Midsommar
Dir. Ari Aster
A24
From the mind that delivered the twisted darkness of Hereditary, comes a new terror, just in time for Halloween, in the form the brilliant and horrifying Midsommar. Written and directed by Ari Aster, Midsommar follows the story of a group of college friends attending a seasonal festival in a remote Swedish village. While the festivities begin innocently, things quickly detour into a frightening and psychedelic descent into darkness as the friends begin to realize that the festival is radically different from what it appeared to be. Featuring some of the most gnarly, terrifying imagery to be brought to the screen, Midsommar is not one to be missed. (Simon Weedn)
