Killer Retreat
Available on Prime Video, Tubi TV, Plex
A group of urbanites are seduced by a brochure offering change, personal growth, and a break from overcrowded and polluted London. They will be ensconced in yurts and tipis on a farm, far away from the city. The weekend is facilitated by a husband and wife combo who immediately confiscate all mobile phones. While their female host genuinely seeks to help unpack the group’s emotional baggage, her husband is less amenable, confidently quoting from the poet Rumi and the psychologist Carl Gustav Jung. He also targets the damaged, vulnerable and, of course, the physically attractive. Their lives change, but not in the way planned or imagined.
