Ignoring the red flags, the Smiths continue their trip, leading to a series of bizarre events that will keep you guessing. While it may remind some viewers of Midsommar, this film places a heavier emphasis on comedy, showcasing Frost’s script’s ability to balance laughter with the tension.
Set to hit US theaters on December 6th, 2024, Get Away promises to be a standout film with its entertaining mix of horror, comedy, and some distinctly Scandinavian quirks.
