Hereditary (Ari Aster, June 8, 2018) Movie • Page 15

yeah, for sure. it was also just a more enjoyable experience because I knew what was going to happen so I was able to pick up on all of the little nuances I missed the first time

 

Man, I went to see Andrew McMahon tonight and the windows that everyone popped up in ended up being unintentionally creepy because of this movie. Such a wholesome show but I kept almost jumping every time.

 

This absolutely reminded me of The House of the Devil. I love that movie.



I must have not clicked the quote thing right, but someone in this thread mentioned that the statue in the treehouse used Charlie's head? Unless I'm blind, I didn't notice it was her head at all.

Regardless, I loved it. The whole thing had a dream/nightmare feel to it and hopefully won't freak me out too bad when going to bed!

 

it was definitely her head

 

I wish I could see a picture of it now because I specifically looked right at it and what's in my mind looks nothing at all like her head, haha

 

Oh yeah, her head on the side of the road reminded me of a scene from High Tension, which still gives me the chills thinking about it.

 

Triple post but I am SO glad they didn't have a cop out ending having to do with sleepwalking or her brother's schizophrenia or something equally lame.

 

If this movie ended with Peter looking the camera dead on and clicking his tongue, I would have walked out in anger.

 

I was SO expecting that to happen.

 

I keep thinking about the shot towards the end when shit is about to hit the fan. Its the exterior of the house during the day time and it immediately cuts to night time and alllll those people are standing outside the house. It almost looks like a miniature scene its so fucking creepy.

 

Saw this again tonight, crowd was horrible

 

I remember this scene clearly except I somehow didn’t see the people.

 

I’m starting to believe everyone who likes Blumhouse films like to go to these movies and laugh. You wouldn’t laugh in the middle of a drama flick at genuine moments, but the only reason people think they feel entitled to laugh or scoff at this film is because it’s a horror flick. Man, when a I saw The Witch, I had to tell one guy in the front to shut up because he kept laughing at the flick.

 

Didn’t realize I said flick a lot in the last post until after I saw it.

 

Definitely did not catch all the people, but I know the day/night shot you're talking about.

Reason #41 to see this again!

 

I've never had to deal with a bad audience. The only complaint was if one guy had his cell open and the light flashing from the seat. But where I go now has the recliner seats and you can barely see people in the rows below you. I went Sunday afternoon and it was almost full. Sat next to a guy was mentioning something to his friend a few times but I didn't mind but he gave some genuine shocked gasped reactions. And like others have mentioned, few people made the clicking sounds towards the end of the movie.

 

same and I paid close attention. guess another watch is in order

 

I don't mind people chuckling or laughing when it's clear they're doing it because they're uncomfortable. I like the vibe when people are audibly groaning or nervously laughing because they're anxiety ridden.

The only time I had a bad theater experience was an asshole talking on his phone during WALL-E, even after a lot of us asked him to stop. Even the theater workers talked to him and he kept answering his phone.

 

Tallahassee, Florida has some of the biggest pieces of shit in the world in terms of movie going audiences; people walking around the whole time, talking very loudly, bright-ass cell phone screens, and that's pretty much every time too

 

Lucky you. I’ve had a dozen of bad experiences with people. I can tolerate people commenting to each other every 10-15 minutes or so, but I go to a theatre that’s one of the most popular theatres in Canada and there’s a lot of shit disturbers that go there.

Also my tolerance for talkers has decreased more and more. I told two teens to shut up because they talked for the first 30 minutes of Thor Ragnorok. Beyond that, having people gasp in Infinity War annoyed the shit out of me.

 

The worst theater experience of my LIFE was the first time I saw The Witch. We went Friday on opening weekend and it was just abysmal. I am an anxious, non-confrontational person and by the time some dude yelled "IS THIS OVER YET?" when the kids are locked in with Black Phillip, even I had to yell back a "shut up!" Just walk out and get a refund if you're so unimpressed!

I truly don't know what the fuck it is that makes people think that they can talk through horror movies they don't like! It doesn't happen for any other genre of movie. But for some reason, "I am not enjoying this horror movie" translates to "I am now allowed to give my own personal RiffTrax."

 

I podcasted with my friend who has a show called The Analysis, if anyone wants to listen. SPOILER-HEAVY!

 

Second time watching was more stressful leading up to that act 1 part... It was tons of fun watching my mom stress the hell out during the entire film though.

 

How do you guys not notice all the (naked) people in the wide shot of the house at the end? There were so many of them - at least 10, I think way more than what were upstairs in the tree house.

 

I honestly have no idea. There are a few things people are saying they saw or that were obvious, but I didn't notice them at all.
