Michael Haneke’s English-language remake of his most controversial film retains the original’s ability to shock and unnerve in its provocative investigation of the link between violence and media spectacle. While on a lake-house vacation, a family gets an unexpected visit from two disturbed young men—plunging them into a nightmarish fight to survive that plays out as both a terrifying thriller and a coolly incisive, meta reflection on the spectator’s relationship to the horror on-screen.
