🎯 Verdict
"Beauty and The HorrificIf Ready or Not was a show and instead of going down its usual route of "The Most Dangerous Game", had it gone into The Adams Family-The House of Usher (I couldn't pin down one) meets Suspiria territory with eerily intense jarring score in the backdrop of a Flannagan-style spooky atmosphere. Spread pretty thin upto the edges, Something Very Bad Is Going To HappenIt's a hard V curve. Things started really intriguing and then took a straight nosedive and finally, the finale got a little bit interesting. If not for that last episode which could be considered as the domestic of this century involving a Rachel inside one locked room, this show would have lost one lucky star. Fox traps for destiny in what seems like a weekend sleepover girls' night. It's a school project full of make-believe rules and games and family trees. The show keeps adding new rules and new games well in the middle of the plot which was a vibe killer but it attempts to lock in for the clutch at the end. Something about visiting their in-laws which render white people catatonic and hence, I guess, so many similar themed movies, shows and novels. In my culture, you throw in some dowry, change surname along with your domicile and bear some children and no fuss no muss the in-laws will open their arms wide as long as one knows their place, inside the matchbox or cinder block."
