TRUTH OR DARE
Few producers are riding a streak as hot as Jason Blum, whose Blumhouse Productions is now a household name in horror after shepherding the Purge and Insidious franchises and enjoying three box-office hits last year with Split, Get Out, and
Happy Death Day. The latest Blumhouse picture centers on a group of teenagers who begin a harmless game of Truth or Dare. But they soon find that some kind of evil spirit oversees the game, and they’ll die if they fail to tell the truth or perform the dare. Even worse, they can’t quit, even as the game grows exponentially more dangerous. Rated PG-13. 100 minutes. Regal Stadium 14. (Not reviewed)
