    More violent expression in this than any other ozu movie I’ve seen. Cool to see him play with different types of emotions and such. Also visually stunning.

    Hereditary

    ★★★½

    One of my favorite horror movies. Big fan of the "miniature" motif, both in the mother's actual models and the distorted depth of field effects in the wide shots--reminiscent of the The Shining's cinematography (e.g., the Overlook Hotel, Jack looking over the hedge maze). So much effort is put into building tension throughout the movie, it rarely relies on jump scares and when it does the timing is perfect and the reveals are jarring. Also, it's nice to see a 'ghost' movie that actually reveals a coherent lore behind the conjuring rather than just using its scariness as a crutch.

    Too much to be said, the most quotable movie.
