*“Donavan has been here for SIX months, and I’ve been here for SEVEN years.”
-Linda Liddle*
I wish i didn’t know the plot and that this was a Raimi movie because it seems so normal till the plane scene where the tone shifts to straight up horror, that would’ve been a blast not knowing it was gonna happen, but it still rocks even knowing it was coming.
This movie is like a sick and twisted survival RomCom with horror elements sprinkled in till the end when it’s just a straight up slasher brawl. The actual ending kinda just pumps the break and it’s a year later which felt a little off but besides that the pacing is amazing. I loved the dynamic flip leading to the corruption of power on Linda creating a bigger monster than Dylan Obriens character, and we see Dylan’s character become a bigger douche who can become a beast a do some terrible things. Just two people who become horrible when given the chance just like The Shining (1980).
Rachel McAdams is great and unhinged playing a genuine psychopath brilliantly, but Dylan Obrien is sublime the Rat scene especially is absolutely immaculate I didn’t know he was capable of pulling off such a performance since I haven’t seen him in much.
This films so funny because why are they trying to convince me Rachel McAdams is ugly, I don’t care what the makeup department does she’ll always be gorgeous.
My biggest complaint is the cgi it looks off at times like the boar to be specific but overall I have almost no complaints great film with great direction, had an absolute blast. Just like every Raimi film I’ve seen this rocks.
