Adam Wingard's You're Next brazenly merges the home-invasion thriller with the dysfunctional family dramedy.
Adam Wingard’s You’re Next strays just enough from formula to tweak our jaded appetites. That it does so without spraying the gore to geyserlike excess says a great deal about Mr. Wingard’s sensibility.
Wingard’s film is its own subset of fractious family crazy.
Turns out You’re Next isn’t a slave to horror-movie conventions after all — rather, it’s having tongue-in-cheek fun with conventions while playing up to them, complete with a killer retro ’80s-horror synth score and a gruesome finale that recalls the excess of Peter Jackson’s “Dead Alive.”
Character development and plotting are rudimentary, though the tongue-in-cheek never gets dislodged while the body count rises.
Although there's a twist in this tale, most of it is stuff we've seen before. And Wingard doesn't think of a new way to show it.
You’re Next is built on such an enormous pile of guff, it’s practically insulting.
