We're filling the gap in our delayed Random 10 episode with our second of the commentary format episodes - just in time for spooky season! This movie has come up on the show many times in the past, but it's so rich and deep and brilliant that it made complete sense to break down the whole thing scene by scene. Just in time for Halloween, join us as we watch Hereditary and chat all the way through it.
We also get into...
- Ari Aster and how he's the new generation's Shyamalan
- How Toni Collette just doesn't get the credit she deserves
- Why the scariest parts of this movie aren't even the demon trying to possess them
- Has A24 peaked and gone too mainstream? Is Neon filling that void now?
- Which effects and stunts were practical
- The one scene that Jake could live without
- And most importantly, all the ways that mental trauma is a secret foreshadowing of the possessions and how the demon manifests
