Her children, Peter and Charlie, handle their pain differently, but a series of terrifying events brings increasing fear and sadness. The film skillfully builds tension through a slow-moving story combined with shocking moments that show the family’s spiral into chaos.

It examines how loss affects us and the frightening idea that our fates may be connected to those of our ancestors.
Hereditary has received critical praise and has become a significant film in modern Horror, striking a chord with audiences for its emotional impact and disturbing look at family relationships.
