Hereditary (Ari Aster, 2018), 9pm, Film4
A film that turns its bloody nose up at the slow crescendo of chills typically found in horror movies in favour of a string of gamechanging shocks. Ari “Midsommar” Aster’s debut feature centres on the always brilliant Toni Collette as Annie, an artist who creates intricate miniature houses filled with disturbing, autobiographical detail. She’s married to Steve (Gabriel Byrne) and has two kids – and it’s the children who play key roles in the unfolding terrors. Fears about motherhood, unprocessed trauma and inherited illness combine in an unforgettable experience. Simon Wardell
