'The Guest' is director Wingard's follow-up to the surprisingly fun 'You're Next'. I enjoyed that film for it's simplicity, genre twisting, and willingness to entertain. And I enjoyed this one for all the same reasons. This domestic disturbance story unfolds naturally through it's fast pace and quick character summarizations. No time is wasted, and explanations are kept to a basic minimum. It's not trying to be anything more than an easy entertaining watch. It succeeds at it's purpose.
