Zach Cregger's debut solo project, Barbarian, is the craziest, goriest, most wtf-iest theatrical release so far in 2022, like some bastard creature that escaped from captivity. Meet one of the year's biggest and most brutal horror surprises. In order to keep viewers on edge, writer/director Zach Cregger ("The Whitest Kids U' Know") forgoes conventions in Barbarian, resulting in one of the most wonderfully bonkers viewing experiences in recent memory. A simple rental nightmare turned into a dramatic pressure cooker situation that kept getting worse and worse until midnight.
