What is Barbarian (2022) about?
Tess travels to Detroit for a job interview and books a rental home. When she arrives late at night, she finds that the house has been double-booked and that Keith, a stranger, is already staying there. Tess decides to spend the evening despite her misgivings. Mysterious sounds lead her into other parts of the house, where she finds reasons to fear more than an unexpected house guest. That premise comes from 20th Century Studios’ official US synopsis.
The film was written and directed by Zach Cregger. Its setup begins with a tense, ordinary problem—a booking mix-up—and builds suspense around what the house conceals.
