Gone in the Night (2022)
A somewhat mismatched couple -- adventurous young guy, more settled middle-aged woman -- find a young man and woman already in their cabin-in-the-woods rental. Because they're far from everything, the four collectively decide to go with it for the evening. In the morning, however, half of each couple is missing, having apparently run off together. The left-behind woman eventually reaches out to the owner of the cabin and he winds up working with her to track down her boyfriend.
I really enjoyed the mystery and the flashback reveals. Nothing about this story felt as unbelievable as it probably should have, and I believe that's down to Winona Ryder's perfect work here. She does a marvelous job of being our avatar: I understood what she was thinking and doing, especially in the last act. Really great stuff.
