I mean it's pretty obvious in Midsommar with the whole sister killing herself and her parents and the indifference/abuse her friends were putting her through after it especially her bf.... That's like the exact type of backstory one can have to be vulnerable to violent cults...
I think I just soured on the movie because it took so long to do anything scary and when it did I wasn't really shocked at all. So maybe full attention wasn't paid.
It's been a year since I've seen both of them as well.
Basically yeah trauma/rebirth through violence that kinda shit.
And I totally agree on that even as someone who really liked the movie . Not enough kills and when it did happen it was very quick. I expected more after that brutal opening ya know.
Thats the main reason I've been digging 80's horror lol they just go buck wild quite often.

Okay so it's about trauma. Fair enough.
