Why is The Visit Worth the Effort?
Okay, let's be honest, it’s more than just a scary movie. It's weirdly funny. And surprisingly touching, in its own messed-up way!
Two kids go to visit their grandparents for the first time. Grandparents they've never met. What could go wrong?
Um, EVERYTHING! Grandma starts acting...strange. Grandpa's behavior is unsettling too. They blame it on being old, but is there something more sinister?
It's a Found Footage Film
That means the story unfolds through the kids' own camera work. It feels super real and immediate. It adds to the creep factor in a big way.

The Performances are Great
The kids are believable and relatable. The grandparents are, well, unforgettable. Olivia DeJonge and Ed Oxenbould as the grandkids, bring charm to the movie.
Think Hansel and Gretel gone horribly wrong!
It’s not just jump scares; it’s psychological. It’s about family. It's about aging. And it's about really, really weird grandparents. What's not to love (and fear)?
