Legendary horror shocker traumatized the main actor and caused him

With Hereditary – The Legacy, Ari Aster created one disturbing mix of horror shocker and intense family drama. The 2018 film was also a challenge for those involved. In the interview, lead actor Alex Wolff talked about how the Hereditary production left him with a kind of post-traumatic stress disorder.

Hereditary star was subsequently burdened by horror filming

In the Vice interview, Wolff spoke about how the experience on the set of Hereditary haunted him long after the horror shocker was completed:

[…] When I started talking about it, all those moments with all the troubling shit I’d been through kind of came flooding back. It kept me up at night, to the point where I… developed emotional masochismto just try to absorb every negative feeling I could draw from. I forced it on myself instead of doing the opposite of what you would normally do in life, which is to sit on the radiator until it starts to turn on burn, and jump up immediately. I had to do the exact opposite of that and absorb the pain and let it burn. […]

In the interview, Wolff says that he was watching the finished horror film Sometimes I couldn’t even remember filming certain scenes. The intense Hereditary production probably left the actor with complete memory gaps.

In the story of Ari Aster’s film, Annie (Toni Collette) loses her mother. The death affects the entire family, which also consists of Annie’s husband Steve (Gabriel Byrne), son Peter (Alex Wolff) and daughter Charlie (Milly Shapiro). In addition to the sadness, a feeling is slowly creeping in supernatural presence into the house that conjures up pure horror.
