Though unfortunately, they also nailed the shitty narrative most of those movies have too. If you even half way know what these movies are like, you know every beat that's going to come up through the film as you watch it. Oh, this person is going to die here, she's going to do this, she's going to get drugged here, there's going to be a chased through the woods sequence here, amazingly predictable. But like I said, the visuals, are really interesting, so there's that.

I adored it. And I"ve hated most of Ty West's output but this movie is incedible.
