What they share
Theysit in Mystery / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to The 9th Life of Louis Drax, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Bad Times at the El Royale is
Lake Tahoe, 1969, a neon sign reflected on wet pavement. A priest, a singer, and a vacuum cleaner salesman check in, each with a secret. Goddard sets the stage for a tense night of reckoning.
