Horror movies tackling social issues have been trending and No one gets out alive is a good example of one which also includes a somewhat original mythology mixed with some traditional haunting elements, and good acting performances.
Ambar is an immigrant young woman who arrived to the US in search of the "American dream". Desperate without documentation, lacking money to survive and wondering how she is going to pay rent, she is forced to move into a boarding house where odd things start happening, soon she finds herself in a nightmare begins that she cannot escape. The film has something to say about the difficulties faced by undocumented migrants and the dangerous situations they are put through with a supernatural twist. It's easy to feel Amber's despair and anxiety as everything seems to go wrong and there are some creepy visuals as she starts to lose a grip of reality. The house was just horrendous, the entire setting and make up /visual effects are well-done. The ending... I don't know, it's not terrible but it's a type of open ending which seems to be in fashion these days probably due to the success of big franchises (there is another recent Netflix release which had a very similar ending).
If you liked this movie I recommend Our House (2020) on Netflix.
