action
At the beginning of the film killed an unknown man a lamb wearing mask, a man and his wife in their home and writes with blood the words You're Next (German You're the next one ) to the wall. A little later, Erin, a young woman, accompanies her partner Crispian Davison to his family reunion in Missouri . In addition to the two of them, Crispian's parents Aubrey and Paul, Crispian's siblings Drake, Felix and Aimee and his brothers-in-law Kelly, Zee and Tariq are present.
While they are having dinner, someone shoots bolts through the kitchen window, killing Tariq and wounding Drake. Since the cell phones of those present do not work due to a lack of reception, Aimee runs outside to get help, but her throat is cut when she runs into a garotte wire stretched in front of the door . While Crispian goes out to seek help alone, Paul puts Audrey to bed so she can recover from her shock . When he leaves her alone, a man wearing a fox mask crawls out from under the bed and murders Audrey with a machete . Her family finds her body and the words You're Next written in her blood on the wall.
Erin tries to text the police and looks for anything to defend herself with. Shortly thereafter, she is attacked by a man who enters the house through the window and wears a tiger mask, but she manages to stab his hand and escape. Meanwhile, Kelly enters Paul and Audrey's bedroom again and notices that the man in the fox mask is still lying under the bed. She rushes to the neighboring house, but this belongs to the couple who were killed at the beginning. Kelly tries to break into the house, but is killed by the killer of her neighbors with an ax . In the other house, the man in the tiger mask attacks Erin again, and she finally kills him with a meat mallet . Shortly afterwards, the man in the lamb mask finds his body and the injured Drake, but withdraws when Erin wounds him with a screwdriver .
Paul finds sleeping bags and food packaging upstairs, which suggests that the murderers have been hiding in the house for a long time. When he wants to share his discovery with Zee and Felix, he is killed with a cut in the neck by the man in the fox mask. It turns out that Zee and Felix hired Tom (fox mask), Craig (lamb mask) and Dave (tiger mask) for the murders in order to inherit the family's fortune. Unsuspecting, Erin asks Zee to help her set up traps. She explains that she grew up in a prepper environment, where she learned combat and survival tactics. Meanwhile, Felix lures Drake into the basement and murders his brother with various screwdrivers.
Erin soon finds Paul's body and is attacked by Tom. She got herself to safety by jumping through a window, but injured her leg as a result. Realizing that her wound would not get her very far, she sneaks back into the house and hides. She overhears an argument between Zee, Felix and the two murderers. She is discovered by her SMS signal tone, followed and tries to run away again, which she fails because of her injury. So she secretly climbs back into the house through a window and barricades herself. Craig sees her, when he wants to climb through the window too, she stabs him.
Realizing that escape is impossible, Erin sets up a trap in the form of Craig's swinging ax at the entrance to the house. Tom realizes this, enters the house through a window and is killed by her in the basement with a log. When Erin goes into the kitchen, Felix injures her with a knife, she finally manages to stick his head in a switched-on mixer and so fatally injured him, she finally kills Zee with his knife. Then Felix's mobile phone rings, Erin takes the call without a word and learns that Crispian was also involved in Zee and Felix's plan. When he returns, he tries to placate Erin with a bribe , whereupon she stabs him.
Officer Trubiano, a policeman, arrives at the house and witnesses Crispian's death by Erin, which is why he thinks she is the murderer and shoots her in the shoulder. He calls for reinforcements, is warned by Erin not to come any closer, but still wants to enter the house and in the last shot is killed by the ax swinging down.
production
The screenwriter Simon Barrett came up with the idea for the film when the director Adam Wingard told him that so-called home invasion movies , i.e. productions, mostly from the horror or thriller area, which deal with burglaries, are the only films which still really scare him and he would therefore like to make such a film. Barrett wrote that he was inspired by the work of writer Agatha Christie and screwball comedies . Barrett also noted that while he was working he probably had Satan's Blood Rush in the back of his mind, but he didn't notice it until after the script was finished.
According to Wingard, the humorous scenes in the film are due to Barrett's cynical sense of humor. Some of the conversations the family has over dinner at the beginning of the film were improvised by the actors and were based on real-life conversations between the movie's makers and their own family members.
reception
You're Next received a 6.5 out of ten star rating based on 77,845 votes cast in the Internet Movie Database . At Rotten Tomatoes , the critics' rating is 77 percent (average 6.5 out of ten points), the audience rating is 60 percent (average 3.4 out of five points). On Metacritic , the film received a critical rating of 66 out of 100 and an audience rating of 7.1 out of ten.
Vanity Fair's Jordan Hoffman described You're Next as one of the "most entertaining horror films of the last ten years", while Chris Nashawaty, an editor of Entertainment Weekly magazine , rated it with a grade of B + (equivalent to a German two). He praised the black humor of the script and the traps of the protagonist and the antagonists, which he compared with the Rube Goldberg machine . You're Next is “a kind of mixture of a perfectly normal family and scream! ", He also called the final scene" wonderfully ill ".
Liam Lacey of The Globe and Mail rated the film 2.5 stars out of five because it was "well made but rudimentary". Rene Rodriguez, an editor for The Miami Herald newspaper , described the film as "practically offensive" and "idiotic". According to John DeFore of The Hollywood Reporter , more humor would have done the film good, and practically all of the characters are unsympathetic. In a guest post for The Oregonian , Stephen Whitty gave You're Next a grade of C + (corresponds to a German satisfactory). The production is unoriginal, as it is too similar to films like The Purge and The Last House on the Left , Whitty however praised the play by Sharni Vinson and Barbara Crampton .
