Midsommar (2019)
Directed by Ari Aster this film stars Florence Pugh and Jack Reynor. A young woman grieving the murder/suicide of her family travels with her boyfriend and his friends to a remote midsummer festival in Sweden.
You can definitely see that this film owes a huge amount to The Wicker Man (1973), delving into the same brand of folk horror somewhat closely. I am not sure the film has the depth some claim however it is more than creepy enough to keep your attention through out. Good performances and messed up visuals really carry this film.
4/5
