(2013) ***3/4
The wealthy Davison family gathers at their newly-acquired "fixer-upper" country estate to celebrate the parents' wedding anniversary. Tensions run high, but family drama has to temporarily take a back seat when crossbow bolts start to fly through the windows and the family members and their significant others are killed off, one after another.
What a great idea to bring a touch of black comedy to the home invasion subgenre. Yes, it's gory and violent, but the humor keeps it from being oppressive. If you're looking for a consistently entertaining watch with a healthy PITA quotient, give this one a try.

The girl looks like Crystal in that picture!
