Ari Aster
Beau is Afraid is an aggressive, arguably juvenile film that throws everything at the wall, and truly needs to be seen to be believed.
A decades-spanning portrait of one of the most successful entrepreneurs of all time.
A film that is not enjoyed so much as processed, Midsommar is a rare experience that is not to be missed. That being said, you absolutely cannot skip it.
In Ari Aster’s follow-up to Hereditary, Midsommar, a young woman reluctantly joins her boyfriend on a summer trip where things quickly go awry.
For our latest Staff Inquiry, we are discussing something a bit different: not our favorite films, but our favorite moments from 2018 films.
In this entry of Mental Illness In The Movies, we discuss Hereditary, delving into how the film could be interpreted as an allegory for the fears of neurodivergent families.
Just like his earlier short, Hereditary feels like nothing more than a provocation, updating the parental anxieties of Rosemary’s Baby for the modern era — and adding no substantial allegory that makes it feel any deeper than this.
Horror never goes out of style, and neither does Toni Collette, which makes their pairing in Hereditary so tantalizing.
