The grandma was the head of a cult worshipping Paimon and became his "bride." She had wanted to put Paimon into her own son but he killed himself. She couldn't get close to Peter as a kid, so she put Paimon into Charlie as a baby. But Paimon prefers male bodies, so she put a plan into action so that could be fulfilled even after her own death. Everything from Charlie's death to Peter's possession was orchestrated by the cult. They were, as the opening scene suggested, merely toys manipulated in a doll house.

As a survivor of trauma, I always thought Peter's response made a lot of sense. I'm not saying it was at all rational or the right thing to do. But after a trauma sometimes you just completely shut down. You can't find words. You can't move. You can't think. I don't think he made an intellectual choice to drive home and not say anything. I think he was definitely in shock.

We are all capable of sitting down and judging what would be the most appropriate or rational reaction or behavior in an extreme situation, when we are not experiencing it ourselves. That is why it is important to try to reason things from the eyes of the person who is experiencing it and not from our place and say what we would do when we have the freedom to think about it carefully when that person at the moment does not have it.

I panicked for like two seconds and then started crying when I got to the parking lot of my job. I was in shock. Luckily I was able to get back to the car before being charged with a hit and run. I can’t imagine actually causing damage to a human being. I think the shock would be 10x worse

It wasn’t even a mistake, it was a freak accident. Peter is just as much a victim in that situation as anyone else. She was his sister, she was his family too, he was never a bad kid, and his mother blaming him immediately had me fuming at her. The gall you have to have, to speak to your own child like that, especially when they’re also hurting and clearly know you’re resentful. No child, which is what Peter is, should have to shoulder that burden.

I don't know why everyone who watches this movie blames Peter for his sister's death when it was the mom, Annie, who made her adolescent daughter go to a high school party when she clearly did not want to, didn't make sure she was carrying her EpiPen with her, and basically took zero responsibility for what happened. The mom is the one ultimately responsible for the safety of her children, not her son. They already showed the audience how absent-minded her mom was (actually both parents) when Charlie wasn't carrying her EpiPen with her at the funeral for the grandma, so to then blame Peter for the negligence and bad decisions of the parents again is totally unfair. Peter is a high school kid. He shouldn't have been be put in that situation in the first place. If your daughter has that severe of an allergy, why aren't you making sure your child has the one thing that will save their life with them AT ALL TIMES? These parents, particularly Annie, are horrible.

If you do get to Midsommar, I highly, HIGHLY suggest the directors cut, it gives a much more intimate look at the lead’s relationship. Everyone back me up on the directors cut

I second this vote for the Director's Cut. Midsommar is spiritual sequel, in that either film tackles the effects of trauma and grief on the psyche. I prefer Midsommar's sunlit horrors by way of The Wizard of Oz. It contains equally haunting / fucked up imagery and a devastating lead performance EQUALLY deserving of an Oscar. It will challenge your faculties the same way Hereditary did BUT it is also a brilliant, beautiful (and brutal) movie deserving of your time (and like Hereditary, rewards rewatches with revealing layers and meanings and Easter eggs). Just give yourself time to recover before you brave it. But you ARE strong enough to weather the experience. Edit: Just in case I made Midsommar sound too daunting, I should add that it's overall vibe isn't AS dour. It's shot through with humor / and it's darkness is lessened by occasional levity. It's most effective well...effect...is a sense of claustrophobia as the characters' inevitable fates close in around them, apparent to the audience but not as much to them.

I never recommend watching the director's cut on the first viewing. First, you're not seeing what everybody else saw when the movie was released, and 2. I always find that I enjoy the theatrical versions better - art needs editing and the cuts were usually wise ones that improved the storytelling or pacing. After you've seen it and digested it, go back and watch the DC.

Interesting facts about Hereditary (2018) (1) To make the chalkboard write on itself, the special effects team put a magnet in the chalk and put a magnet on the other side of the chalkboard to make the chalk move--it was very difficult to get a small magnet inside the chalk and make it write smoothly. Ironically, this same technique was used in the film version of Matilda, and Milly Shapiro, who plays Charlie, starred as Matilda in the Broadway musical. (2) Toni Collette had told her agent that she didn't want to do any more heavy, dark films and only wanted to do comedies, but she loved the "Hereditary" script so much she couldn't turn it down. (3) Ari Aster requested that Alex Wolff and Milly Shapiro go out to eat in character a few times, and they would sit for up to three hours in silence while Milly wouldn't speak and Alex would try to get her to talk. (4) In Peter's first scene at school, the words "Escaping Fate" is on the chalkboard with the teacher discussing it. This is a reference to Halloween (1978), where the main character discusses the same thing in class. Appropriately, this movie was released on the same day as the trailer for Halloween (2018).

I can imagine Alex and Milly going out to eat in character. They order chicken (or duck). Milly eats the head, and Alex stuffs the body cavity with weed and smokes it.

There’s some conversation going on over Alanda’s reaction to Peter going straight to bed, but her phrasing is a figure of speech. Alanda doesn’t literally think of Peter as a psychopath, nor was she diagnosing him or writing him off. In the rest of Alanda’s reaction, you’ll notice she finds Peter very sympathetic. She encourages Peter to advocate for himself when his mother Annie confronts him over dinner, points out that the traumatic Paint Thinner Incident is why Peter must have a hard time communicating with his mother at all, and expresses shock again and again that Peter’s family continues to send him to school instead of getting him professional help and allowing him to rest. Thanks for another fantastic reaction, Alanda! I’m so glad we have such a sensible and compassionate movie buddy to watch horror movies with.

I don't think a lot of ppl understand the part after he accidently killed hes sister. He was in "SHOCK" shock does many different things to different people. Unless you have been in a position of complete and utter shock of a very bad incident. It's hard to understand. Some people react fast, some people do not even react at all. It all depends on the situation and the person.

Beyond "horrific" - I've seen this film described as "full-on emotional terrorism" and that feels pretty accurate. Other horror films "cross lines" by showing extreme gore/torture, while this film "crosses lines" by making you feel like you're living through a nightmarish family tragedy.
@andrewmoss36819 ай бұрын
A great reaction to what I think is one of the best horror movies in years. Now a few bits of medieval lore to help settle your minds. The lore in that book you read about King Paimon is 100% accurate. It is actually the translated text from medieval Demonology. & if you read the text it states he can bend & break reality as he is the King of mischief. So floating Mom's & bodies... EASY for him. Same for making his followers rich & powerful. King Paimon could turn paper, or anything really, into gold. But there are a couple of details not mentioned in the book that were changed for the movie. 1. King Paimon is actually 1 of 9 Kings of Hell. Not 8. It was changed to 8 for ritualistic effect. So by real lore you wouldn't face Northeast to summon him. 2. The whole beheading thing is also merely for movie & ritualistic effect. That is no part of any ritual of his summoning. The reason that it was used is from the VERY few bits of artwork we have. & you see them in the movie. 1 picture has 3 heads hanging from Paimon's belt. I hope that helps everyone sleep a little better. Hope everyone is having a brilliant week & much love to all from here in the UK

The scene with Peter in shock was so accurate. I've unfortunately seen a few different people in shock, and myself was in shock twice, and that was exactly how some people react. They shut down; their body is trying to react to something their brain won't let them comprehend. That's how I reacted the first time I went into shock. The second time, many years later, involved much more screaming on my part.

The one thing I don’t like is that a lot of people say that Peter should’ve told someone or he’s acting like a psychopath, he’s not, he’s traumatized and is probably feeling guilty asf. I’ve never gone through that state of trauma but ik that people can act exactly like that

My theory/what I’ve heard about this movie: So Grandma breastfed Charlie so that she could put the demon/hell god Paimon into Charlie’s body(because as the mom says, she never let the Grandma anywhere near Peter as a child so she couldn’t do it to him). But Paimon i suppose identifies as a man so he needed a male body to be comfortable and strong or whatever. So this whole movie, the Grandmas cult friends are tricking the Mom into opening the family up to…idk, demon stuff I guess. And eventually, they are able to break down Peters mental stability enough to where Paimon can enter his body. So Charlie was Paimon from the start, but I think Paimon was “reborn” into Charlie so he didn’t have any knowledge of past life or who he was. He was raised to be Charlie. So basically Grandma wanted wealth so she summoned Paimon into her family at some point and kept trying to give him a vessel. Because the mention of the families past decapitations tells me Charlie wasn’t the first in the family to be possessed by Paimon. Anyway, thanks for reading if you did, I just wanted to type this and be a know it all lol Also correct me where I’m wrong and give me other theories. I typed this very fast lol
