Midsommar

HorrorDramaMystery

Directed by Ari Aster

Several friends travel to Sweden to study as anthropologists a summer festival that is held every ninety years in the remote hometown of one of them. What begins as a dream vacation in a place where the sun never sets, gradually turns into a dark nightmare as the mysterious inhabitants invite them to participate in their disturbing festive activities.

Critics, per Wikipedia

Midsommar grossed $27.5 million in the United States and Canada, and $20.5 million in other territories, for a total worldwide gross of $48 million. In the United States and Canada, the film was projected to gross $8–10 million from 2,707 theaters over its first five days. It made $3 million on its first day, including $1.1 million from Tuesday night previews, which Deadline Hollywood called a "smashing start". It went on to debut to $10.9 million, finishing sixth at the box office; IndieWire said it was "just decent" given its estimated $8 million budget, but the film would likely find success in home media. In its second weekend, the film dropped 44% to $3.7 million, finishing in eighth,…

    Considering the film is pretty explicitly framed as a fairy tale, I don’t think Christian is at all supposed to be seen as a victim in Midsommar. Christian fucking sucks, and his end is morbidly and cruelly cathartic.

    My nana loved horror films, Stephen King works in particular. The last movies I watched with her is when we did a triple feature of Black Phone, Doctor Sleep and Midsommar: Director’s Cut. She loved them all, though I will admit, Midsommar is a funny choice for final film to watch with your grandma

    Possibly unpopular take: Midsommar is a comfort movie for me. I KNOW I KNOW BUT HEAR ME OUT It’s all about how grief and loneliness fuck you up, and my husband died on the summer solstice, so it hits a weird dark spot in me that makes me feel seen.

    Midsommar is a comfort film because it says that even if your boyfriend's a jerk you will always have the loving embrace of an inbred murder cult to fall back on.

    Midsommar (2019) dir. Ari Aster 🎬 This film certainly owes a debt to The Wicker Man ('73), but it goes its own way with a mystery #horror story that serves as a clever allegory for the psychological trauma of a painful break-up. Florence Pugh is amazing. #filmsky #moviesky #cinema

    I remain convinced that MIDSOMMAR is a great film, but I do not believe that it is a great horror film. I think that it's a wicked satire. It's the "Dr. Strangelove" of Folk Horror. It's absurd and it leans into absurdity and dares you to question it. I adore it.

    I enjoy folk horror, and this film had Midsommar vibes in spades! The symbol, while reminiscent of another found footage film that came before, had another meaning. I was left with many questions, which I consider a good thing after seeing a film. It was a difficult watch. 🐾🐾🐾 #FilmSky #FolkHorror

    In Midsommar, allegedly an anti-nazi movie, we see eugenics work. TWICE. The lady who assaulted Chris (yeah he sucks, but so did that) is shown certain she got pregnant as she wished off one encounter, and whenever the community needs a disabled person they just breed one on purpose like it's easy.
