Inviting complete strangers into your humble abode, right next to where your kiddos sleep, sounds terrifying without context. Yet, people do that everyday in vacation rental apps. It’s a concept so potentially horrifying, it’s practically begging for a cinematic makeover. Enter Richard Halpern’s Suburban Nightmare, a fictional movie about an Airbnb killer. Let’s dive into this wild world where hospitality meets horror.
This film is a tense, suspenseful story that feels ripped straight from the headlines. The kind of chilling premise you can easily imagine seeing on the nightly news. It centers around a family struggling to make ends meet using an online rental app to share their home, allowing a guest with a violent past into their residence.
