★- One of those elevated horror movies. Gonna have to remember that I almost always hate them going into the future. This was supposed to be up there with Barbarian and Nope for this year's best horror. Nah.
Gist is a Danish family--mother, father, daughter--visits a Dutch family--mother, father, mute son--that they met on a vacation at the beginning of the movie. The hosts, it becomes clear, are fucking insane. The Danish couple, however, don't know how to read the signs and get the fuck out as shit starts to escalate and become more and more nightmarish.
Hardly any of the movie is believable. The evil Dutch folks, it is revealed, has been up to some shit for a long time. One would assume 100s of years when we see the extent of it. However, I'm pretty sure we aren't supposed to think that they are supernatural in the end.
All that said... I can’t imagine hating a movie more. Dahmer or Funny Games would be a palate cleanser after this fucked up watch. DO. NOT. RECOMMEND.
