    Really good. In my case being trapped with such a talkative person would be the scariest part
  • "I'll just use my data" The real horror hidden in this horror movie 😆
  • She said at one point during their first conversation at the table having coffe, that: 'I DONT DWELL ON THE PAST, CUZ THE LITTLE THINGS WIILL EAT AT YOU..' And now we know that the old lady meant it LITERALLY..😂 😂😂😂

    What a delightful host! No one could possibly give her a negative review!
  • This is a horror film about what happens if you’re too polite. I would have died too while being annoyed the whole time
  • @Ianad2
    I'd be "This woman is not shutting up. I'm out of here."
  • @willowclay5406
    Those drink coasters on the table were most definitely a hint also about her too. She probably came from a psych ward lol!
  • @willowclay5406
    He was trapped with a psychotic energy vampire! Her talking alone was enough to torture him!
  • OUT OF EVERYTHING IN THIS STORY, THAT BATHROOM MIRROR GAVE ME THE CREEPS🥴🫣

    So…the couple adopted 3 monster triplets, and then they got hungry. The husband either died trying to quell them (so the wife decided to feed the children his remains), or she always planned to kill and feed him to the monsters…
  • That feeling when you rewatch a second time and hear those little growls you didn’t notice before every time she mentions “little things.”

    Definitely reflects the horrors of some air Bnb experiences. Chatty hosts who shouldn't even be there, absent WiFi which should be there, ice cold water when they said geyser works, one cup and a broken pot when they say self catering. Lol, sometimes air Bnb is an unnecessary risk unless its recommended by someone you know and trust...

    The fact that she didn't walk away after showing him to hus room made me incredibly uncomfortable!!!! The whole time I was hoping she'd just stop talking and walk away. Why just keep standing there while he tries to unpack, the longer it went on the more heavy and uncomfortable I got. 😬
  • It’s hard to trust anyone nowadays because we don’t know about their true intentions.
  • I don't know if anyone else caught the little tune she was humming at the end. It was the same tune that was in American Horror Story. "Murder House". Great short film!!

    I'm going to teach you all something about predatorial toxic humans: Number one they're very intrusive of your boundaries and two super controlling! The character was intrusive with his personal space and she imposed herself into asking him repeatedly about this and that and the coffee! She poisoned his coffee!
  • This reminds me of the 70s movie “It’s Alive”. The commercial always freaked me out as a kid.
  • @t.ruththeblack
    That was hilarious and a cool play on words. Ilene Sullivan was superb as Mrs Phillips, She never said Mr Phillips died. Just that there was nothing she could do. Very nicely done!
