Retreat

I had the privilege to go see this movie at the riverrun film festival. I didn't really know what to expect as the trailer was a little hard to follow but I went in with good expectations all the same. It ended up being a lot like the beginning of Get Out where you can tell something is off but you can't quite place it. But when I thought it was going to go in that direction, it ended up going somewhere where totally different and even better. While it does drag a bit at the beginning, Retreat is a brilliant thriller about the dangers of trying to run away from your pain. I hope the director of this film continues to make more movies like this.
