Review of The Rental (2020) by A.a. Dowd for The A.V. Club — 22 Jul 2020

This setup is so credible, in fact, that it’s doubly disappointing when the thriller elements do finally materialize and then promptly fail to thrill; it’s as if someone snatched the remote and changed the channel to a half-assed slasher starring the same characters.
