Hereditary (2018)

from The GrindHouse Syndicate: A Horror Movie Podcast · host Chris Lowe and Jordan Lowe

Some films change the way you look at horror forever. This week on the Grindhouse Syndicate we are diving into one of the most important and devastating horror films of the modern era. Ari Aster's 2018 debut masterpiece Hereditary is the kind of film that grabs you by the throat in the first act and never once lets go — and this week we had a lot to say about it. We dig into Aster's extraordinarily crafted screenplay and why the story hits on a level that goes so far beyond conventional horror, and the across the board incredible performances from a cast that commits completely to one of the most emotionally brutal films in recent memory. We talk about that death — you know the one — and why it stands as one of the most jaw dropping and genuinely shocking moments in modern horror history. We also get into the stunning set design and how brilliantly it mirrors the miniatures we see throughout the film, blurring the line between reality and something far more sinister. And we break down all the hints, clues, and foreshadowing layered throughout that make Hereditary one of the most rewatchable horror films ever made — a film that reveals more of itself every single time you watch it. And of course we get into that finale. That absolutely unhinged, five star, unforgettable finale that cements Hereditary as something truly special. So dim the lights and join us this week because the Grindhouse Syndicate is paying tribute to Paimon!Show Links:Shows Official Website: Grindhouse horror podhttps://www.grindhousehorrorpod.com/Shows Official Store:https://www.grindhousehorrorpod.com/store/Patreon: The Grindhouse Syndicate A Horror Movie Podcasthttps://www.patreon.com/TheGrindhouseSyndicateAHorrorMoviePodcastFacebook: @ The Grindhouse syndicate horror podcasthttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61550832364599Instagram: @ Grindhousesyndicate.horror.podhttps://www.instagram.com/grindhousesyndicate.horror.pod/Tik Tok: The Grindhouse Horror Podcast @ Grindhouse.Horror.Pod. https://www.tiktok.com/@grindhouse.horror.podYouTube Page:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXBltuX64Bc2G8Nq1x3FNkQ
