🔥One of the best captivating movies out there. It’s a must-watch! 👍🏼.BK💸Score: 5/5
Good but weirdI will say that I was interested in the movie from beginning to end. But in general the movie is just weird. The amount of swearing takes away from the integrity of the movie, the way it goes from one character to another is also strange. I appreciate the overall theme of the movie and in the end I was teary eyed. But overall I wouldn’t watch it again. I also don’t think it’s a “must watch”. The acting itself was good (surprisingly) and the theme was well portrayed. But the film itself was just weird and annoying during most points. My husband gives it 0/10 stars..YoungforeverxoScore: 3/5

Best Movie of 2019Don’t let the lack of Oscar noms or buzz in general steer you away from this film. Was lucky to be able to catch a screening and absolutely loved it. The performances, directing, cinematography, screenplay, and soundtrack are all top notch. This film left me reeling and thinking about it for the next week. You won’t be disappointed, and I cannot recommend it enough..JoeyManninoScore: 5/5

When Krisha shows up at her sister’s Texas home on Thanksgiving morning, her close and extended family greet her with a mixture of warmth and wariness. Almost immediately, a palpable unease permeates the air, one which only grows in force as Krisha gets to work cooking the turkey and trying to make up for lost time by catching up with her various relatives, chief among them her nephew, Trey. As Krisha's attempts at reconciliation become increasingly rebuffed, tension and suspicion reach their peak, with long-buried secrets and deep-seated resentments coming to the fore as everyone becomes immersed in an emotionally charged familial reckoning.
Imagine the end of the world—now imagine something worse. Award-winning filmmaker Trey Edward Shults follows his incredible debut feature KRISHA with IT COMES AT NIGHT, a horror film following a man (Joel Edgerton) as he learns that the evil stalking his family home may be only a prelude to horrors that come from within. Secure within a desolate home as an unnatural threat terrorizes the world, the tenuous domestic order he has established with his wife and son is put to the ultimate test with the arrival of a desperate young family seeking refuge. Despite the best intentions of both families, paranoia and mistrust boil over as the horrors outside creep ever-closer, awakening something hidden and monstrous within him as he learns that the protection of his family comes at the cost of his soul.

Giving up control isn't easy, so Marki makes sure she's still the queen bee--at home and in Hollywood.
