Usually the only terrifying thing about boujie fine dining experiences is the price tag attached to them. And perhaps the occasional food item that grosses you out.
Directed by Mark Mylod, The Menu puts a new spin on fear-inducing gastronomy with what appears to be a murderous chef played by a very sinister looking Ralph Fiennes, and a load of unsuspecting restaurant guests who think they’re all in for nothing more than a night of haute cuisine. Naturally, they all get more than they bargained for. And, no, we don’t mean free dessert.
Anya Taylor-Joy and Nicholas Hoult play a couple who travel to the high-end restaurant, which handily happens to be on a coastal island (handy because no one can hear you screaming, perhaps). Shocks and surprises await them, and the other guests, at their foodie retreat.
Written by Seth Reiss and Will Tracy, The Menu is produced by Adam McKay and Betsy Koch.
Anyone fancy eating at home, this evening? And maybe forever?
The Menu will be in theatres on 18 Nov. 2022.
