THE GUEST tells the story of David, a young soldier (Dan Stevens) who arrives on the doorstep of the Peterson family, claiming to be a good friend of their beloved son who died in action.The Petersons welcome David into their home and into their lives, but, when people start mysteriously dying in thier small Texas town, mayhem ensues as their teenage daughter (Maika Monroe) starts wondering if David is responsible.
This hugely entertaining 2014 film, which deftly blends thiller, action, and horror, is practically a "who's who" of genre moviemaking in the decade since its release.
Stevens, who had previosuly been most known from his stint on Downton Abbey, went on to star in three seasons of FX's Legion, and has had a busy 2024 with both ABIGAIL and CUCKOO. Maika Monroe, who launched her career as an indie scream queen with THE GUEST, has since starred in acclaimed horror films IT FOLLOWS, WATHCER, and LONGLEGS. Meanwhile, Adam Wingard has been given the keys to the American Godzilla kingdon, helming both GODZILLA VS. KONG and GODZILLA X KONG: THE NEW EMPIRE.
