I really like Jeremy Saulnier. He did Blue Ruin, Green Room, Hold the Dark and Murder Party. The way he shows violence is so abrupt and visceral. It's as far from glorification as it gets. Well, except for Murder Party, that was just fun and hilarious.
Green Room was great, loved how it held the tension all the way through. Murder Party sounded interesting but could easily be terrible, I didn't realize it was the same guy. I'll have to check it out.
Murder Party is about a guy who answers a flier for a Halloween party but it turns out the people who put out the flier are crazy art students that want to murder someone. It has the same kind of vibes as Ready or Not. It's very comedic which is a big departure from his other work like Green Room where everything is bleak and realistically violent.
