2019’s Best Horror Film MIDSOMMAR is Playing at The Hi-Pointe in St. Louis

The Hi-Pointe Theater, at 1005 McCausland Ave in St. Louis, is the best place to see movies. Something about its city locale, its nostalgia factor, its retro interior, and the fact that they sell wine by the bottle make me think that any pagan cult in town will be glad to know that MIDSOMMAR is currently playing there. MIDSOMMAR is an absolutely terrifying new film about a couple who travel to Sweden to visit a rural hometown’s fabled mid-summer festival. What begins as an idyllic retreat quickly devolves into an increasingly violent and bizarre competition at the hands of a pagan cult. MIDSOMMAR is the best horror film I’ve seen since THE WITCH and the best film of 2019 so far. I’ve seen it at The Hi-Pointe twice and that’s where I plan on seeing it a third time . Showtimes July 8th through July 11th are 5pm and 8pm. Wednesday night is $5 Night!

I’m not the only one. The critics are digging MIDSOMMAR:

Adam Graham at The Detroit News raves:

“Midsommar” gets it right. This twisted daylit nightmare is a masterpiece of mood, all the more disturbing since it’s set entirely underneath the bright, beating sun. Anyone can be scared of the dark. Ari Aster makes you scared of the light. “

James Perkins at Starlog claims:

“Midsommar is another perfect entry into the growing filmography of Ari Aster who is quickly becoming a true tour-de-force in the world of abnormal horror and can already be considered a modern auteur of the genre. “

and Victoria Alexander at Film Festivals Today wrote:

“A stunning, unexpected nightmare for a group of grad students without a clue. Doesn’t leave much room for sympathy for the victims. It’s a clever film worth seeing twice. “

Don’t miss MIDSOMMAR – at The Hi-Pointe!
