    I first heard about this film from movie YouTuber Bobby Burns, and I’m glad I did. This film centers on Will, a man who revives an Invitation to a lavish dinner party from his Ex-wife Eden, and her new partner David, after being away for 2 years. And that's all I can say about this movie without giving away too much. This movie is amazing in every sense of the word, which is surprising considering the director of this movie made Jennifer's Body and Ælon Flux and the writers of this movie also wrote the Ride Along films and Clash Of The Titans. All of the cast play their characters fantastically, the standouts being Logan Marshall-Green, Tammy Blanchard, Michael Huisman, and the always great John Carroll Lynch, whom I didn't know was in this movie. This movie is very much an slow burn, but I was on the edge of my seat the entire run time of this film. It's suspenseful as hell! This movie is my favorite of 2016 so far, and I give it a 10/10. I highly recommend this film. You can find it on Netflix.
