The Story
The crew of an American home renovation show, Home Hunters Global, follows a couple fixing up an old house in a remote village in Moldova. When the crew returns months later to check on the work, they film a ritual they were not supposed to see, and the villagers do not take it well.
Verdict
A good idea that is fun for most of its running time. The first half is a sharp joke about reality TV, and the cast clearly enjoys it. Then it turns into a bloody horror film, and the tone jumps around a lot. Not everything lands, but the last act is wild and I enjoyed it more than I expected. Put it on with friends and a few drinks.
