Correct. It would be my cup of tea. You know me :) It’s on my to watch list. It’s a A24 movie and the few A24 movies I’ve seen has been pretty good

9/10 is very high ranking though. If/when I get the chance to watch it, I can tell you my thoughts, if anyone is interested

You must share them here for us all! I don't like horror usually but I loved shit like Parasite where it turned into that and, of course, I've liked A24's stuff so far as well. I'll be on the lookout for more reviews.

I do love me some (read a lot) of horror movies. Haven’t seen any that’s stand out in a long time and I’m not a fan of the type like Get Out etc. My last fav would have to be Train to Busan but that’s sad, because that was long ago. I’ve seen many horrors since but nothing to really chat about excitedly, if that makes sense

We are A24 crew here as well. Reading your other comments I think we appreciate different aspects of the horror genre. You will probably rate it lower than I did. Train to Busan was very good but I wouldn’t call it a scary movie.

Hereditary is probably top 3 all time scariest movies for me. So that’s the sort of headspace I’m coming from.

Yeah I’ve watched all types of horror but you’re right we do enjoy different horror. I watched hereditary and thought it was alright. Personally wouldn’t rate it very high. And yeah train to Busan wasn’t scary but it is loosely classified as horror. So I use the terminology on it. Can’t remember the last time I was scary by any horror tbh. Maybe when I was a kid

@Goddess_Amaterasu @useless_modern_god

Been a long time horror fan

Gotta say that Hereditary is one of the best. Saw it at the movies and if the viewing gods are with you at the time it just rocks
