The Lair is a 2022 action horror film. [1] [2] [3]
When Royal Air Force pilot Lt. Kate Sinclair is shot down over Afghanistan, she finds refuge in an abandoned underground bunker where deadly man-made biological weapons – half human, half alien – are awakened.
Variety wrote "There’s nary a dull moment, albeit no truly memorable ones either. It’s a movie more hectic than exciting, let alone scary. But it does move along at a brisk clip that attests to the director’s knack for staging and pacing splattery action." [1] Noel Murray of the Los Angeles Times wrote "The Lair doesn’t finish as spectacularly as it starts, but that just means it’s a good genre picture and not a great one." [4]
