Since his directorial debut with Hereditary, Ari Aster has been terrifying audiences. Which is what makes his new film, Eddington, such a departure. Aster and humor isn’t something that go hand in hand but it will be interesting for audiences.
Aster is, as previously stated, known for horror and while movies like Midsommar have a more layered approach to its storytelling, it is still a horror movie at its core. With Eddington, Aster is bringing his unique take on a dark comedy and a modern western to life. With praise out of Cannes, many are shocked by how he’s managed to bring the “modern” western to life.
