With Airbnb and vacation homes on the rise, there are certain horrors and risks of staying at an unknown and unfamiliar location for a stay. Not to mention, certain hosts can be a nightmare as demonstrated in the horror film Superhost.
Here is the synopsis of the film:
In Superhost, Teddy and Claire are travel vloggers who run a channel called, “Superhost” where they travel and share their experiences in and around vacation homes, and until recently, had become successful doing it. With a dwindling subscriber count, they find the perfect opportunity to create content that people want to see when they meet Rebecca, the host of their most recent trip. Slowly they start to realize that something isn’t right with Rebecca, and as they investigate it further, they unlock a horrifying truth. She doesn’t just want a great review, she wants something far worse.
The film stars Sara Canning (9-1-1, Nancy Drew), Osric Chau (The Flash, Nancy Drew), Gracie Gillam (Z Nation, Scream Queens), and Barbara Crampton (Jakob’s Wife). Brandon Christensen directed and wrote the movie.
