The movie have a lot of foreshadowing and setups that you don't realize until after you've seen it.
I'm still trying to piece together what the hell went down. If I'm correct *SPOILERS*:

- The grandmother is the leader/queen of this cult that worships this god.
- She offers her bloodline to the god so he can be reincarnated through one of her male family members.
- She tried to perform the ritual on her son, but he killed himself before she could do it and she got too old to have any other children, so she tried to do it to her grandson.
- The cultists fucked up and brought the god back into the little girl's body instead of the son and now they have to fix their mistake by getting the son's soul.
- The son accidentally kills the little sister (which was planned by the cult, maybe? It was a huge coincidence in their convenience.)
- This woman who's part of the grandmother's cult (but we don't know that now) teaches/tricks the mom how to talk to the dead and they bring the little girl's spirit back but also invite the god to terrorize their home.
- And I think the god possess the mom to get the son killed. Either way, he dies and now the little girl's spirit is in him and the cultists crown him/her explain that they're a god and a king of hell, etc.


I still don't quite understand why the mom was possessed near the end and why the women all needed to be decapitated. Definitely have to see it again.
