I beg your finest pardon, Warner Bros. and New Line Cinema? What exactly did you just release in front of my eyes? Barbarian was one of those rare horror movies that was just as good as all of the hype that surrounded it, and if you managed to get to the screening without getting spoiled, you were in for a treat. The team behind that film, not the same director and writer, is back for something else that looks completely wild, just from the teaser trailer. What exactly is going on in the teaser trailer for Companions? What genre is this movie? Thank you for not telling us a single thing; that is how you build hype. An early January release date used to be something to worry about, but these days, we get some really off-the-wall stuff, and this looks like one of those.
