This movie is quite fun. I do not recognize any of the actors. It is like a noir, modern horror movie? Like it isn’t jumpy scary at all, in fact its not horror, it is a thriller. Sorry I am spit balling here.
Ok a man visits his long time friend he has not seen in a long time, a fellow chef. A very successful chef. One who does meals for very rich families in far away locations that seem to always be exotic. When he shows up to the house, he realizes something much more sinister is going on with his long lost friend. There is a reason why he is getting paid so much, so in stress and why the locations are always so far away.
Spoiler alert: THEY ARE COOKING HUMANS. And upon this realization and fear that he is the main course, he kills his friend and disposes of the body. This is before the “host” and the guests get there. SO when they do arrive, for all they know, he is THE CHEF that is supposed to be there, as no pictures or anything are provided to anyone for safety.
He spends the rest of the movie moonlighting as the CHEF, getting a HUGE payout right away that he desperately needs. He is next tasked with going into town to “hunt” their dinner. They end up killing a girl. Bringing her back to prepare. This is his first time doing this so he’s faking it to make it the best he can. Then a loop is thrown when an overzealous local cop investigates a missing person report in this town. Which he has been for a while as he notes, every 3 years in this town a person disappears randomly , when this group gets there.
It is a tense and fun thriller that is a roller coaster. I really enjoyed it, it was not REALLLLY good but it was absolutely high end SOLID FILM. Worth a watch for sure.
