“Nerve-rattlingly tense” mystery thriller that will “leave you wrecked” is trending on UK streamer

The intriguing mystery-thriller titled “Sharp Corner” has become popular on the UK streaming platform NOW, following its recent addition.

I’m thrilled to share that the movie I adore, which had its grand debut at the Toronto International Film Festival last year, is now accessible in the UK! It’s available through Sky and NOW, and right now, it’s holding the 5th spot among the most-watched films on their platform. Can’t wait to see how many more people will fall in love with this masterpiece!

Featuring actors Ben Foster from X-Men: The Last Stand and Cobie Smulders known for her roles in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the movie tells the story of an individual residing close to a spot where numerous deadly car crashes occur regularly.

As his fixation on mortality and a compulsion to rescue others grows, his wife becomes increasingly concerned about their family’s well-being.

On Rotten Tomatoes, Sharp Corner has a very strong critic score of 93% positive from 45 reviews.

Here’s what some of them have said:

Mashable

Foster and Smulders brilliantly develop an intriguing idea, resulting in a chilling psychological thriller and a heartrending family drama. The experience is so intense it’s likely to leave you emotionally drained.

“This is a quiet classic. Every choice is just right.”

Variety

In the capable hands of Buxton and writer/director Jason Foster, the character Josh becomes a profound exploration of modern masculinity. This is a growing tale of disquiet, shedding light on the extreme measures men with ordinary lives might take, in search of feeling essential and valued.

The Guardian

Although Buxton’s work may appear direct at times and some transitions seem hastily made, he effectively maintains our engagement throughout.

Sharp Corner is available to stream now via Sky and NOW.

The latest print edition from Digital Spy, titled “Oasis – Live in ’25,” is available now! You can purchase it at your local newsstands or online for only £8.99.
