Hereditary is available to stream on popular platforms like HBO Max and Hulu, where subscribers can watch it at no extra cost. For viewers with no subscription to these platforms, though, the movie can be found on Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. Available in both HD and 4K, Hereditary, starring Toni Collette, continues to captivate audiences years after its release. 

The film follows the Graham family, who begin to uncover disturbing secrets after the death of their secretive grandmother. What starts as a story about grief quickly turns into something far darker, as strange and terrifying events envelope the clan. Toni Collette gives a powerful performance as a mother struggling to hold everything together, making Hereditary a deeply emotional and genuinely unsettling horror film. Hereditary’s acclaim, moreover, is reflected in what it achieved for its production house.

The horror masterpiece held that record until the release of Everything Everywhere All at Once in 2022. Praised for its unsettling atmosphere, the film has, over the years, gained recognition as one of the best horror movies of the 21st century and maintains an impressive 90 percent approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
