You’re Next
The Davisons, an upper-class family, are extremely wealthy — but also estranged. In an attempt to mend their broken family ties, Aubrey (Barbara Crampton) and Paul (Rob Moran) Davison decide to celebrate their wedding anniversary by inviting their four children and their children’s significant others to their weekend estate. The celebration gets off to a rocky start, but when crossbow-wielding assailants in animal masks suddenly attack, the Davisons must pull together or die.
2011, 94 minutes, Rated R, USA, Directed by Adam Wingard

"Adam Wingard's You're Next brazenly merges the home-invasion thriller with the dysfunctional family dramedy."
- R. Kurt Osenlund, SLANT -
"Turns out You’re Next isn’t a slave to horror-movie conventions after all — rather, it’s having tongue-in-cheek fun with conventions while playing up to them, complete with a killer retro ’80s-horror synth score and a gruesome finale that recalls the excess of Peter Jackson’s “Dead Alive.” "
- Barbara VanDenburgh, ARIZONA REPUBLIC -
"A solid watch for gore fans."
- Anna Smith, TIME OUT LONDON -
"The surprise is how effective Wingard is at keeping the atmosphere jumpy and tense. And you can't help rooting for Erin, who could win Survivor if she went on the show. Vinson's take-charge performance is the life of this badass party. When you're ducking in your seat, it's nice to have someone to root for."
- Peter Travers, ROLLING STONE
