“Safer At Home” (* out of four) was a maddeningly tedious horror melodrama set 2 years into the pandemic about a group of friends (Alisa Allapach, Adwin Brown, Katie L. Hall, and others) who throw a wild online party in which they all take ecstasy but soon find that what is going on in the outside world may be more terrifying to them and that perhaps they need to stay indoors and introspect. More of an experiment than an actual film (almost the entire film is online) and on that level runs out of steam (and story) pretty quickly. Viewers will likely feel much “safer at home” avoiding this and uploading something else on Netflix.
