A24 seem to specialize in making horror movies that people have quite
adverse and polarized reactions to. The
Witch, It Comes at Night and most
recently Hereditary have also been
praised by critics, but left a sizeable number of audience members bored to the
core. It’s perhaps because the respective film’s trailers didn’t promise the
scare a minute fest that people were expecting, hence the word of mouth for all
films involved took a dramatically decline following the first week of release (I have one major issue with the trailer for Hereditary but it’s not that it promised a vastly different film).
