Crazy nonsense fun
Annoyingly, we weren't sure about this film, so we watched the trailer. That trailer pretty much gives away all of the wonderful twists of this crazy, multi-faceted film.
A young couple pull one last robbery (when has that ever gone wrong?!) and quickly run out of petrol on the run. They find themselves breaking into the worst possible house, owned by a creepy couple who return shortly after.
The over-the-top acting is totally appropriate (luckily for Jeffrey Donovan) and serves to make this a great, not-too-violent or gory film.
Well worth a watch, but avoid the trailer!

Not Wanted
Well I like Westerns, Anthology films and some of Coen brothers films are great. So surely this was going to be a sure hit. Much like one of the stories you're hoping for gold but left with barely a glimmer.
6 stories of which a couple were good, a few just average and a dud. The biggest disappointment was that there appeared to be little point to stories, individually or collectively. Halfway through and it was becoming boring and just hoping the next story would be a big improvement. Only to fail. A real shame.

Ok follow up
A follow up to @Murder Mystery (2019) that doesn't seem to have had much publicity. Just popped up on Top picks this week.
Much the same formula as before our detective couple are invited to a wedding on a remote island, perfect setting for a murder or not?
Didn't really make great use of the remote island setting and less of a Murder Mystery this time round with more action. Still very fun scenes nearly all with the main couple on screen. Maybe not as lavish as the first but still a fun film.
