Hereditary

Ari Aster's 2018 debut weaponized grief into the most disturbing family drama ever filmed, with Toni Collette delivering a performance that should have won the Oscar she was never nominated for. The telephone pole scene delivers the single most shocking moment in 21st-century horror, a quiet tragedy that detonates the entire narrative with 90% audience shock ratings. Hereditary proves familial trauma can be more terrifying than any supernatural entity.
