Why watch this film?

Director Drew Goddard had already dissected horror conventions with "The Cabin in the Woods," which he repeats in "Bad Times at the El Royale." This time, the filmmaker satirizes suspense films like those of master Alfred Hitchcock - and this with a luxurious cast with names like Jeff Bridges, Dakota Johnson, Cynthia Erivo, Chris Hemsworth and Jon Hamm, among others.
