Netflix’s wild new thriller movie will leave your heart pounding

If you wish your protagonists in movies to be chased, hunted, poisoned and besieged by bad guys, Netflix had you plenty covered thereon front with its Friday film releases. Indeed, two big new movies the streamer released — Kate, starring Mary Elizabeth Winstead, also as a German thriller, the Netflix movie Prey — will have viewers rooting for protagonists who get put through the ringer, then some.

In the case of the previous , the top seems preordained. No spoilers, but Netflix makes one thing pretty clear within the promotion . That the titular hero during this one is an assassin who the bad guys have poisoned. Which sends her on a revenge rampage over her very imminent death. Meanwhile, Prey similarly strips everything right down to the existential minimum, to the purpose where you’ve got a gaggle of friends on a hike. There’s a mysterious shooter. And this shooter has decided that the buddies are — what else? You guessed it. It’s right there within the title.

“On his stag party weekend, Roman, his brother Albert and their friends continue a hiking trip into the wild,” the Netflix synopsis explains. “When the group hear gunshots nearby, they attribute them to hunters within the woods.”

They soon realize, however, that for a few reason this shooter is that the hunter. And they’ve become the unwitting prey, during a desperate race for survival.

Netflix, we should always add, has had many success with German content already. Indeed, there are people that will tell you that Dark, which was Netflix’s first German TV series and debuted back in 2017, is one among the simplest shows they’ve ever seen. Which features a pretty complex time travel element to its narrative. It’s one which will emotionally wreck viewers patient enough to stay with this mentally demanding series.

On the movie front, Blood Red Sky was also pretty buzzy upon its Netflix debut. This German feature may be a gory horror thriller. It involves a mother protecting her son on a hijacked plane by turning into a literal monster. “A woman with a mysterious illness is forced into action when a gaggle of terrorists attempts to hijack a transatlantic overnight flight,” Netflix’s official Blood Red Sky synopsis reads. “In order to guard her son, she is going to need to reveal a dark secret, and unleash the vampire within that she fought to cover .”

More Prey details
In terms of the new Prey movie on Netflix, Thomas Sieben is that the writer and director. The mostly German cast includes David Kross, Hanno Koffler, Maria Ehrich, Yung Ngo, and Livia Matthes, among others.

User reaction and reviews are still trickling in. Rotten Tomatoes, as of the time of this writing, doesn’t have enough data to assign critics and audience scores yet. On IMDb, however, the movie currently features a 4.5/10 weighted average, supported input from a touch quite 500 IMDb users.
