Critics Are Raving About the Horror-Thriller 'Hereditary'

Critics Are Raving About the Horror-Thriller 'Hereditary' Ari Aster’s directorial debut stars Toni Collette, Alex Wolff and Gabriel Byrne as The Grahams — a dysfunctional family that learns terrifying secrets about their ancestry. “At the end of the day, Hereditary mostly succeeds at being what it set out to be - namely, one of the more flat-out messed up horror films in recent memory.” – SANDY SCHAEFER, Screen Rant “The film’s subtle shocks and realistic drama combine to create a dreamlike atmosphere, drenched in psychological horror, which builds and builds to a climax that you won’t forget anytime soon…” – WILLIAM BIBBIANI, IGN “In the end, horror and supernatural fans will certainly get their thrills, but it's the psychic damage on the screen that will make the film hard to forget.” – DAVID LEWIS, ‘San Francisco Chronicle’ “Hereditary is so refreshing in part because it invents its own scare vocabulary.” – INKOO KANG, Slate “…Hereditary is basically a brilliant machine for scaring us, and Collette’s operatic, hypnotic performance seals the deal every second she’s on the screen…” – PETER BRADSHAW, ‘The Guardian’ ‘Hereditary’ opens everywhere Friday, June 8.
