You Better Watch Out is a fun, seasonal horror/thriller.
It opened with a setting/premise I didn't expect - a replicated town inhabited by kidnap victims. Where are they, who put them there, and for the love of mac and cheese, why?
There's a ton of action in this ruthless tale, and it would make a great Christmas horror movie. (A favourite genre of mine.) And while I didn't particularly connect with any of the characters, the great twist ending made up for it.
Recommended!
