Barbarian / M3gan / Terrifier 2

Barbarian (2022) A woman staying at an Airbnb discovers that the house she has rented is not what it seems. This is yet another movie where I absolutely do not want to say anything about the plot, because you want to know absolutely nothing going in.  Even that tagline up above is too much.  I should remove it.

The Invisible Man / Malignant / Smile

The Invisible Man (2020) When Cecilia's abusive ex takes his own life and leaves her his fortune, she suspects his death was a hoax.
