Midsommar
Can I get a second round of applause for Ari Aster’s Midsommar, everybody! As previously mentioned, Ari Aster is a mastermind when it comes to horror films. Midsommar is a true thriller with its small but frightening Easter eggs hidden in the eeriest ways. Mentioned early on in the film, the protagonist, Dani has a rather complicated relationship with her boyfriend, Christian which doesn’t get resolved.
Early on in the film, Dani and Christian are seen fighting in her apartment, and in that scene, a large painting of a little girl in a crown touching heads with a bear sits on the wall. If you happened to notice this painting at the beginning of the film, you would know how perfectly it foreshadows what happens later on, as Dani is named May Queen and Christian is put into a real bear costume and then sacrificed in the name of the cult.
