See the films the platforms disagree about most →During the early days of the pandemic, two friends isolate themselves at a remote family lakehouse, believing it to be the safest place. Their quarantine is shattered when a mysterious intruder begins to stalk and terrorize them. Isolated from help, they must use their wits to survive a threat that seems to know the property intimately. The film turns a real-world fear of contagion into a classic, confined home-invasion thriller.
