The family home as haunted house — the architecture of grief
→ The Shining (1980)
Aster builds Hereditary's house the way Kubrick built the Overlook: the geometry doesn't quite add up, rooms expand and contract with emotional pressure. Both films treat the house as the family's psychology made physical.
