Our TV movie pick for tonight (Monday, 27 October) is Barbarian, the brilliant 2022 horror thriller from writer-director Zach Cregger (Weapons).
The film begins with Tess (Georgina Campbell, Bird Box Barcelona) checking into an Airbnb in Detroit the evening before a job interview, only to find it's been double-booked.
Hitting it off with the other renter, Keith (Bill Skarsgård, IT), he suggests they both share the space.
A string of strange occurrences, however, leads Tess to doubt whether Keith is as kind as he seems.
To reveal any more would do viewers a disservice because Barbarian's terrifically dark and twisty plot is the main reason to seek out the movie, along with its great performances (also including Dodgeball's Justin Long), its string of nerve-shreddingly tense sequences and its moments of laugh-out-loud black comedy.
Holding a 92% score on Rotten Tomatoes, Barbarian is airing on TV tonight on Film4 at 1.40am.
