Khoi Vinh’s review published on Letterboxd:
A horror thriller with a brain, even if it does star Pete Davidson. Halina Reijn’s masterful construction of this familiar story of stranded teens getting offed one by one is short, taut and to the point, but also exceptionally canny about its characters’ motivations and challenges. I don’t even like this genre but this felt so thoroughly satisfying throughout, from the mercifully unexplained presence of Lee Pace to the exacting, subtle bread-crumbing of the mystery, to Rachel Sennott’s hilarious skewering of “allyship,” to Maria Bakalova’s unrecognizable performance—so believable as a taciturn, shy stranger at the party and so completely different from her performance in “Borat 2” that I’m beginning to realize she may be among the most talented actors of her generation—there are so many things here that are done so very well, they virtually ensure that it’s an instant classic.
