What’s It About
Grace couldn’t be happier after she marries the man of her dreams at his family’s luxurious estate. There’s just one catch — she must now hide from midnight until dawn while her new in-laws hunt her with guns, crossbows and other weapons.

What the hell. After seeing the trailer, you should know what this film is all about but watching it unfold for the next ninety minutes was a different story. The story starts rather slow as they try and make sense out of the whole family curse stuff. Apparently, once you marry someone in this Parker Brothers type family, you are required to play a game to make it official. This tradition had been going on for years, and the game played determined your fate. In other words, the family sold their soul, and they believe they must sacrifice the latest bride or groom that pulls the wrong prewritten game card. This time it was a bride, Grace, that got that unlucky card. He husband, although aware of the “curse,” failed to mention this to his new bride and now she’s in mortal danger. Before Grace realized how dangerous this family tradition was, she thought they were your standard eccentric wealthy family. I thought they were crazy to believe in devil curses. Once Grace discovered the seriousness of her situation, the movie got much darker and funnier. Ready or Not is a dark comedy/horror film that will make you laugh and feel guilty for laughing because a person was hunted or brutally killed. If you can get past the guilt, this is a fun film that mirrors a lot of the same type of dark humor we have come to accept in today’s society. With everything happening, it made me wonder if rich people do things because they’re rich enough to them or are they doing these things because of some superstitious family ritual. Honestly, I’m surprised this film was allowed to exist since the fate of that other film about rich people hunting people was canceled because of all the brutal on-screen killings. I guess it depends on who you know. So if you love or like dark humor with a horror appeal to it, Ready or Not was made for you.
