Hello, my name is Shauna, and I am here with Olivia.
And this is your PCJ Pop for the week.
This week I'm gonna talk about what I consider
to be the scariest movie of all time.
Hereditary from 2018.
This movie scared the shit out of me,
and it's one of those things that stays with you.
- Yeah.
- Like I watched this when it came out in 2018,
and everyone smiled just popping to my head,
and I'd be like, "Oh yeah, that movie was messed up."
(laughing)
Oh yeah, geez.
Anytime I hear somebody has a peanut allergy,
I'm like, "Oh God, yeah, oh, yeah."
It's a good one.
I went on a date with a guy named Payman,
and I just kept calling him a principal.
- No way.
- His name was Payman.
That was his actual name.
- Yeah.
- So Hereditary is a supernatural psychological horror film
by writer director Aerie Astor,
as about the Graham family who unravel terrifying secrets
about their ancestry after the death of the matriarch Ellen.
It stars Tony Colette, who is absolutely incredible
in this movie, and I don't know how she didn't get an Oscar.
Alex Wolf, who is absolutely incredible as well,
Millie Shapiro, and Dowd and Gabriel Bern.
This movie is just so unsettling and terrifying,
like really scary, and the lingering shots
on the trauma that this family goes through,
and just the guttural screams of when they experience
the things around them, Tony Colette's like,
"I am your mother, speech."
- Yeah.
- This is so good.
- And poor Alex Wolf's character has to go through
ship that no teenager should,
and carry just this enormous guilt on his shoulders,
as well as a possible possession in his house.
So this movie is just, I can say,
I mean, I don't wanna spoil it like I usually do.
It's an age 24 film.
I know, and I'm trying so hard not to spoil anything.
I just put little tidbits, peanut allergy, clicking sounds.
Yeah, there you go.
- Yeah, Hereditary, I think, is one of the scariest films
I've ever seen.
I think it just is one of those things
that sticks with you for months, for years later,
and I think it's a classic horror film for the ages.
So I am going to pop Hereditary.
You can watch it on Netflix.
I'm sure there's other places that you can find it,
Amazon Prime and such, but Netflix is the way to go,
I believe, so that is gonna do it for your PCJ Pop.
