I love quirky horror movies with kick-butt heroines — films like Ready or Not.

Ready or Not is a super-quirky horror film about Grace, who is marrying Alex Le Domas — a member of the rich Le Domas family, who made their money in board games.

(And yes, there is a vibe here that feels very akin to Knives Out, but that’s more of a crime film than this — this is def. horror.)

The thing is that the family’s board games fortune comes from a deal with the devil — like… literally.

And wedding nights are when he collects on the debt.

On wedding nights, the new family member has to play a game.

You might get something harmless like tiddlywinks or chess… or you might pull the card no-one wants. Hide and seek.

The way this family plays hide and seek? Not good.

One guess for which card Grace pulls… ;)

It’s well worth checking out if you’re a horror fan!
