Saw the new home invasion / horror flick You’re Next… which looks like every other home invasion flick ever made (The Strangers, The Purge, Funny Games, etc.) and proceeds to be one of the worst movies of the year with iffy acting, unscary jump scares, lots of annoying screaming, shaky cam… and then turns on a dime to become one of the most inventive and surprising movies of the year! If you like horror movies – and if you are a little bored of them – this is a great movie because it isn’t at all what I expected it to be… so what is is? Really bad-ass, fun, laugh out loud, and shocking. And, yes, gory and violent so you know if it’s not for you in that regard. Won’t spoil why it works or what the surprises were. I had a ton of fun with it – never had a movie turn on a dime quite like this. Hell, the movie is at 82% on Rotten Tomatoes and it’s a gory, scary genre movie – that doesn’t happen.

Score: 90
