Pretty sure the dead animal shows up at the end as peter/charlie/paimon heads for the treehouse.

I also just noticed that Charlie’s head is placed on the Paimen statue. It’s awesome

Just watched this on netflix last night and I wanted to comment on this chain:Planet Piss posted:Who did the score for the movie? Because it was just as horrifying as everything else china bot posted:Colin Stetson. If you liked his score, check out New History Warfare, Vol. 2 alf_pogs posted:that whole last piece of triumphant music is incredible Unmature posted:It really elevates that ending from really cool to transcendent Yaws posted:According to wikipedia The track in question https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVnSFj6XQZY Another thing I found on Wikipedia quote:Practicing occultist Carroll "Poke" Runyon suggests that the name ultimately derives from "a Middle Eastern Pagan Goddess", on the grounds that some manuscripts depict Paimon as a young woman riding a camel, and that the name "Paimon" purportedly meant "a tinkling sound" in an unspecified language Also, per China Bot's post, I checked out the first track of that album and I kinda don't want to listen to the rest of it!

“What? It’s a completely neutral view of the accident.” is still the funniest line in the past 12 months of movies

Blast Fantasto posted:“What? It’s a completely neutral view of the accident.” is still the funniest line in the past 12 months of movies The whole movie is amazing but that and "that loving face on your face" are two lines that will randomly pop in my head for no reason. It's such a dark view of grief and the fallout from a tragedy. Nobody grows, nobody becomes a better person, everyone just retreats into themselves and becomes bitter and awful.

What begins as an idyllic retreat quickly devolves into an increasingly violent and bizarre competition at the hands of a pagan cult." "Midsommar is a break-up movie that devolves into something much more sinister. This one, however, has no ties to the supernatural, There is a generous amount of psychedelia, though!"

I just watched it, and holy poo poo that was good. I fell for the misdirect in the advertising, and completely thought they were going to put the grandmother's soul into Charlie. Kind of a Being John Malkovich thing? But wow I'm glad that didn't happen.

Hello friends I just recently watched this movie for the first time. I had an excellent spooky time and I enjoyed a lot of the analysis that smart people have written in here. Gotta say, Peter's sustained shock at the car accident was brilliant, there's no moment of relief for the audience, I stayed on the edge of my seat for who knows how long https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOCEUDgi9wo&t=522s

For me it was the grandma appearing near the beginning and the mom up in the corner of the room near the end. I used to experience sleep paralysis/hallucinations at and it reminded me so much of the type poo poo I'd see at night. I know it's not even officially supposed to be sleep paralysis, but it's the first time I've seen a film capture the general vibe of it. Even the documentary about it from a few years ago was stupid as gently caress. But the silence, being able to clearly make something horrifying out in your own bedroom but also it just being aware enough to question how real it is was captured really well in hereditary. I have no doubt that the director has had similar experiences before.

Hey dead thread bump. Wife and I thought we'd watch it a while back and the creepy dollhouse was perfect for an afternoon movie while the toddler was sleeping. Got to the bird a minute in and shut it off because 'Nope, no thanks'. So when I sat down to finish it today, it started RIGHT at that scene and yeah. I'm pretty sure this gave me a mild anxiety attack (maybe it was the awesome droning background music) because I had to remember to stop clenching my jaw after Charlie hit the pole. That whole bit until the pained wailing is just masterful. Definitely thought it was going to be a mental illness thing so the swerve really got me. What an amazing film I can never ever reccommend.

Groovelord Neato posted:probably alone in this but i found the photo album to be the scariest/creepiest part. Years ago, I saw a surrealist photography exhibit. A lot of it was overtly surreal, but there was a couple from one photographer that was nothing more than ordinary objects in rooms, photographed in black and white. I cannot put my finger on why, but everything about the image was so disconcerting. A pile of furniture and random objects shouldn't have that effect, but these absolutely did. The photo album kind of reminded me of that. There's just something so very off with every photo, but it's so hard to point to what it is.

for me it was how mundane it is. it's a bunch of folks in some rec hall having a little party but it's for an absolutely monstrous purpose. it's far scarier to me than if it had looked like some stereotypical black mass setup.

That's sort of what I was trying to say. It's all mundane and just looks like a slightly goofy party. But there's something off about it that is just out of reach, long before you find out what the deal is. I think I'm going to have to rewatch it.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:The suggestion of something is always going to be more appetizing than the depiction of it. I think this is a statement that really applies well to Hereditary in general. A lot of the movie is structured on the fear and dread of a suggestion of something, like the difficult-to-see shape of the grandmother in the dark.
