BARBARIAN

Set in a rundown neighborhood in Detroit, Tess (Georgina Campbell) has an important job interview in the morning. She booked an Airbnb and is horrified to discover Keith (Bill Skarsgård) in the house upon her arrival. It could be a simple misunderstanding that the house was double booked or is there something more sinister involved? Discovering a hidden underground passage, Tess and Keith are intrigued enough to see where it leads. While this film is absolutely crazy at times, I will give props to writer/director Zach Cregger as this is most definitely an original film. A second viewing is in order as there are times where the audience cannot believe what is happening onscreen and parts may be more digestible a second time around. Also, the film has a non-linear timeline so it'll bounce around a bit but as always, come together perfectly in the end. This may not be a film for everyone, but for those horror fans or those looking for something a bit more obscure, this is worth taking a chance on. 6/10
