Hereditary - Film Discussion

October Halloween Special: Join us to unpack grief, trauma, and generational horror in Ari Aster’s critically acclaimed film - Hereditary Are you someone who keeps thinking about a film long after it's over? Join us at The Frame Lab, a community of curious minds who believe the best films don't end when the credits roll; they begin with the conversation after. October Horror Special: Film Discussion: Hereditary (Ari Aster, 2018) A mother struggling to hold her family together, a house full of secrets, and a legacy nobody exactly asked to inherit. Hereditary starts as a story about grief and slowly reveals something much darker underneath - turning family history into the ultimate horror story. We’ll be diving into themes like: • Grief as horror: Is the supernatural really the source of the terror, or is it the family’s grief? • Generational trauma: How much of ourselves do we inherit from our families? • Fate vs. free will: Are the characters making choices, or are they trapped in a toxic cycle? • Ari Aster’s style: From the meticulously constructed house to the sound design, performances and camera movements, how does he create that mood of dread? • And more! Bring your thoughts, questions, and your honest reactions - what scared you, what disturbed you, and what you couldn’t stop thinking about. Let’s unpack it together. The Frame Lab meets monthly.
