Hereditary Ratings & Reviews
- 𝐀𝐧𝐧𝐚10h agoThat movie was the worst two hours and seven minutes I’ve ever spent :)
- TV watcherFebruary 6, 2026Seriously good supernatural horror film, up there with Sinister 2012!
- Elliot047February 3, 2026I'll say this again and again, Ari Aster has written history with this cinema.
- li5t3nJanuary 29, 2026Very good movie! Even caught myself jumping a little. 😂🏆
- AcmJanuary 28, 2026Overrated and does not deserve the high score
- Allie TranMay 30, 2025This is what I would consider a perfect horror movie. I remember watching this from home and having the crap scared out of me during that *SPOILER* one scene with the mom floating on the ceiling. Not only does it excel in its scariness, but has excellent acting, writing, everything.
- livwomackJanuary 26, 2026i’d say this is one of the best psychological horror films i’ve ever seen. Toni Collette and Alex Wolff were amazing! i understood the ending and if you liked this movie i’d recommend midsommar!!
- TanalienNovember 2, 2024Hereditary is a family drama disguised as a horror film. Given the brutality of these experiences and how they are captured, Ari Aster either turned his personal experience into a screen story, imagined such grievous trauma in his mind, or combined both truth and fiction. Hereditary is very often a hard watch, but it always feels honest.
- Don the Darth Knight CORLEONENovember 2, 2025Definitely one of the best Modern Horror movies...
- CoougeSeptember 24, 2025Good horror movie. Nothing funny about it, just scary and creepy.
- tellumAugust 18, 2025I did not enjoy this as much as other horror fans, for me it was very plodding and the ending I didn’t care for. But there is some very disturbing imagery that is burned in my brain, and relatable realistic terror as well as supernatural terror. For bigger fans of the genre this is still a good movie.
- Nila AtkinsJanuary 21, 2026It, could have been better. It needed more scare. Than head trip. Have seen better.
- Evan MayJuly 30, 2025Harrowing. The true terrors are in the first half. The second half tells a story to make sense of them. If only generational demons were so simple. The explanation is inexplicable. The result is multitonal, a partly comical fever dream dressed in visual discomfort. Yet the dread lingers past the runtime. Every scene holds attention. But the real artists were Steve Newburn and his team creating all those miniatures.
- Richard GobinJanuary 9, 2026Now this film is a modern classic! The whole atmosphere creeped me out. From a tragic family and the evil that connects them through passing down from another generation as the film title describes is one of my top horror movies.
- Lindsay DunlapJanuary 6, 2026weird and didn't hold my attention at all. I had to restart it twice.
