Episode 112 - Barbarian (2022)

Released in 2022, Barbarian follows Tess, a woman who rents an Air BnB in a rough part of Detroit only to find that the guy who plays Pennywise also has the place booked. While yes, this is by no means the worst thing that has ever happened to anyone in an airBnB, Tess is still understandably upset by this and so they spend an awkward night getting to know one another. It naturally turns out though, that they are not alone in there... But Barbarian isn't just a film of frights and shock value, it's also a powerful commentary on a complex social dynamic in the wake of the #MeToo movement giving the film a dimension that a lot of modern horror *CoughSMILEcough can only dream of. Amazing performances from Justin Long, Bill Skarsgard and Kathryn Hunter push this film to the top of 2022's best horror list, and an interesting slit narrative firmly cements it there, but does that actually mean that we liked it? You'll have to tune in to episode 112 of 100 Horrors to find out! Overall, Barbarian is an experience that will leave you breathless and terrified, but also give you plenty to think about long after the credits roll. So if you're a fan of horror films or just looking for an intense, adrenaline-filled ride, Barbarian is a must-see.
