At 21:48, she pulls that herb out of her mouth - when she's going through her mom's things and learns the truth, there's a bottle called "Dittany Of Crete" in the belongings. That is a black herb that in the occult world, is often used in possession rituals. We see a pic of grandma feeding baby Charlie a milk bottle filled with black herbs, and Peter's friend with the long hair under the bleachers who passed him the weed is seen in the treehouse at the end, so that guy was probably lacing Peter's weed, as well.
i love how much is under the surface in this movie. like the best part is that the whole town is secretly satanists and it's ridiculous if you think about it, but in the atmosphere of this movie it just works?
My biggest question of the movie is why Peter was being sent to school???? If my son experienced that kind of trauma, he's going to inpatient treatment or partial hospitalization treatment. And the dad asking about SAT prep courses; sir eff them SATs!!! Take him to the lady so he can lie on a couch and explain what happened to him!
Toni Collette brings it all into this movie.
One of the 5 best female acting performances in a horror movie all-time as far as I’m concerned.
At the dinner scene, Annie sees Peter sneering all the time because it’s Paimon. Just like when Peter has a regular face in class but his reflection is snarky/sneering.
Wait…. CHILLS… never noticed
@@salliejones6002 I can’t take credit for that. Another TH-cam channel pointed it out. I think Found Flix. But once I knew it…yes, CHILLS. Seriously yuck
Paimon isn’t in anyone during the dinner scene.
He enters Annie next after daddy spontaneously combusts.
Then he enters Peter when he jumps out the window after Annie dies.
So no.
Paimon is just lurking during the dinner scene, causing the added friction during the dinner confrontation.
You can always tell when Paimon enters someone because the movie shows the orb when he enters Annie and when he leaves Annie and enters Peter to become the ultimate Paimon form.
Watch the director’s commentary bc he points out really cool plot important details.
Also when Peter sees the reflection in the glass at school smiling at him. . .
Peter is self aware and HORRIFIED. . so paimon isn’t in Peter yet.. just taunting him and breaking his mind.
When Paimon takes over, the original human mind is gone and the human body of the victim becomes a mere vessel getting him closer to his ultimate goal, Peter.
So Peter freaking out in school is still very much Peter.
But Peter answers "I don't sneer at you" and Annie says he "doesn't need to" sneer, so this is probably untrue.
Toni was robbed of an Oscar. Completely. She was phenomenal in this movie.
Before I even begin watching this video, I would like to say; my condolences 😂 this movie is one of the only ones I cannot watch all the way through. I’m a huge horror movie person, and every time I watch one, I can easily sleep through the night and not be bothered. But not with this one. Hereditary hits different
I feel you! Ari Aster knows how to make us uncomfortable and Toni Collette is incredible.
Annie pls stop squelching we’re begging you 😭
The whole cast should have take the oscars
Hereditary is one of the greatest psychological horror movies of all time. The story, performance's, musical score, direction, visuals, astomphere, tension, and cinematography was absolutely and positivity horrifying and terrifying.😱😰 It also gives a insightful and articulate representation of trauma and abuse. It was decent. To this day I still watch it and I consider it a classic. It never gets old.😍👍💯😎
Technically it’s not really psychological horror; it’s possession, witches and demonic horror, but ok I guess 🤷🏼♀️🤣
This film and Luca Guadagnino's reimagining of Suspiria both came out in 2018 and are two of my favorite films. It's rare to find ONE truly great horror film in a year, let alone two.
Maybe it wasn't your thing but A Quiet Place also came out that year!
I love you guys so much, your sassy remarks crack me up every time. Thank you for brightening my days!
You are so welcome Natalie!!! Thank you for your kind words! 🥰🎃☕️
At the end, I wonder if Paimon is thinking: "Why is everyone else naked?"😅
I’m so happy y’all reacted to this! Hereditary is my favorite horror film. I just think it’s psychological horror at it’s best. Ari Aster was able to create something that truly got under my skin, and that’s not an easy task for a lifelong horror fan! Toni Collette is the queen, and more than deserved an Oscar for this role. 🙌❤️❤️
You guys are so hilarious I died laughing through this whole thing. You guys know how to brighten my crappy day. I just have to watch a reaction video of yours. Keep ‘em coming. Love that you guys react to horror which is my favorite genre.
Thank you, Tyler!!! 🥰 we love that our content is what you enjoy! That makes us so happy! 🎃☕️💕
Paimon was originally meant to posses Annie's dad or brother, but both men killed themselves before he could do so. Presumably, they both realised what Annie's mom was trying to do, but were written off as mentally ill.
The cult were stuck with what to do, so Annie's mom bullied her into having children. Annie on some level knows any children she has will be doomed (hence why she tried to have a miscarriage and tried to kill them when sleepwalking) and so kept Peter away but caved to letting Charlie know her grandma. As a result, Charlie was possesed as a baby by Paimon.
TL;DR Charlie is Paimon.
But Paimon doesn't want to be a girl. So the witches created this convolted plan to put Paimon in Peter, which succeeds at the end.
The tragedy with Annie is:
1. She genuinely loves her kids, but wasn't raised in a loving home and struggles to be a good parent. Her violent behaviour (trying to kill her kids) was her trying to 'save them' quite sincerely.
2. She said at the start that she 'is blamed'. And she is. But really she was just like a doll in a doll house controlled by higher forces.
Saw it in theaters, EVERYONE SCREAMED.. core memory
MOMMY!
I’ve been a Toni Collette fan since ‘98 when she was in "Velvet Goldmine", a film loosely based on the life and music of my IDOL David Bowie.
If you enjoy Toni’s work, please watch "Muriel’s Wedding" ('94), I think you guys would love it! It has an ABBA heavy soundtrack, lol.
*And of course, she was amazing in "The Sixth Sense" in ‘99.
aw I’m so happy you two made a video for today… I lost my mom around this time last year & I’ve been struggling lately but I know you two will definitely bring a smile to my face with this reaction. ❤😊
Also, I’ve always wondered why didn’t he call the ambulance, then have someone check and see if anyone at the party had an epipen.
The lack of acknowledgment of the horror genre by awards is such trash. Toni deserved the oscar, the emmy, the grammy, and the tony for this movie.
I get that the movie wouldn't work if things were different but Annie definitely shouldn't have forced Charlie to go to that party and she absolutely should have had Charlie carry an epi-pen EVERYWHERE she went if her allergies are that bad. I hate that the blame gets put on Peter. He's just a kid, too.
Excellent movie, still holds up
The greatest uncomfortable dinner scene in the history of cinema. Period.
Unforgettable!!!
Charlie: Milly Shapiro
Peter: Alex Wolff
Annie: Toni Colette
Steve: Gabriel Bryne
I took a nap Chile and woke up to the mom screaming her ass off 😂😂😂🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️😊
there's just something so deeply unsettling about this film that's hard to describe in words. it feels like ice shards punching through my ribcage
This may seem like such a small thing but I really appreciate how honest y’all are about your reactions. Like, “Yes of course we’ve already seen this”. Too many reaction channels I’ve seen where it’s “First time watching” but it’s super obvious that it’s not.
They be like “FIRST TIME LISTENING TO A MICHAEL JACKSON SONG” like girl HOW!? Stop it. 😂😂😂😂 Love y’all ❤❤❤
to yall's question about charlie eating the cake without checking it: i feel like the beginning where her dad makes the comment about pneumonia and she says that's okay showed that charlie was passively suicidal. whatever her experience was being inundated with paimon from birth made her unconcerned with her own life, it's pretty likely she even hoped to die since that was a key part of the ritual.
Happy Mothers Day 😅
"She had one seance with Phony Joney and now she thinks she's Theresa Cupputo" LMFAO best line ❤
In the scene where the paint bottle falls over, if you pay attention, she doesn't do it. There's another bright light that comes in through the window and literally knocks it over to fall onto Joanie's number and make Annie look at it. This poor family was being manipulated the entire time and never knew it until probably the very last moment for Peter
Yassss!!!! Thanks for the mothers day vid! My mom died 4 years ago on st patricks day and i just feel weird today. Her bday and deathiversary are so much more emotional for me. Today i just feel hollow and its weird i cant call her. Thanks for posting today. I needed to have a good kiki with friends.
This movie is psychological horror perfection cause TRUE HORROR is tragedy, trauma. The sound design, saxophone by Colin Stetson, cymbals, ALL of it is just utterly brilliant. The only thing I hated truly was....ahem....The Academy idiots who did not at least nominate Toni Collette for her performance 😅 She should have WON an Oscar if you'd ask me, and at least a nominee for the incredibly raw portrayal of grief. It's also quite nice and fun to "tick" people off with Charlie's special noise 😂 I do it quite often when I''m stressed and eh, It really helps.
Anyone who's seen this once needs to see it twice it it's almost better the second time. Awesome stream. Started watching with last of us.
I never know how to feel about the end of Charlie's career because yes she's a child but she would have died from the allergic reaction anyway so the tree was probably less painful and faster than the nut allergy. I'm also just always so angry at the mom, I only ever blame her, i can't blame the child because she's a child and they don't take allergies as seriously and her mom didn't give her an EpiPen before she left or even asked about it and I can't blame the son because his sister is gone and he just moved on instinct because he didn't know what else to do
I thought she might have lived, I guess though idk how far the hospital was from that point. the epipen thing was super weird to me bc they're clearly a wealthy family and even though the Mom sucks in so many ways, I never got the feeling that she was 100% neglectful. just like.... 50% lol. but I think it's just one of many things in the movie that -had- to happen, for the ritual to occur etc.
@@specificsoup well her throat was swelling, and it seemed like they were living in my type of town, where the nearest hospital is literally towns away, so I'm not sure if she would have and it did seem predestined bc of the mark that was on that specific tree
Your sympathies are vastly misplaced. Here’s why: CHARLIE DID NOT DIE BY THE POLE OR NUT ALLERGY. PAIMON LOST HIS HUMAN BODY AND WAS WITHOUT A VESSEL. CHARLIE WAS LONG GONE BY THEN, HAVING BEEN (horrifyingly) EXPELLED AS A BABY AND HER BODY POSSESSED BY PAIMON (see, it’s all even more effed up than you thought isn’t it? 😂). Charlie never really existed. It was Paimon that pole took the head off of. And It would have been soooo much better for everyone if Paimon had stayed that way. Cause Annie didn’t actually bring Charlie back through during the seance, she brought PAIMON through who had become Charlie.
The only child to feel sorry for in this film is Peter.
@@rebeccahopkins9522 if what you say is true, Charlie was still an innocent child that was done wrong, so I'm still going to feel bad for the baby and child that could have been. Also what you say makes others things make sense, they said the first body was purified so maybe the head removal had to happen
omgggg perfect way to honor all mothers with this mother!! i was so damn gagged by the car scene after the party…. 💀
You should watch “Rosemary’s Baby”! Have a fun and peaceful Sunday! ☀️🫖🧋
The TRAUWMA. The trauwmaaawwwww
Great watch-along. I, like other commenters, really appreciate your honesty about having seen it once. Your reactions for a rewatch are just as good as for a first watch.
Where this movie is concerned, I personally found my second watch to be scarier than the first because "Hereditary" is all about dread---relentless and ever-growing dread that builds and builds and does not stop until the final frame of the film. Watching this film is a traumatizing experience. Like Her Majesty Queen of Horror Jamie Lee says, it's a film about trauma, but even worse---it is trauma. I think it stands alone among horror films for expressing cosmic levels of sadness and despair.
U guys didn’t catch this but Charlie was Paimon the whole time. Her soul was separated from her body at birth because she was a host for Paimon. She had to be decapitated for Paimon to leave her body and go into Peter. So her death was planned.
So I watched a VERY Long and impressively extensive hereditary explainer vid by Novum. It’s … wow… but one thing he mentioned is there was confusion about the Peter hitting his head on the desk scene. It was a soft prop desk. And the actor said he has the ability to like dislocate his jaw on command basically so he did do that so his face looked messed up, but he didn’t break anything or bloody himself up from that scene besides his legs a little bit (from them hitting the desk underneath). A lot of people were saying he “actually broke his nose”
More importantly… everyone was in the cult lmao
Most of the background characters were actively plotting and part of it. The person you see thru the window when Peters at school seeing the blue light towards the end is his teacher 😅
I'm on my third watch of this video Wes and Chey, love you guys. I love your commentary in the midst of these crazy scenes.
I'm only going through this again because I love you two. 😰
Loved your guys reactions! Have you two seen Midsommar?
My babies! I love y'all so much. Keep slaying, long time supporter here 😍
The squelching got me too. Although this was not my favorites Ari Astor movie, I thoroughly enjoyed rewatching it with you! I did love the shot in the beginning that starts as a miniature then transitions to current day.
When you said I too have cried at a red light and then cut to the Taylor lyrics I literally cackled out loud, y’all are too much! ❤
The first time I realized it was her head slamming and not her knocking on the attic door, I CRRRIIIIEDD laughing
I'm surprised you didn't go for Mother!
On the other hand, I recommend this horror gem: A Dark Song, almost a thematic reflection of Hereditary, in that it shows the journey of a grieving mother, but with a happier ending.
Great reaction, as always!
So, I read a Reddit comment a while back about how Peter was smiling in the reflection at school. What if that is the sneer Annie is talking about before she blows up at him at dinner?
No lol I don’t think he would be smiling at her like that right after Charlie died. That was paimon, which was why you saw that light before you saw that reflection.
my ultimate mother's day present coming from my favorite reactors :3
That face on your face line was always funny to me lol that whole dinner scene is hilarious lol
I loved watching this with you!
NOT THE ANT AQUARIUM!!! 😂😂😂
take a shot every time someone says "trauma"
My dream notification: Petty Pumpkins react to Midsommar. Pretty please! 🤗🤗
"She would have a head... and a living body". 😂😂😂
I love this movie. One of the most disturbing and scary horror films I've ever seen. Loved the mom and the son's performances especially
my favorite movie and my favorite reaction channel omg
Absolute masterpiece of the genre right there
❤ the clip of Queen👸 Taylor Swift's "Death by a Thousand Cuts"
oh how I've been waiting for THIS to appear in my frontpage.
Everytime you see that bluish glint or flash of light, that's Paimon's influence or power manipulating people or things to ensure that the ritual is done properly
you can actually hear the cult members running upstairs when the family got back from the funeral and was about to enter the house at the beginning
WHAT?! Timestamp?!
@@salliejones6002 4:50 it’s the moment when they opened the house door to enter but the video here doesn’t show it
@@JiiWoon EEEEEEEEKKK
Toni Collette no even got nomination for oscar nor golden globe is insaaaaneeee
Annie never dug up the bodies the people in the grandmas cult did
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY INDEED
Hereditary is one of my all-time favorites but I'm surprised you guys didn't react to the movie "MA" with Octavia Spencer
Great movie ❤ Toni Collette always on point
16:13 there wayyy should have been an EpiPen in the car. Not bringing an EpiPen to a funeral? That's normal. But if your child requires an EpiPen, there's no way it's not in the car or her backpack as she heads off to some sort of eating event or party with her older brother. Specially when they ain't in a city
I’m about to watch but I just have to say your Carol Aird shirt is fucking iconic
Thank you!!! We love her 😍😍
Yooo why y’all roast Joanie so hard the whole time 😭😂☠️ I was trying to stifle so many cackles.
And not the side eye edits 😂😂😂😂
"Why didn't she call me" hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
OMG THE QVEEN HERBY ❤❤❤
I lost my mother last year so Mother’s Day is not a good day for me… 😢
My deepest condolences so sorry for your loss.
:(
She’s in a much better place than we are that’s for sure 🙏🫶
26:31 NOT THIS 🤣
This is just one of those movies that will stick your sanity into blender, turns it off while laughing maniacally...
The Ultimate Mother Movie! Toni Collete proves that Oscars have no real value if they're not even nominating her.
PS: Why is it not possible to save this video to a playlist? I save all your videos to a playlist of film reactions from my fave TH-camrs and just play them as a series, but this one won't let me save... UPD: Did you guys magic the "save" button into existence? Yay, thank you! Now I can re-watch this fabulous reaction video any time!
This is the only way I will rewatch this fuckin movie lmao.Thank yall for this one!
The movie Mother! ❤
Might be my favorite edit of all time 44:36
The chalkboard joan uses to talk to her "grandson" isn't actually anything to do with a "grandson". You can see that she's literally just bought it when Annie meets her in the carpark of that store.
not Chey reading out all the witchy words everytime they came on screen💀 it was giving evil dead and chey is ‘Eric’
I have watched this movie several times, and the only scene I cannot watch is where the grandmother’s standing in the corner staring… even here, I couldn’t do it!!
25:30 my internal dialogue to my cats 😂🤣😂
I know of other ways to quench that thirst Che, lol go get u some fool ❤
The Mom is correct with “I a the one blamed.” In the group session. She wanted Charlie to go to the party, and the Mom didn’t Check it make sure she had her epipen.
The dead grandma is giving "Slap Happy"
Johhny: "Im tired of digging these coal mines, grandpa!"
Grandpa: *"WELL THAT'S TOO DAMN BAAAADDD!"*
I hope they follow up with Evil Dead Rise, it's be nice thing for the month of may and mothers day
The movie disturbed me to the core
EARLY GANG
Multiple cult members were definitely involved in taking the mom out of the grave, definitely wasn’t Annie
Also the dad sat on the info that someone “desecrated” the grave which I always was like … he didn’t wanna concern Annie but he should have given thought to how weird her mother was and said something and maybe they could have prevented all this lmaoooo
Love Toni but she made me hate my own mother after this movie
Edit: am still pissed about her Oscar snub that year
Was hoping this was a first reaction but even still was a good time. Love yall ❤
Edit: Hereditary is the less effective Mother!. Loved both but mother disturbed me more and I didn't hate the ending as I did in Hereditary but both had stellar performances
I was prepared to be shocked they had never seen it 😂
@@kbaylor123 petty do more reactions to things they've seen than not but I still adore them anyway. Most reactors wait or say before hand if they see in theaters lol but man need some new ones here. So I go to zzavid, nicksaysboo, alanda, Katwatcheshorror for genuine new reactions lol I come here for the fun
9:53 lmao
WHEN IS THE EVIL DEAD RISE REACTION VIDEO COMING OUT 😂😂😂❤❤❤ (take your time tho)
What about the first time y’all watched it?
first viewer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they had already seen this movie???
Hmm so, you asked (major spoiler alerts inbound): Hereditary is both typical Ari Aster fare -- Ari asks what if [demons, creepy European death/fertility cults/witches/Prometheus and Proteus had a "chat"] was real? How would it go? And then makes a movie of it [Hereditary, Midsommar/The Witch/The Lighthouse]. And Ari is brilliant. -- and it's also a movie about hereditary (duh), intergenerational trauma. (Trauma, from the word root "traum" -- to dream). It's both, at the same time. The trauma story is plain: father starved himself to death (do you know hard... how AWFUL that is? There's a reason that Buddhist monks self-immolate; I shit you not, that is both more painful and yet somehow easier than starving yourself to death), the brother hanged himself, the mother "wouldn't get her hooks out." But the other story is simply this: FAFO. Fuck around and find out. Now, I'm an atheist, and don't believe in the supernatural (also, react to Supernatural, pretty please?) but it can be fun to scare yourself with "what if" tales. So: "troubled family with typical troubled family issues, plus one FUCKED UP little girl gets in trouble. Nobody takes anything seriously, and a boy's stupid highschool arrogance leads to his sister's death. Hell descends. WHAT THEY DON'T KNOW IS: grammy was in a cult; they worshipped King Paimon, one of the eight Kings of Hell. All of this is ripped stttttraight from Aleister Crowley and (I believe) the Lesser Key of Solomon. Even those nonsense words (saxonby, dagondy, etc.) are just the (make believe) words of summoning. They're basically just a spell. *pant pant pant* But wait, there's more...
King Paimon is... well, He is a King of Hell after all, and they are not to be meddled with. He apparently has some fascination with decapitation (not sure if this is from the "lore" or not... I actually have the Lesser Key in my Kindle library, but Crowley is just such a... tedious writer, that I can't get past that to the interesting stuff), his "color" is blue (notice the recurring use of the color blue?), and He (oops) manifests with flashes of blue light. Also look at the sigil upon the scepter he is carrying in the picture, and the oddly contorted hand gesture Peter makes when he... well, smashes his own face.
ANYHOO, Grammy got the whole damned family into this cult simply because they were here family and she basically offered them as "pawns" for Paimon and his cult -- in the thoughts (read the heartfelt note from Gam Gam) that it would serve her well (from the noblest intentions is the road to Hell paved...). It... went about as well as can be expected and Hell Boy said "hey, you promised me souls. You promised me a 'healthy male host.' Sure, I manifested in this body -- Charlie (hint, hint, the head cutting off etc.) -- but it was WRONG, somehow. It wasn't MALE. So... literally... off with her head and on to the next host.
SO: the movie is about horrific mental health issues (I ... resemble that remark) and the horrible toll they take on a family ("hell descends"). I come from a family history of... addiction, suicide, violence, and just batshit insanity. I know this stuff. Of course, I have never "summoned a King of Hell" because (another spoiler alert) they don't exist and (to quote Granny from Squidbillies): "that's just dumb."
BUT: the bottom line is, if devils and demons are real, for nonexistent GOD'S SAKE: DON'T FUCK AROUND WITH THEM. Because it just... never ends well.
Seriously, I love you guys. You should watch -- and DO -- Supernatural. You have a fan and a subscriber; I only wish I was gay. Sadly, I am not 😞My sister was!... before she... committed suicide 😞Does that make me... an "honorary gay?" 🤣(sorry: this hyper-autistic man JUST discovered emoji... I may be overusing them).
Brav-fucking-oh. Best reaction to Hereditary I've watched yet. The best combination of real reaction -- like... er... the one cute little towhead (sigh. Bad with names) reacting to the nose trauma. I never even considered that was a THING... now I may have to put "trigger warnings" in shit when I talk about nose-picking?? THANKS, OBAMA!
Also, I'm thinking of creating my own vlog -- which I will never monetize because... well... because reasons. Bravo, two adorable gay guys, for having the balls I don't have to expose yourself to ... the HORRIBLE people on this cesspool like on a daily basis. I'm a cisgender, hetero white male who -- while not rich -- is moderately well to do. A "wealthy male landowner." In other words, who this society was fucking BUILT to serve... and I'm too gutless to do that! Bravo. But I'm thinking of naming it something dumb like "Hi, I'm Tom" or "Tom's World" or "Tom's Hall of Two Truths" (my fascination with comparative religions -- all of which I don't just believe but KNOW somehow are just make believe; just "grown up fairy tales" -- shows keenly in the fact that I even RECOGNIZE garbage like saxonby dagondy etc.
LAND THE PLANE, SCULLY!
I want a "hook" at the beginning of each episode, and I was thinking something like this: "[Calm, welcoming voice] Hi! I'm Tom. Welcome to my world. [pause for a sec, then earnestly, regretfully, and a little sadly] I am **SO** sorry for what's about to happen to you." Thoughts? Too hokey by far, or just gimmicky enough, and then like John Popper said... the hook brings you back?
I believe Robert Eggers did The Witch and The Lighthouse.
