Midsommar sounds very promising.

and Jack Reynor as a couple on the brink of a breakup after a family tragedy, the film follows those two and a group of friends as they travel to rural Sweden for an annual Midsommar festival. Chaos ensues, of course, and the festival spins into a culty pagan ritual.

insists that it might not give viewers a fright "in the traditional sense" but praises Aster for a refreshing take on the folk-horror genre, and calls it a "smoother ride" thanand it currently sits with a 100 percent fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
