Ohoh that's interesting !Midsommar Will Be ‘a Wizard of Oz for Perverts,’ Says Director Ari Aster
https://deadline.com/2019/04/midsommar- ... 202587868/Ari Aster’s follow-up movie to Hereditary, Midsommar from A24, is moving up from its Aug. 9 release date to the Independence Day frame of July 3, which has been a prime counter-programming launch pad for horror pics, i.e. last year’s The First Purge ($69.4M) and 2016’s The Purge: Election Year ($79.2M).
Without spoiling anything, I align with the latter. I'm not sure if he wrote it before Hereditary or if he rushed through it, but I was not impressed. People keep saying it's crazier and twisted, and I know exactly why they're saying it, but I don't foresee it happening unless your specific tastes are affected by certain things in horror more. I think there's a possibility for him to turn out a compelling project out of this for sure [a weak script does not make or break a film] but the line he's riding here is way harder for someone to pull off imo, especially for a new filmmaker.Ruth wrote: ↑May 8th, 2019, 6:15 pm^I’m really curious and excited for this mainly because I think Aster’s talent as director can’t have been a one hit wonder. The script’s another thing though. I’ve been hearing a lot of polarizing reactions on this, people either think it’s sooooooo much crazier and twisted than hereditary, or they think it’s... bad. So here’s that.
