Horror/thrillers nowadays have a tendency to rely on blood and gore to make up for the lack of a plot/storyline, but The Invitation gets the balance absolutely right. The acting is excellent with special mention to the lead, Tom Hardy look-alike Logan Marshall-Green. How this guy isn't a much bigger name after a performance like this is a mystery to me. He's helped by a strong cast and very, very good performances from everyone. The suspense starts right at the beginning and continues to the final, satisfying climax. Personally, I loved the ending. You see some of it coming but the final minute is the cherry on the cake. It's brave, it's tense and it's one of the best films I've seen this year. Loved it.
