    I feel like it got so hyped up by the kind of people I usually agree with and the way everyone kept saying “Don’t look up anything, just go in blind” had my hopes up for something really unique and interesting with twists in all the right ways.

    In the end I felt like it was just random and dumb… Good acting though.

      I liked the idea of two people ending up in the same AirBnB in a bad neighborhood (and even the tunnels parts), but the actual execution and horror elements weren’t really great. When the fake boobs got whipped out, I actually giggled. Spoiler It boils down to a special needs person with a kink

      Which kinda seems a bit…eh. Would have been better if it was some sort of carniverous fungus that the airbnb owner was experimenting with or tunneling spider the size of a large pumpkin or something.

        Yes, I feel like the initial premise was interesting, and the atmosphere of discomfort at the start was really well done, then fake boob got whipped out and it just got more and more random.
