The Guest is nothing like the movie I thought it'd be. It's one of those movies where the name is so generically boring that someone asks you "Have you seen The Guest?" and you respond "Sure", thinking you've seen it but you're actually thinking of The Others, The Nun, The Grudge, The Delivery, or The Batch. I actually just made up those last two, that's how boring the title of this movie is. The premise isn't that exciting either. A man shows up at a house claiming to be a friend of their son who died in war, but he's weird.
That said, this movie is way more fun than the title or the premise would indicate. When it breaks the sidewalls of its mediocre horror mold and spills messily out into other genres, it becomes a ton of fun. Dan Stevens and Maika Monroe are excellent as well.
