Quartile rating: 6.5/10 · 1 rating
An immigrant in search of the American dream is forced to take a room in a boarding house and soon finds herself in a nightmare from which she can't escape.
No One Gets Out Alive offers a reasonably competent haunted boarding house horror with a socially conscious immigrant lens that gives it some thematic weight above genre average. The acting is serviceable with Cristina Rodlo carrying the film capably. The cinematography maintains a decent dread atmosphere. However, the ending devolves into fairly conventional creature-horror chaos that undercuts the slower psychological tension built earlier, feeling rushed and tonally inconsistent. The concept of weaving immigration anxiety into haunted house horror is interesting but not executed with enough distinctiveness to stand truly apart from similar genre fare.
