It is said that there is a horror film that will go down in history this year, and both professional filmmakers and audiences will applaud it. The film is "Hereditary Doom".

The film tells the story of an old man from a cult organization who, in order to achieve a certain benefit, pulls all his family members into the organization and then sacrifices for the organization.

The details of the film are in place, and the logic is basically flawless. More importantly, the film is actually different from the previous horror films by using so-called supernatural ghosts and even bloody cruelty to create the atmosphere-perhaps after watching the film, there are not many impressive scenes, but the whole story makes the film more interesting. People have endless aftertastes and can't be calm for a long time.

Whether it is the heroine who is lost in sleepwalking and reality, cults and life, or the heroine husband who has been integrating a family that has been torn apart, or the powerless son who cannot escape the fate of the family from beginning to end, or the short-lived who was bound by the curse at birth Daughter... After all, everyone can't get rid of the "destiny" that the old man in the family has already arranged.

The so-called hereditary bad luck is more from a physiological point of view and is a "natural disaster"; while family bad luck is more from the perspective of blood and clan, and is a "man-made disaster". The film actually shows more "man-made disasters". The contradictions and tensions between people in the family are all "man-made disasters". Especially in the dinner scene in the film, it can be said that the psychological state of everyone in the family after losing their daughter is inspired and displayed, such as sadness, helplessness, disappointment, distrust...

In fact, around our lives, some poor people are actually more or less troubled by family misfortune. When you are born in a criminal family, it is difficult to get rid of bad habits; when you live in a family that believes in pyramid selling cults, you are often forced to be involved in the abyss; when you are surrounded by alcoholism, drug trafficking, smuggling and fighting, you have to arm yourself with violence... …

Although everyone in the film has tried to fight and get rid of the bad luck left to them by the family, they have found it to be in vain. This is the real horror of the film, and it is also worth savoring.
