Aster himself describes his new film as “a dark break-up movie that becomes a horror film.”
Indie distributor A24 is sticking with Aster for the film which will be titled Midsommar, a Kill List-style film that starts out as one genre and ends up firmly wedged in horror.
Separating Hereditary from the endless stream of other horror films – other than actually being scary – was its cast (Toni Collette, Gabriel Byrne, Alex Wolff and Ann Dowd).
Midsommar currently has no release date but you can bet we’ll tell you when it’s announced.
