Hulu's No One Will Save You (2023). Edit: It's on Disney+Star for those outside of the US
I thought it was very good. While it's only 90 minutes long it lacks dialogue, so I was concerned it might end up feeling a bit slow. Fortunately, I could not have been more wrong. It managed to move along at an impressively brisk pace. I gave it a shot because Stephen King compared it to one of my favorite episodes from the OG Twilight Zone called "The Invaders" (s02e15) and I think he was spot on. The movie clearly owes a lot to that episode without being derivative at all.
So if anyone's looking for a good horror/scifi flick this Halloween I'd highly recommend No One Will Save You. And while you're at it, make it a double feature by ending the night with The Invaders from the original Twilight Zone. It's the perfect double feature and would only take about 2 hours.
