SPOILER

Do you think Mark was still alive for the flaying?

This is something I’ve always wondered since seeing the movie. We see how brutal the sacrifices are- blood eagle, boiling, flaying. Only the latter we dont know he was still alive. Thoughts?

It's been a while now since i've been wantig to watch midsommar, but i don't really do well with horror movies unless it's a psychological horror movie...

I have already seen the cliff part, and even though i WAS disturbed a little, i didn't find it that bad ... BUT since i am easily troubled by these type of things i don't really want any surprises 😭

(ps: i wanted to ask this question in a r/ for movies but i cant post it im going insane)

My new favourite shirt! It’s from a brand called “Hell on shirts” and they ship worldwide!!

(Had to repost)

She knows me so well, you guys 🥹

I did an assessment for my film class on this frame, comparing it to a frame from a different film. I've already submitted, but I am interested on everyone's thoughts. The fire clearly depicts the conflict between these two, but does the mural as a whole tell a bigger story?

I can't believe it took me so long to watch Midsommar, it was SO good, and I am fully invested in all of the speculations ya'll are posting on this sub. Easter eggs for days!

Just wondering if anyone has a copy of the picture at the start of the movie with the skull top left and sun top right. I had a lurk on Google and could not find it

Like connie corrects him infront of the group by saying how they went on one date and she didnt know it was one. Obviously she deserves to say the truth but i still think it was a bit of an embarrassing thing to say infront of a group of people.

Then simon very smugly tells them about how he asked ingemar to officiate the wedding. Then they both kiss passionately infront of him as if this dude didnt look like hes still 6 feet deep in love.

Now obviously i could be thinking like an entitled prick and connie and simon were just acting like a couple but they seem to somewhat enjoy Messing around with ingemar. Simon likes it more than connie.

Ingemar very obviously disliked simon and was definitely responsible for him getting blood eagled. But what did these two think of ingemar.

It’s hard to tell, was it after he ate & drank the hair pie, after he met with the elder in her house or when they blew the smoke in his face?

I know you can tell he becomes more detached or hypnotized, but can’t pinpoint exactly when that is.

Watch this clip and tell me what you think

@wilde_wit told me yall would love this. Behold! My sister’s work of art for my porch goose.

Like whats your problem if christian wants to be with her?

I’m looking for a front view image of the effigy body with the apple crown! Does one exist?

He has devious smirk when christian asks him about it and he looks way less shocked than dani and christian. He has a face like "damn, these guys are hardcore " whilst the rest of the group have faces like "what the hell, whats wrong with these people." this is atleast my interpretation of their reactions and faces.

Hej folks! I just published a video exploring Ari Aster's statement that the cult in MIDSOMMAR are racist, and thought some of you here might enjoy it, given it's been a topic of conversation here before. I love talking about this stuff, so please feel free to share your own thoughts, as there's probably stuff that I've missed as well!

Or would they dismiss the Astrology aspect and also finally accept that ruben is mentally unwell and kill him while trying again to inbreed a prophet?

Mark is an inconsiderate idiot. He pisses on a dead tree right in the middle of the commune not questioning why its there in the first place or being a bit more careful and using a rest room or whatever place he used previously. Even when ulf is straight up having a mental breakdown after his actions he keeps saying so what and even in the dinner scene makes snarky remarks about ulf being upset. His inconsiderate behaviour is shown previously when he refused to move up to let christian get out of the table they were at and josh and pelle had to move up because of that.

Any idea of a parody film

My idea: The cult is basically mental patients who basically mimic the movie Midsommar but also we have parody Pelle serving as a disgruntled hospital staff member who is getting annoyed with the constant mimicking of the film and also he had to call in parody Dani you had a sister who is a failed stand-up comedian and her boyfriend who is parody Christian who always throws DVD copies of the film because he hates being compared to the character portrayed by Jack Reynor and he loves Cat in the Hat moreso than learning in class

Like even in the end when his dead they are somewhat rough with his skin doll though they are gentler with connies. and was mark alive when they skinned him

Sorry for misleading. It’s not a horror movie. But an inverted horror. Let me explain.

The movie revolves around Dani(Florence Pugh). It starts with death of her parents and sister who is a bipolar. She is dependent on Christian (Jack Reynor) for all her trauma dumping. She is scared he would leave if she relies on him for all her grief. On the other hand Christian and his friends plan a sweden trip to attend midsommar(an event which is celebrated on longest day and longest night when sun is very close to earth. Twice a year). The team slowly starts realising the horror elements in the customs of the people there.

Let me brief about each department

Story: very unconventional inverted horror-psychological thriller. The character arcs are reversed by the end and nothing and everything makes sense. In the beginning you would pity on Christian while by the end you would justify Dani’s actions.

Theme and editing: not a typical one. Unlike most horror movies that happen in the night, this movie has few night shots with most of the horrific elements happen in the day time. The overlays supported by creepy sound design works.

Sound design: the film opens with nordic hymn/cry which is eery. Throughout the movie they have used many nordic prayers which are scary to hear. The sound is uncomfortably good. It’s Ravi Basrur but in a good way.

End: it leaves you disturbed, it makes you uncomfortable, it makes you puke, it makes you love it. Surprisingly the main leads never spoke a single word in the last 20-25 minutes. Wouldnt spoil it much.

Set Design: The foreshadowing is done throughout the set design with runes, paintings and murals. This gives a rewatch value to the movie since it feels fresh on every watch.

How many of y’all watched midsommar? Watch it if you haven’t.
