Ari Aster's (2019) is a "daylight horror" masterpiece that subverts traditional genre tropes by trading dark corridors for blinding Swedish sunshine. The film follows Dani (Florence Pugh), a young woman reeling from a devastating family tragedy, as she joins her emotionally distant boyfriend and his friends on a trip to a remote Swedish commune for a once-in-90-years midsummer festival. What starts as a picturesque retreat quickly devolves into a surreal, ritualistic nightmare as the group becomes entangled in the cult’s increasingly violent pagan practices.
