Midsommar also had naked elders. Ari Aster is leveling the playing field for generational on-screen nudity.
I went into Hereditary only knowing its reputation of being one of the best and scariest recent horror movies. I thought the plot was going one way, and then there was a BIG surprise after a half hour, and everything reset. I liked the story overall, and I liked the transition of drama to horror. The end section had some pretty scary imagery and moments. The slow burn was sometimes a little too slow, and I'd feel my attention stray a bit. It might also be because I didn't like any of the characters. I don't think I necessarily need to like them, but it might have contributed to the occasional focus drift.
