Netflix just added 'Hereditary,' one of the most unsettling horror movies I've ever seen

Toni Collette as Annie Graham in Hereditary.

With the high number of horror movies I watch on the regular, it's rare that one truly scares me these days, and rarer still when it haunts my brain long after the credits roll. But "Hereditary" has been haunting my dreams since I first saw it in theaters back in 2018, and now this must-watch movie for horror fans has at long last found a streaming home on Netflix.

Before "Everything Everywhere All at Once," "Hereditary" was A24's biggest blockbuster hit, putting the acclaimed studio on the mainstream map after grossing $82 million at the box office. "Hereditary" is a modern horror classic with the cult appeal of hallmarks of the genre like "Carrie" and "The Exorcist." Director Ari Aster's passion for horror rings clear in every movie he writes, with "Hereditary" being his first true success before he went on to create another horror masterpiece, "Midsommar."
