Getaway
Tamara Miller has planned a weekend lake getaway with her two best friends. When she gets kidnapped by a backwoods cult, eerie and unexplained occurrences arise. Will she make it out alive or become the treasure of these deranged lunatics?
Why it matters
A tense backwoods nightmare that starts strong with Wolf Creek–style dread before unraveling into cultish chaos.
- Early acts nail rural isolation and creeping unease, evoking classic Australian horror vibes transplanted stateside
- Jaclyn Betham leads with grounded intensity amidst the cult’s unsettling dynamics and occasional queer subtext
- Practical sets and atmospheric woods add authenticity, even if the narrative loses focus after the kidnapping
- For viewers who dig folk-tinged backwoods horror but can forgive uneven pacing and scattershot storytelling
