Ready or Not
dir. Matt Bettinelli-Olpin · 2019
Plot
All of us have made certain efforts so our in-laws will like us, but Grace is going to have to give it her all if she wants to fit in with her brand new husband's wealthy dynasty, who require her to follow a brutal tradition: for the bride to try to survive her wedding night while the rest of them hunt her down. The class struggle stuff hits the proverbial fan in this extremely black satire starring a brilliant Samara Weaving and including an uncommonly perverse Andie MacDowell.
Why watch
"Ready or Not" is a wickedly entertaining blend of horror and dark comedy that turns the traditional wedding night into a savage game of survival, exposing the grotesque underbelly of wealth and privilege. With sharp satire and relentless pacing, it invites viewers to question the lengths one will go to for acceptance in a world where family ties can be deadly.
