Colette gives such a superb performance, and yet we also have her character's headless corpse flying into a treehouse is one of many reasons this movie stands out. It's truly one of the most unsettling things I've ever watched.
My view of the “I expel you! Peter! GET OUT!” scene is that crazy cultist Joanie is trying to exorcise Peter from his own body.
The idea is that then cheeky little Paimon can get all up inside his new teenage schoolboy male host. The creepy little king of hell that he is.
The messed up thing is that Paimon was already inhabiting the sister. Paimon had been the girl since she was born and when she died his/her soul was released. And once Peter was driven insane by his family dying and in a sense killed his body was a ready vessel for Paimon/the sister. Sorry I forget her name. It's actually implied Paimon was the daughter when what was Peter does the clucking noise that the little sister did.
Nobody ever notices all of the people standing outside at 17:47 when it transitions to night! One of the creepiest shots ever.
Do u know what minute in the movie is wht ur talking abt? I would like to see
when i first saw this i rewinded to verify it was people and not decorations and i freaked the fuck out
oh my god, that shot and the shot where Peter is sleeping and Annie is in the top corner of the bedroom ceiling...i didn't see it at first but when i did, my heart literally flew out of my chest
Stuff like this is in the movie throughout. If you can watch it again, turn your TV's brightness/black level up a bit and keep your eyes on the corners of shots and shadows. There's tons of horrific stuff hiding in this movie.
Toni Collette is phenomenal in this movie. She's so infuriatingly underrated.
If you took this path, the witch and the lighthouse are both a must - watch.
I agree!
I see the four of them as the A24 horror package. They’re all fantastic.
Agree! I also just saw Saint Maud, another great horror from A24!
And midsommar
I was bored stupid with The Witch but I did like The Lighthouse.
I picked up Saint Maud today so looking forward to that.
The lingering shot on Peter after the accident had me horrified at the cinema. I’ve experienced anxiety occasionally from getting high but thinking of how heightened that anxiety would be after knowing you led to your sister’s death (by decapitation no less) and knowing you have to face your parents afterwards was too much for me to handle. Driving back in that state with your sister’s headless body in the back ...
Why didn’t he drive to the hospital so they didn’t have to see that
@@jd7338 Complete shock is my guess. Like he thought it was a dream or something.
Absolute, real horror
@@taags And on top of that he was still high at the time. (Poor dude...)
@@jd7338 she’s already dead so he didn’t need to go there anymore
This is easily one of the best horror movies I’ve ever seen. But I can never watch it again.
Is it weird that someone watched it three times already? Asking for a friend
@@woolfric Nah. I think it actually gets better at the second (or third, or fourth...) viewing. There is so much that you end up catching only in hindsight
But that's honestly how you know they're amazing!! Some of my favorite horror movies ve only seen once and the only way I can watch them again is through RUclips reactions 🤣🤣
I smiled when I saw this reaction had been uploaded 😏
who are you?
@@VinOnline who are you?
@@Arms2 who are you?
@@ausername1972 who are you?
@@CarWashReviews-Ethan what are you?
Toni Collette should have been nominated as should have the son. And draining is the right word for this move. I was exhausted when I finished and it sits with you for days.
5:25 "Fuck. Off." Perfect summation of this flick. 👍 Another awesome reaction, guys! Makes me proud to be a Cinner. 😉
I'm sorry but if a glass of water decided to take a short stroll across my kitchen table unaided, I'd be in my car and headed out of state!! The ghosts can have all of my shit...
This is my favorite horror film, so I'm about to drown you guys in details (BTW this is stuff I confirmed straight from the script, and other behind the scenes things) Here we go:
* In Annie's opening monolouge, she's wearing the Paimon symbol as a necklace. So is her grandmother's body.
*When they arrive home from the funeral, the floor is covered in footprints, and you can hear someone fleeing and slamming a door before they enter. The cult is always present and was setting shit up from the get go.
* The grandma was trying "to put someone inside" of Annie's brother- he was grandma's first attempt at the possession but he escaped by killing himself. Ties in to Annie trying to kill her kids before it could all unfold. Aster confirmed she knows on some subconsious level their lives are pawns for this demon to be summoned and she was trying to end that during her sleepwaling episodes.
* Aster had Charlie's decapitation planned as one of the initial inspirations for his script. He wanted to lull viewers into thinking they were watching a normal "possessed child" film then shock them by dropping viewers into a horrifying family drama.
* Members of the grief meeting can be spotted as some of the people in the cult at the end
* Joan's chalkboard can be seen in the back of her car - she had just bought it
* As Joan says "Louie, are you ok?" you can see Paimon's light floating away from Annie's head
* Ari Aster said the tounge cluck during Annie's car ride home was way more effective than he ever anticipated and gets a huge response out of every audience
* "I didn't, I was trying to save you" - Annie, when she tried to set them all on fire, was actually on the track to save them from a much worse fate
* Steve bursting into flames serves as an indicator that the family has no control - Paimon will do absolutely what he wants and torment this family until he ultimately overtakes peter. When Annie sees her husband burning, she is broken enough to be possessed. The "most vunerable host" as the book said.
* When Steve burns - didn't see if you reacted to it - but the house is surrounded by naked cult members.
* Basically the point of the plot is: the grandma was trying to summon this demon who wanted a male body, but they were estranged when Annie has a boy, and connected when Annie had a girl...so Grandma's goal was to kill the daughter and have her possess the son. That way, the demon would give the cult the riches they desired.
Hope that helps a bit!
Don't know if you'd know, but I dont get is why does the grandma have to use her own family members (son, grandchildren) why not use a male stranger as a host body for Paimon?
@@tubiviral9093 because it has to be a blood relative - down her family tree. That's why Steve couldn't feel anything during the seance but Peter and Annie could feel the energy in the air.
@@danwilliams2551 Ohhhh. Was that mentioned in the film that it had to be a blood relative?
Watched it two nights ago and I'm already trying to remember scenes. Guess i got to watch it again.
@@tubiviral9093 the movie name itself is HEREDITARY so yeah it had to be a blood related member.
@@lilly-vi8bm no shit sherlock. The question was why does it have to be a direct bloodline as a host, not why is the show called Hereditary.
Providing I've already seen the movie myself, there is something extremely amusing about watching your shocked reactions to films like this that are unquestionably frightening and disturbing. It's high entertainment during the pandemic. Thank you so much.
The sister was apparently possessed from birth, so the entire movie there never was a "Charlie", only when the mum's voice changed is when we're supposed to have heard the real Charlie. I think the tongue click is supposed to represent the Demon
LOL no. There was no possession. There was nothing supernatural at all. The grandmother had schizophrenia, which is a hereditary disease. The mother, daughter and son also had it and all the crazy stuff shown is just their own hallucinations.
@@kenmolinaro "LOL" yes definitely something to add when describing this movie lol very lol right? Lol fucking chill out let people interpret the movie the way they want to, its their view on it not yours
@@kenmolinaro Quotes from a 'Variety' interview with Ari Aster about Charlie being possessed from birth:
*"From the moment she’s born. I mean, there’s a girl that was displaced, but she was displaced from the very beginning."*
*"Charlie is the first successful host for Paimon. It’s transferred from Charlie to Peter at the end."*
Yes mental illness runs through the family and schizophrenia being a hereditary disease gives a sense that there is no escape. Which falls in line with the theme of free will, the characters/family (especially Peter have no free will). This is further expressed when the director says *"This is absolutely inevitable, the family has absolutely no agency."*
The movie seems to blur the lines between mental illness/hallucinations and the supernatural. It is not as black and white as you make it.
@@RB-H The director is wrong. I am right.
@@kenmolinaro Sure Ken
I’m certain this will be considered an all time classic in a decade or two. The big chills in this film are absolutely timeless.
God that headbanging though.
The dinner table scene is so phenomenal. The pain is so raw throughout the whole movie.
This director likes to place scenes of bloodshed, death and carnage against a background of very nice wood paneling.
I never really got over this film. The anxiety that builds throughout the film interjected with abject and absolute horror. One of the most effective horror movies ever, and i've never fully shaken it off since i saw it.
never has a clicking of your tongue been so deadly.
You forget it’s a horror movie at times which really drops your guard. The naked cult people moving around the house still freaked me out
Fun fan theory: The young couple you see walking into the craft store is Christian and Dani from Midsommar. :) Hereditary is one of my absolute favorite movies. Glad you guys finally got to experience it. :)
Oooo never knew that! Thanks 🙂
That's just a fan theory. The director has not come out and said this is actually the case.
@@juliocabral2084 That’s probably why the first three words in the original comment are “fun fan theory”
@@donnybuoy Yeah, thanks. :)
@@donnybuoy my bad, multitasking at work
You two are the most enjoyable deconstructionist reviewers/reactors on RUclips. I mean it. And you're so young (I'm almost 60, I'm allowed to say that), yet you approach the material with such candor and intelligence. It's a joy to watch these with you.
Well said! And I agree completely.
Iya itu benar sekali
“I’m done”
*little did he know that it was about to get much, much worse*
read this in morgan freeman voice😂
I know it's been posted already, but Toni Collette is unbelievably good in this. The dinner table scene is devastating. The whole cast is great, but holy shit...Toni Collette.
I saw this in the theater, couldn't stop thinking about it and went back to see it the very next day.
When the audience in the cinema (remember those?) gasps as one or whispers "oh my god", you know you're watching quality horror.
I was in the theater for Exorcist 3 - Legion during the infamous nurse beheading scene. I've never in my life heard an audience scream so loud all at once.
@@JasonHauser125 They were screaming in horror over watching such a shit movie
I barely remember when audiences whispered at all. Anymore, they just talk out loud as if they were in their own living rooms.
Your experience was way better than mine. It was just a friend and I, and a bunch of teens in the movie theater, and they bursted laughing when the decapitation scene happened. I couldn’t fully enjoy the moment, so I had to go watch it again for a second time hah.
@@Schroeddddr Cinema in England is where I saw it.
As soon as I saw the notification I was like...this movie gon fuck y’all up
Same
"Soul draining" is an excellent description of this. I saw it once and I did not feel the need to revisit because it made me feel absolutely dreadful.
Ari Aster is one of those directors who I now know is going to upset me without fail with each of his films. And yet I can't wait to see what he does next. God. Damn. Him.
“I think it’s about a family”
I mean the really sums it up pretty well
🤣
This movie is so unsettling makes me feel so uncomfortable and on edge. I feel like I couldn’t breathe for most of the film and half of the time it was because I was holding my breath from the anxiety.
dang that's a strong reaction
I haven't watched the video yet, but did you have a similar experience watching their reaction?
Lol after a few viewings it gets easier
@@shawnac9289 oo a view--are those extra watches from reactions, or you wanting to see it again?
For the most part I was either sad or facing some second-hand embarrassment (with 1 worrisome thing and 1 outburst of laughter 😅)
Me too. Some moments i wanted to cry with grief and horror, others i was just terrified and anxious from the suspense... i had so many emotions warring from the family dynamics and then the horror aspect, it was a wild ride
Watched this movie twice back to back, and I have to say if you watch it knowing the Cult is in control it’s much less scary. Especially because Charlie is trying to die. It removes most of the tension, at least for me, of scenes with her when you know it’s just Paimon being like “I said I wanted a body with a PENIS”
One of the most disturbing parts of the entire film is the end music. The best word to describe it is triumphant, yet the evil won. Nothing could came of anything that happened. That choice of music was perfection.
*FUN FACT* The Actor who plays peter, actually broke his nose when he slams his head against the desk
No he didn’t but he said that he would be willing to but Ari, the writer and director, said that sounded illegal for him to allow and didn’t want him to have to do that.
@Offkey Dreams In an interview with Alex he did mention the desk not being very cushiony and he got a bloody nose for real but he never mentioned a jaw injury. He said the worst part was his knees because they got a bloody and torn up when he jumped up and they scraped against the desk.
Alex Wolf is really really good in the movie that just came out on Amazon Prime: "The Sound of Metal." Not horror. It's about a drummer who is going deaf.
And that's a fun fact?
The Lighthouse and The Witch are both must-sees if y’all haven’t. So, so good.
Both must-watch films. Under The Skin, yet another A24 horror, is even better than either.
@@Melancthon7332 I would rank Under the Skin below these, but it’s also very good. The Blackcoat’s Daughter and Ex Machina as well.
Agreed! I hope they see at least one of these!
I second this! Slow burn horror at its finest! 💯
The Witch is one of my favorite movies and cemented my shortcut for knowing what horror movies I'll probably like: high critic score on RottenTomatoes and a low audience score.
I think hereditary and midsommar are horror made for film fans, and things like the conjuring universe are made for the mass audience horror fans. And I love both kinds, so not having a go at anyone's personal preferences.
As a film fan, I prefer The Conjuring universe.
Couldn't agree more. As a slasher fan I'm not a huge fan of supernatural/ghostly horror anyway, but Hereditary is incredible. "Meaningfully unsettling" will beat "gratuitous jump scare" every day.
I agree 100%, though I think more highly of films like Hereditary and Midsommar for sure.
Movies like the conjuring/insidious/whatever require zero thought. It’s wash, rinse, repeat. Hereditary and films like it have a much deeper meaning and an actual story to follow. Some don’t like to put forth any effort with films.
@@eliascrooker7773 As a film fan I consider The Conjuring as a very effective, well crafted yet slightly generic haunted house movie. Hereditary effected me on a deeper level, because of the way it put themes like trauma, guilt and family dynamics first. Because there is such a great emphasis on character building the horrorpart effected me more deeply and gave me anxiety days after watching it.
Man, this movie stays with you for days. I haven’t had a movie stay with me like that since “The Ring”
The ring is a Disney film compared to this..
@@PeppaJackablefor the time it came out it was a hereditary.
No movie made me as terrified as Hereditary. I’ve watched Midsommar on the same night, I literally couldn’t sleep after watching them both 😂
The woman in the field with fire around her was the dug up grandmother.
Crying at your reactions, the click in the car shit me up when you both jumped hahaha
You omitted one of the greatest scenes in the film: The family drama at dinner.
One thing i just notice on second view was when the mother was talking about her dead brother, she says he leaves a note saying the grandmother was trying to put people inside him, he wasn't schizophrenic, she was trying to make him a vessel for paimon all along
Hands down, this is the best reaction of Hereditary that I've seen. That loud click in the car scene gets me every time, happy to know I'm not alone.
Hereditary was the first horror film in a long time that got under my skin, Midsommar was the second. It's safe to say that I'm an Aster fan.
"Soul draining" is the perfect description for this film. Its doesn't let you rest, there is no break in its tense atmosphere. Midsommar gives you that break. It bewitches you with beautiful country, and brainwashes you with kind and attentive people. You can sense that the characters feel safe until its too late. I love both films, but I think it's the false security in Midsommar that makes it my favorite out of the two
It amazes me when people, and there's alot of them, don't appreciate this film. It's hands down one of the most engaging and disturbing horrors in a long time. The acting is absolutely stellar, cinematography is amazing, surprising plot changes, it actually has a story and lore unlike alot of modern horrors. And even the jump scares, which I usually see as a predictable cheap gimmick, are well done
“Yeah, it’s me from last week.”
“My daughter got decapitated.”
Me: 😂😂😂
In all seriousness, this is my favorite horror film of all time. The acting, the filmography, the set design, the sound - everything is done so amazingly. When I first watched it, it stuck with me and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I’ve seen this movie so many times and every single time I watch it, I catch something new. I’ve been subscribed to you guys for awhile and was so happy to see that you were doing a reaction to this movie. This is the type of film that you love to see people’s reaction to it. You guys are awesome! 👍👍👍
It was even scarier when I saw this in theaters. It’s great when it’s not just u feeling the tension that the movie gives off. I miss movie theaters!
Watching this in a dark theater was one of the most difficult experiences ever. We fast walked out of there.
Saw this in theaters and I was so disturbed. But the direction, music, acting were so superb, I realized it’s the best horror film I’ve seen in a really long time.
I left the theater and looked at my brother and said, “Bro, I’m not going to lie that’s one of the best horror films I’ve ever seen in my life. Like that was fucking incredible.”
Great reactions. Hereditary was one of the most unsettling cinema experiences I've ever had, but you have to admire the craft.
The moment with her in the top corner of the room is what really did it for me
"Fun" fact: Alex Wolff (who plays the son Peter) really hurt his nose until it was bleeding while he was slamming his head against the classroom table. And I think he actually needed therapy after the movie. That's a badass actor right there.
Aw, you didn't show your reactions to the naked man in the doorway. That's one of the best parts.
Hahahaha I forgot about that part
What about Toni freaking out at the dinner table? Where's that scene?
@@GreetingsFromBlackwoodFarm that scene was intense
“Best parts” - that’s what she said
The whole film will be in patreon, I think.
I’m sure it’s nothing but one of the ads for this video was car insurance 😳😳
😂😂😂
Hope they got a good bargain for Bodily Injury :) hahahaha
Paimon: Is also frequently written “Paymon”, and sometimes “Paimonia”. Probably from Hebrew, POMN, = a tinkling sound or small bell (Hebrew: פַּֽעֲמֹ֥ן). This is again derived from the Hebrew root POM, = to agitate, impel, or strike forward. The word POMN is employed in Exodus 28 : 33-34 and 39 : 25. Paimon is also called by the Rabbins by the title of OZAZL, Azazel, which is a name used in Leviticus with reference to the Scape-Goat. Its derivation is from OZ, = a Goat; and AZL, = to go away. It has frequently been warmly discussed whether the word in question means simply the Scape-Goat, or whether it signifies a Demon to whom that animal was dedicated. But in Rabbinic Demonology it is always used to mean one of the Chief Demons.
The end song also is relevant to Paimon "Before him goes a host of men with trumpets and well sounding cymbals, and all musical instruments."
This is some of the best cinematography and acting ever put to a horror film that amounts to an absolute suspense-filled masterpiece.
You pick up on so much that you didn't catch the first time on a rewatch. For example the scene when the family arrives home from the funeral, just before they walk through the door you can hear footsteps shuffling from the attic
I’ve seen this movie so many times (fav horror film) and never caught that. I’m going to have to go back and watch it again. It seems like every single time I watch this, I catch something new.
I've seen the film probably 5 times and never noticed this! Awesome
@@geraldinemontes YES! I've seen it five or six or seven times and new clues always seem to pop up.
You also hear the sound of the wire being ripped out of the piano, which his mother will use to cut off her head, shortly before it happens.
I have heard many people point this out. But I wonder if it is just the sound of them walking up the steps and across their wooden porch.
The mom should’ve been nominated for a Oscar
@Lorenzo Smit A Quiet Place did get an Oscar nom (Sound Editing) in the same year.
@Lorenzo Smit they're more biased against online releases that don't get a wide theater release
I absolutely adore Hereditary. Still the best cinema experience I’ve ever had. The scene from the party up until the mothers grieving is the only scene I’ve ever watched that made my skin cold. Phenomenal atmosphere.
Edit: I was also the 666th comment. Very happy about that 😂
This is the scariest film I have seen since I can’t remember.
I came for all the "Toni Collette should have won an Oscar" comments. ...
😒
My mum chased me around like that once because I spilled a pot noodle on the new carpet .
Holy hell youre lucky to be alive....
@@jmlaw8888 *you're
Please tell me what a pot noodle is
My mom when I call her a bitch-
There's something about Ari and this film. I'm closing in to my 40's and I've never been affected by a movie like this before. On a surface level it's the clicks, but now there's some dread I wasn't familiar with before... You're reactions were close to mine when watching the movie, but I was alone. It definitely left a mark on me.
"Is this some sort of cult thing?"
Well, maybe take a close look at some of the faces in the counseling sessions...😈
Got to say, I'm surprised and so pleased at the high ratings. It's a masterpiece.
I watched this movie alone, at night, in a secluded region. Was jumping at shadows for days after. And when I was ill a while later, my fever dreams were all about that nightmare zombie lurking up in the corner of the ceiling.
I wasn’t overly convinced on this, but watching you guys react and seeing how it effected you. as well as me seeing the narrative evolve again really made me realise the genius in the writing on this screenplay
Toni delivered one of the best performances ever It was tragic she didn't get nominated for an Oscar. This was such a great film.
Ah man, I really wished you had kept your reaction to the dinner sequence. It was probably one of the most intense moments in the entire film. Toni Collette was extraordinary in this movie. It's undoubtedly one of the best horror films that I have ever seen. 9/10
That part is SO good.
Is there a person on the planet who didn’t lose the mind at the car scene? 😱
Just when you start attaching to what you think is going to be a main character. Yikes.
It was very predictable. At least for me.
@@deeppurplecat1589 yeah, sure it was. 🤔
@@singbluesilver1973 Yes it was. I guess I've seen a lot more (horror) films than you have!
@@deeppurplecat1589 Just because something is predictable doesn't mean it can't still get to you
One of the best horror movies ever made. So many details and amazing writing and small things you don’t notice until a few times after seeing it it’s just so good and every actor in it is amazing but Toni Colette is on another level. One of the best most underrated actresses of our time
I watched this film and at the end, I thought, "I don't know if I want to see this again." At this point I've seen it five or six times. Seeing this video makes me want to watch it again soon. It probably didn't help that the first time I saw it, I started watching at around 1:00 AM.
Its so depressing.....and I love it.
This movie day me nightmares 3 days in a row after seeing it in theaters.
I never had nightmares, but at the time I was housesitting in a huge old three-storey building and I've never felt so aware of every dark corner.
dang guys
So I read somewhere that the clicking noise is a way which is used by people to communicate with camels and Paimon, the demon here is often portrayed to be sitting on a camel. So that explains why Charlie who was a vessel for Paimon used to make that noise.
12:30 has to be the best reaction from you guys and probably from any reaction I've seen!
BTW, I think it was Aster who said he kind of tried to portray Paimon as a sympathetic character. He didn't ask to be summoned. These people did this to him, put him in a body and a world he didn't understand. Interesting take to make a demon kind of the victim in a way.
Very interesting
Well he's a Demon, probably a fallen angel just like Lucifer
So I saw this for the 1st time in theaters, at the very last showing on a Friday night. Made it back to my tiny studio apartment at 1am, proceeded to turn on every light in my unit-then stalled in my kitchen screwing around on my phone until I was comfortable enough to actually get ready for bed. It’s insane how effective this film is. 🙌🏻
One thing I didn't even notice and a friend pointed out was that during one of the later day to night transition scenes of the house, there are many naked cultists standing around. This movie messed me up so bad after I first saw it.
12:32 ..when that part happened I jumped so fucking hard my shoulder started hurting lol!
You guys have really developed and progressed throughout the coronapocalypse. Quality content, always appreciate your honest reactions. 10/10.
Apocalypse hahahahah 😂😂😂
I feel guys like you should react to "The Lighthouse" with Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe. Let's say it's... An interesting journey.
We are planning to soon 😊
@@CinemaRules It's just mindblowing guys, for good or bad, mindblowing 😂 I see in other comments that they were recommended "The Witch" (A masterpiece for me if you ask) but I also recommend a last one: "The Ritual", directed by David Bruckner, it was a Netflix film...I find it quite interesting, some mixing with horror and norse mythology genres, maybe you'll find it too! Keep the work guys, you're awesome reactors! 😁😁😁
@Sh3p 83 "You're fond of me lobster, ain't ye?" 😂
@@yoshiithelizard2664 I _loved_ The Ritual and its dark spin on Norse mythology!
@@BurningFreesias Yeah, and also, I love the fact that they take the time to build jumpscares and not giving us constantly action, building the ambience and the feelings of "wow, something is wrong here". And also, the design of the creature was... Amazing, creepy, such an incredible work and concept behind.
genuinely had to sleep with the lamp on after watching this the 1st time
So glad you guys finally reviewed Hereditary! Ari Aster is such an amazing Director
This movie actually scarred me for a week. Sleep was not a question
Glad you guys enjoyed it! Yes, Ari Aster is an amazing writer and director. I've seen both Hereditary and Midsommar many times. Hereditary in particular is filled with so many small clues and easter eggs that it is worth multiple views. ALSO - the daughter the whole movie, even in the beginning, was already possessed by PAIMON and awaiting the time of the ritual to switch to the boy's body. Ari Aster himself said this, so it's not a wild fan theory.
Hereditary and Mid Sommer were both great horror films thanks to Ari Aster . For me they Both make a 9.0 such craftsmanship. they both deserve a second watch. what movie are you going to do next?
This is THE one I've been waiting for. I feel like those ratings are justified for a first viewing, but his is one of those films that gets better each time you see it because there is so much foreshadowing and subtleties. I was also disappointed there was no shots of reactions to the dinner scene because that scene was just brilliant and Toni Collette makes it so.
You’ll be able to see our reaction to that scene in the full length movie reaction on our Patreon page 😊
It took me a second time to watch this to see all the things I missed. Love this movie. The part where Joanie is screaming at Peter to "get out" always creeps me out. Basically she's trying to expel his soul from his body so Paimon can enter.
