A horror thriller with a sci-fi twist, a gifted comedic ensemble cast (which I incorrectly thought may give our characters some zest), and a unique directorial vision—the trailers sold me. I was a little disappointed to have the movie’s first major twist revealed to me via trailers and posters (not the movie’s…
