I can’t quite
explain why I liked this home invasion horror flick. Maybe it’s because the
hero is a woman, the one smart enough and strong enough to stay alive. Maybe
it’s because of the twist, that I saw coming but still felt was satisfying in
its storytelling. Maybe it’s fun to watch a bunch of rich people make mistakes
that cost their lives. I’m just not sure; I just liked this thrilling tale of
men in wolf masks, for apparently no reason, assaulting a wealthy family arrived
to their vacation mansion for a get together. Sharni Vinson does a fine job as
the anchor, the hero with the survivor skills to make the hunters the hunted.
She’s basically the John McClane of the story. Director Adam Wingard has
created something worth checking out and I’ll certainly keep on the lookout for
future projects he’s involved with. Grade: B+
