Friday Night Double Feature

That’s right, I’m at it again, even though I just did the same thing last week! I saw back to back movies last night, and the outcome was significantly better!

Movie Review: Ready or Not

A few months back when I saw the trailer for Ready or Not, I thought to myself, “have I seen this before?” And with a little bit of thought, two movies actually came to mind, You’re Next and The Invitation. Both movies focus on a night of survival from attackers, but while those two films were their own thing, so was Ready or Not, and I was definitely ready to see it!
