Netflix fans say their anxiety is ‘through the roof’ after watching a ’10/10′ horror movie.

Acclaimed horror director Sam Raimi returns nearly a decade after his last hit, Don’t Breathe (2016), with another high-stakes thriller that brings a fresh twist to the classic cat-and-mouse scenario.

The thriller centers on Iris, portrayed by Kelsey Asbille, as she grieves the recent loss of her son.

Then, when a stranger intrudes upon her life, she finds herself trapped in a terrifying game of survival.

Rather than offering comfort, he injects her with a ‘special relaxant,’ which triggers an intense countdown.

She quickly learns that she has only 20 minutes before the drug takes full effect, paralyzing her temporarily but severely enough to leave her vulnerable.

Desperately trying to outwit her captor, Iris must face the fearsome clock ticking against her, facing one terrifying obstacle after another as she races to find help.

Directed by Adam Schindler and Brian Netto, the film is crafted to keep audiences on the edge of their seats.

Asbille’s portrayal of Iris is filled with raw intensity, capturing the emotional and physical struggle of someone forced to fight through unimaginable circumstances.

Opposite her is Finn Wittrock, who plays the chilling role of Richard, the stranger responsible for her predicament.

Fans have taken to social media to share their reactions.

One viewer writes: “A really good thriller!! Edge of your seat kind of thriller.”

“One and a half hours of pure suspense and tension,” a third confirms.

Somebody else comments: “Prepare yourself for an intense one if you plan to watch from the beginning until the end. Whew, terrifying.”

Don’t Move, with a commendable 71% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes, is beyond just a standard thriller; it’s a relentless survival game that captures both the desperation of its main character and the heart-stopping fear that the audience experiences alongside her.
