One of the best thriller movies of recent years is on TV tonight

The deliriously fun modern classic will soon be getting a sequel.

In the film, Weaving plays Grace, a young bride who marries the man of her dreams (Mark O'Brien, Republic of Doyle) at his wealthy if dysfunctional family's luxurious estate.

"There's just one catch - she must now hide from midnight until dawn while her new in-laws hunt her down with guns, crossbows and other weapons," the plot synopsis reads.

"As Grace desperately tries to survive the night, she soon finds a way to turn the tables on her not-so-lovable relatives."

A box office hit upon release, the movie earned rave reviews from critics and currently holds an 89% Rotten Tomatoes score.

In particular, its clever and darkly funny screenplay, its claustrophobic mansion setting, its immensely likeable lead turn from Weaving and its fun supporting cast were singled out for praise.

The film was such a success in fact that a sequel was recently greenlit.

Ready or Not is airing on TV tonight on Film4 at 11.55pm. It is also streaming on Netflix and Disney+ in Ireland and the UK right now.
