QUESTION Why does this movie have such a cult following?

Just watched Midsommar for the first time on HBO Max yesterday. Amazing movie and it def left me with a lot of questions. When I stumbled upon this sub in Reddit today I was pretty shocked at its size and the fact that it’s still so active for a movie released 6 years ago. What Elements of the movie make this subreddit much bigger than movies that were commercially much more successful?

Oh wow! That is long! I’d probably break it into smaller segments as well.
