Two armed robbers (Bill Skarsgard and Maika Monroe) run out of gas after robbing a convenience store. Happening upon an empty rural house, they enter and make themselves at home. When they make a disturbing discovery, and the homeowners (Jeffrey Donovan and Kyra Sedgwick) return, the terror begins, along with the laughs.
VILLAINS strikes the perfect balance between horror and comedy, with plenty of mirth mixed with thrills, chills, and even some truly poignant moments. Mr. Skardsgard and Ms. Monroe make us believe that their characters really do care for each other. Mr. Donovan and Ms. Sedgwick play their roles as completely bananas. Even so, there are times when they're -somewhat- sympathetic.
This movie is one of the better examples of its subgenre...
