Fast-paced and unpredictable!

This movie was so entertaining and fast-paced. There was barely any set-up at all. It got right into things and kept the intensity going with every scene. I didn’t see the twists and reveals coming. Some of them were a little insane, but I embraced them and just went with it, which made this so much fun to watch!

Killer premise with a strong female lead.

I absolutely loved the premise of this movie. In a lot of ways, it reminded me of a mix between Ready or Not and Fresh. Our female lead was incredible and it was very easy to root for her. She was inventive and bad-ass!

I loved our villain as well and there were plenty of other characters with lots of potential too.

The Cons:

Some unanswered questions…

Since we got several twists thrown our way, I was left with a lot of unanswered questions by the time we got to the end. There was just a lot jam-packed into this movie and I think a few things could have been fleshed out more.

So am I in or out?

When sisters, Nina and Gemma are vacationing in Hawaii with their friends, they get invited to an exclusive party on a private island that seems too good to be true. There’s only one rulethey can’t miss their ferry at midnight or they’ll have to wait until morning to leave the island. Only they didn’t realize that breaking this rule meant they would be hunted down on the island one by one.

Who will make it off the island alive?

Draws you in right away…

As soon as I pressed play on this one I was completely hooked. I connected with the character and thought the setup was interesting and relevant in today’s world. As the true intention of the movie became apparent, I was completely glued to the screen and I couldn’t look away…even though things transformed into something beyond horrifying.

Dark humor and charm.

I personally loved the use of dark humor and charm in this one. There were a lot of really disturbing moments so this helped balance things out in a good way. The film had an American Psycho sort of vibe with some sprinkles of You as well.

Truly terrifying…

This film really scared me in a lot of ways because it’s something that could actually happen and it makes you really think about the world we live in and the strangers we come across each and every day. As a warning, this film is not for those with a weak stomach. There were a lot of cringe-worthy moments that made me lose my own appetite.

And yet I still couldn’t look away…

The Cons:

Some unanswered questions…

There were some plot-holes in this one and I was left with a few questions after everything was said and done. That being said, there were plenty of twists and reveals that were very well done.

So am I in or out?

Stomach-turning horror balanced out with charm and dark humor. Hulu is really delivering with its latest horror-thriller films. This film was really unique and terrifying with a fantastic cast. More please!

DON’T TAKE THE JOB…

It was only supposed to be temporary…but when Olivia Crewe accepts a new position that seems too good to be true, she soon discovers that twelve other girls previously had the same job as her. Only none of them lasted for more than thirty days. No notice. Nothing…right before they mysteriously disappeared without a trace.
