A must-watch…

We were all crying out for some good news and Netflix has come to the rescue.

No, it’s not an update on Tiger King 2.0.

It’s even better than that.

On 26 October – that’s THIS Bank Holiday Monday, calendar fans – Netflix will add the excellent Irish thriller Calm With Horses to its streaming service.

Produced by Michael Fassbender with Element Pictures, Calm With Horses stars the always-super Barry Keoghan, rising star Cosmo Jarvis, and two-time IFTA winner Niamh Algar, in a trio of terrific performances, as it delves deep into the dark and murky gangster world of rural Ireland.

With its incredibly short cinematic release unfortunately hampered by the bastard of a pandemic earlier in 2020, this is now your chance to see one of the most tense and impressive Irish films in years.
