“Hereditary”, starring Toni Collette is unlike any horror film you have ever seen. The actress didn’t even initially want to take the role of Annie, a grieving mother battling serious demons, because the material was so intense.

“I had said to my agents, I don’t want to do anything heavy,” she explained. “I felt like I was kind of accumulating a bit of emotional gunk, and I just wanted to do some comedies and some lighter work for a while. And then they sent me ‘Hereditary.’”

Collette learned valuable lessons about self-care while dealing with the film’s heavy themes. She also wants audiences to watch the film with an open mind and understand that it’s really about family and the terrifying process of grief.

“I think it’s almost a relief and a release for people to see grieving in such an open, honest, vivid way,” she stated. “But also, it’s exciting to watch something so original. Really, if you know to expect the unexpected, you will have the time of your life because, even if you think you know [where] it’s going, it’s going to surprise you. And it’s so rare that that happens, even for people who love horror films."
