A husband eager for some family together time convinces his wife to bring their kids to her family’s beach house in Santa Cruz for a getaway. On their first night there, however, things get creepy when another family shows up in their driveway and forces their way into the house. To give away more would be a disservice to those who haven’t seen it but, suffice to say that, US is a thrilling horror film with an epic-in-scope backstory that is a treat on the big screen with an engaged audience.
