@@AndreNitroX It was good. I think the movie was really good till the point they discover what is about to happen ? But there after the movie really loses the tension and scares. Its unable to build up on great set up and just keeps going in circles with Luke Wilson and Kate Beckinsale just moving around and giving scared reactions. It seems the movie was just focused on showing them trying to escape rather than them facing the threat that was so subtly yet vividly displayed. There was a plot for one half but there was no plot for the other. The intelligence, the engagement and the suspense that the movie builds up in the first half just gives to cliched set pieces. The ending is a major disappointment defying all the logic and narrative the movie had build. But yes all the actors, there are just 5 do a great job. And Wilson and Beckinsale are really natural. But a very very ordinary and unimaginative second half ruin what could been a truly great horror movie. 6 from me.

She's lost not just her family, but all of her closest friends and she even has to live with the guilt of contributing to the death of one. That's awful.

For me Vacancy is at the top of my list of.. I don’t know i guess ‘under the radar, underrated or not as talked about horrors’. It plays off our normal insecurity of that last stop hotel out in the middle of nowhere, and the fact that it’s two grown adults makes it even better in my opinion. I mean how many horror movies out there are about a couple in their 30’s/40’s actually trying to survive. But I also find that more intriguing that’s it’s silently been tucked away and forgotten making it a far more sought after film when it comes bubbling to the surface of your mind trying to remember it and wanting to go back and watch it and that only you yourself know about this film. Although I feel the sequel definitely was just a cheap prequel attempt to try and explain everything and yeah it’s alright but i like the mystery of the first. So eh, I’m not not going to acknowledge its existence but I’m not going to watch it as frequently

I'm so glad this video and the comments exist because for years I've been dismissed by other film students when I said that the movie is more clever and self-aware than the reception at the time may indicate. It not only stays away from overdone conventions of that time but it even playfully teases the audience with them. It came at a time where all horror wanted to be was shocking both in gore and twists. Vacancy, refreshingly, used its gore carefully and instead of a last minute ass-pull twist, it realizes that the most unpredictable thing to do in those final moments would be to do something predictable.

I never really knew if that was just me reading into it (I'm probably reading into it lol) or if it was an intentional fake out, but since all these other red herrings were called out, now I think it genuinely was done on purpose, and that's awesome!

Omg, I was thinking about this movie this other day, but couldn’t remember the name. Thanks for talking about this!

I put off watching this for over a decade because I figured it would be too torture-oriented for my tastes. But as you said so well, the level of violence in this movie is very restrained, and it's a pure suspense flick. I enjoyed the heck out of it, my expectations were blown out of the water. I think seeing that you had talked about it last year was floating around in my head as a reason to give it a chance. Great video as always.

I rewatched this one tonight and it seriously holds up way better than many of the films from that trend

Something about horror/thrillers based on sketchy motels always gets me. Another good one is Identity

I remember waiting for this to be available on DVD, and watching it many times over the next few years. Quite satisfying.

YES! I saw this movie on a whim way back in 2009 and loved it. This is probably the only time I've ever heard anyone talk about it.

Haven’t seen this movie in years but I remember the first time watching it. Really tense and kept me on the edge of my seat it’s well done

A top-notch thriller with more tension than gore, and excellent performances that had me biting my nails right up to the end. An 8 out of 10.

I love your videos so much. Informative but also if a movie isn't worth watching you also save me time!

Damn, Ryan has done it again! I saw this a few times back in the day when HBO would play it like crazy. Now I’m like, ‘hmmm, maybe it’s an overlooked classic?’ Gotta rewatch!

I know I've seen Vacancy. I remember liking Vacancy. I probably own Vacancy on DVD. I don't remember anything that happens in this movie.
