Barbarian (2022) *** [Horror Double Feature Pt. 2]

Barbarian (2022) has a lot of hype circling it, and while I thought it was pretty fun overall, it ultimately served as a decent second film of the Saturday night Horror Double Feature in which I partook (the first one being Pearl (2022) (review)). Barbarian has some good suspense and a couple of interesting about-faces, but I found the mostly murky, desaturated cinematography unremarkable. The performances are solid, there are a few laughs, and some pretty goofy shit (which honestly I'm on board for), but I'm not sure this is one I would revisit.
