Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Barbarian (2022)

A woman shows up to an Airbnb only to discover someone else is already there, having booked it through a different site. Because she can't get hold of the rental agency nor can she find another place on short notice, the two decide to share the rental for the night and sort things out in the morning.

I don't want to give anything away, but this was such a surprise. It's a classic "girl, get yourself out of there NOW" movie while also managing to be something completely fresh. If you're looking for something scary, this should do the trick.
