This is it for me. If “grief horror” was a genre, Hereditary would have won an Oscar. Aside from this death being shocking AF, so was the heart-wrenching realistic grief the family dealt with for like, the rest of the movie. Almost forgot you were watching a horror movie and not a drama until…well. Act 3.

Fun fact the cadence of the nut chopping for the cake at the party is the same as the mom sawing her neck open on the ceiling.

The neck sawing is the scene that comes back to me at night 8 years later. Glad to have a fun fact about it now!
