My wife and I saw Hereditary when it was released in theaters in 2018. I recall enjoying it – it definitely had a few great shocking and spooky moments. However, I didn’t “get” the ending. It felt like the last 5 minutes took a hard left turn.
We rewatched the movie a week or so ago, and wow is that movie better the second time around. Given that we had a year gap between the first and second viewing, the surprising moments still had a bit of a punch, but we also had a completely new perspective on the characters and their motivations. Great movie.
