"Ready Or Not" is the story of a young bride (Weaving) who marries into a ridiculously rich and delightfully deranged family. Her wedding night becomes her worst nightmare as she's forced to play a lethal game of hide-and-seek and must fight to stay alive. (Gary Reber)

Special features include commentary by Radio Silence and Actress Samara Weaving, the making-of featurette "Let The Games Begin" (HD 42:28), a gag reel (HD 04:05), upfront previews and a Movies Anywhere digital code.

The 2.39:1 1080p AVC picture, reviewed on a Sony Bravia Z9D 4K Ultra HD HDR display, upconverted to 2160p with greater resolution and luminance, was photographed digitally with the Arri Alexa Mini camera system and sourced from a 2K master Digital Intermediate format. Overall, the imagery is a touch digital in appearance. The picture's color palette exhibits yellowish tones throughout, in an attempt to enhance the Le Domas mansion's Gothic appearance. The gore sequences are frequent and exhibit bloody imagery. Fleshtones are generally acceptable given the yellowish hue treatment. Contrast ranges from mediocre to quite good. Resolution can be a bit soft, but close-ups, which are prominent, exhibit fine detail. This is a pleasingly Gothic-toned picture. (Gary Reber)

The DTS-HD Master Audio™ 5.1-channel soundtrack delivers the expected enhancements to the execution of the gore segments with deep, powerful bass and sound effects such as a segment involving intense thunder and lightening sonics and those involving gunshots. The music is quite loud relative to other sound elements and is enhanced with strong bass extensions. The surrounds are engaged effectively and enhance the dimensionality of the Le Domas mansion's environmental ambience. Dialogue is generally well integrated into the proceedings. This is an enjoyably fun and humorous soundtrack. (Gary Reber)
