So in reading the reviews of this movie, I feel it is getting judged quite unfairly. It was acted beautifully, directed beautifully, and the story is quite engaging. That is, assuming you go in expecting it to be a beautifully acted, directed, and written drama about the disturbing struggles of a mother and family, and the puzzling nature of those struggles.
Seems that plenty of spoilers have already been revealed, but I just wanted to say that you should indeed see this movie if you go in expecting that type of movie. I agree with other reviewers who were disappointed in the horror aspect of the film, but to be honest I never went in expecting it to be a horror movie. I can see how some of the marketing may give that impression, and it really isn't supposed to be a horrific film in my opinion. Dramatic and mysterious yes, but as a fan of horror I wouldn't look to Here After to scratch that sort of itch.
I think many who would love this movie and who, like my wife, are not horror fans should see it. She loved it as well. I give the film a solid 9, but its perplexing and IMO somewhat off-base marketing, well not a 9.
