The Hunt (2020)
The script falls apart
This film got so much hype but the script and direction fall short. Betty Gilpin does her best to save this but the script gets more and unbelievable as it progresses. The 3rd act has some real logic flaws. Direction was also lazy as it didn't build an interesting enough world. Watch it with low expectations.
The Invisible Man (2020)
Good thriller but not memorable
It's one of those thriller that starts off well and then gets progressively predictable. Also, the ratings and buzz had inflated its appeal. the opening is suspenseful and full of intrigue but mid way through the plot becomes a bit predictable and absurd. Elisabeth Moss is fantastic and does her best to save the film from falling into predictable and cheap horror tropes.
Stray Dolls (2019)
Surprising gripping thriller
Not sure why the reviews are so mixed but I found this surprisingly gripping and a fun ride. The leads are unusual and captivating, especially Riz, who really draws you in. Dallas and Riz have an electric chemistry that really starts to cook by half way through. The plot has some unusual twists and surprises that heats up by the third act. I was hooked and recommend it both as a fun watch and maybe even something that sticks with you a little longer than the usual thriller.
