Gillett and Olpin have been a directing duo for a while now, with credits in the horror/thriller genre that include titles like 2014’s “Devil’s Due.” Moving higher their technique has not changed.
Directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett ("Devil's Due,").
That is the concept behind directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillet (Devil's Due) horror/thriller, Ready or Not.
The only feature they had made in full before Ready or Not was the atrocious Devil’s Due.
But the movie’s combination of horror, dark comedy and social commentary, while a substantial improvement over directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett’s previous effort, the dreary found-footage “Rosemary’s Baby” clone “Devil’s Due,” is nowhere near as deftly handled as it was in Peele’s film.
Directed with ingenuity and energy by Radio Silence filmmaking collective members Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett (Devil’s Due, Southbound, V/H/S) and snappily penned by Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy, Ready or Not isn’t pretending to be something it’s not, but rather the best version of what it could hope to be.
