    /* ---- VIDEO INFORMATION ---- */
    So Hereditary is one of those movies that blew me away when I first watched it back in 2018.
    It's by far my favourite Ari Aster film and though I've already done a big breakdown on it I thought that I'd revisit the movie to celebrate the release of Beau Is Afraid. You see back when I made that first video on it in 2020 I was still learning the ropes and since then we've bought new equipment, hired editors and just tried to up our game in terms of the level that we pick movies apart.
    I've never been that happy with the video because of how much I missed in that initial watch through and thus I've decided to return once more to the classic to unearth all of the hidden things within it. Throughout this video we'll be going through every little creepy detail, it's ending and also why I love the movie so much.

    Also, as the narrator pointed out the hats on the wall, relating them to the three decapitated heads that Paimon carries, you’ll notice that after Charlie loses her head and her funeral is over, there are only TWO remaining hats on the wall, and the one that was orange (like Charlie’s sweatshirt) is no longer there, her head having been “collected” by Paimon. The other two heads will be that of the grandmother, once her corpse has been dug up and mutilated, and Annie, who severs her own head later while possessed.

    Peter's "friends" put that Dittany of Grete in the bowls he was smoking. That's why he was having such a coughing fit, and such a negative reaction to it. They were trying to make it easier for him to astral project, and get Paimon in his body.

      Yes. His "friends" were all in the cult of Paimon. So, they were instructed to mix the Dittany of Grete in with the w**d that Peter was smoking. Just like that woman put the Dittany of Crete in the mom's tea; and, the grandma put the Dittany of Crete in the baby's milk.

I was a successful Hollywood guy in the 90s mostly...playing teen dramas and sitcoms and film...also, the explosion of male designers made me a lot of money while I was still a kid in highschool becoming the Drakkar model. I photographed well and my profile made a lot of money and photos are used to this day. I recently lost my Mum and 2 of my siblings were hard at work being stupid enough to send me eviction notices from the house I bought my mother...during covid, in a leg cast and a catheter needing surgery while the world was dying and shut down.

    I think the model house scenes also show how Annie is detached from her home life. She can't understand it from within and maybe feels powerless to control anything, so she creates these models where things make sense and she can give an order to the chaos. Of course, it's just an artifact that doesn't really address and can't solve the problem.

    The mothers name is literally 'Anne Graham' aka, anagram!

    I actually heard that Charlie would sleep in the treehouse when it was freezing trying to kill herself either because she subconsciously knew what was happening or it was paiman trying to get out of her body. Since Paiman planned the Light pole beheading though this theory would say it's Charlie. Just a bit of a theory though

      @@Steak0Ums yeah that "That's okay" could either be Paimon saying it's okay because something like Pneumonia cannot kill him, or it's Charlie wishing to get something like Pneumonia that would hopefully kill her. And same thing with the nuts with the brownies. Was that Charlie trying to kill herself, or Paimon going along with the plan? We know the pole has the sigil on it, but is that a predetermined thing, or was Paimon like "okay, so in a week we're gonna go to a party that is going to have brownies with nuts in it, so put my sigil on this light pole." The girl who made the brownies could also be a part of the cult as well. This is why Hereditary is one of the best movies in the past decade or so. There's so much to discuss and more to find out

    He wasn't possessed by Charlie, Charlie was possessed by Paimon and that's why she clicked. It's Paimon's tick. Charlie's grandmother had Charlie possessed as a young child, because she was vulnerable (because of her age) and by that time Peter was too emotionally developed to be easily possessed. But Paimon needed a male host, because he's not able to fully possess a female host (as we can see because sometimes Charlie's own, albeit very underdeveloped, personality shone through) so Peter had to be emotionally broken down to the point where he was vulnerable for possession. He had to lose his entire family, in a short period of time. The whole cult that their grandmother was in, was there to bring a vessel for Paimon, because Paimon was giving them wealth and prosperity in exchange for a host.

    Most traumatizing horror I’ve ever seen. Love all the subtext one can draw from it. In addition to all you’ve mentioned, I add divorce. A family being slowly ripped apart one person at a time by forces beyond one’s control. All the demons of the families past come down on the last remaining son and the resignation and hopelessness laid bare on Alex Wolff’s face at the end makes me feel sick to my stomach. The idea that hope (of family) can indeed die, nothing is certain and you may be left with nothing upon reaching adulthood… nothing left of yourself but an empty vessel, devoid of what used to be or could have been. Heartachingly devastating.

    What I loved about Hereditary was that it wasn’t your typical horror movie w/the obvious cat & mouse scenario of the victim trying to escape & survive from what ever bad is after them. It stands out mainly because the director doesn’t spoon feed us what’s going on but instead puts us into the shoes of the actor in a POV kind of way to where we experience the same horror when the characters do. Instead of knowing before hand what the characters don’t know, we get to feel as if we’re in the movie by discovering clues & go into this journey just as blind with them. it’s like your on the same journey with the protagonist not knowing exactly what is after them or what’s going to happen until it’s finally revealed which was such an effective way Ari Aster decided to present this film. That’s what made Hereditary more frightening in the way the story was told to us. Ari really does try to avoid using the same horror tropes Hollywood follows with the unnecessary repetitive jump scares that serve no purpose that a sudden shock. The Jump scares in Hereditary were effective because they were used at the correct moments and also served other purposes beyond just a cheap quick shock. I personally was terrified with how they amplified normal sounds or background noise to where it creates an uncomfortable unnerving reaction as your watching the scene play out like when Anne bangs her head repeatedly at the attic door chasing peter omg I could go on

    Dude.
    This is the BEST deep dive video I think I’ve ever seen. I absolutely loved this movie - even though it gave me nightmares and as a 33 year old I had to sleep at my parents house after we watched it - but I didn’t catch on to HALF the things you pointed out in this video! And I’ve seen the movie SEVERAL times!!
    Incredible.

    I really don’t think anything in this movie is random or coincidental… so everything you said on Bridget, the number 202, the baseball caps, the cult, etc. makes a lot of sense! Great video and fascinating (terrifying) film!!!

    Excellent breakdown. There is so much going on in this movie that it's hard to catch everything. I love this movie, but after watching it once, it took a little over a full year for me to watch it again. After watching this and Midsommer back to back, I'm convinced that Aster is a genius. I can't wait to see Beau is Afraid.

    0:49 The reason for that name isn't necessarily aesthetic, although I'm sure that played a part. In older forms of English they used a character from the futhorc alphabet which was called Wynn, but those characters were phased out in favor of Latin characters. Since Latin didn't natively have a character for the W sound, they began using VV or UU for it, which eventually became the "Double U" or "Double V" in some other regions (namely France).
