The Retreat

A couple on a romantic getaway to a remote cabin finds themselves terrorized by an unseen force. As they try to escape the isolation and the growing paranoia, they realize they are not alone and the danger is far more sinister than they could have imagined. The terrifying events push their relationship to the breaking point as they fight for survival.

The Retreat received a mixed to negative reception from critics, with many pointing to its predictable plot and underdeveloped characters. While some appreciated its attempts at suspense and its isolated setting, the film was largely criticized for failing to deliver a truly original or impactful horror experience. Audience scores were similarly lukewarm.

• The film relies too heavily on common horror tropes without adding anything new.
• The pacing is slow, and the build-up to the scares is often unconvincing.
