Even two years after watching this, if somebody clicks their tongue I feel a minor twinge of existential dread.

The plot twist about the “curse” that haunts this family is brilliant, the atmosphere is chilling and message of the movie cuts deep

A perfectly executed artistic vision. Gruesome, layered, and deliberate in ways that only become apparent after deeper inspection.

A modern horror classic. Ari Aster creates incredible layered horror that is as painful and thought provoking as it is uncomfortable.
