Netflix adds 'unsettling' horror film that you 'can't easily forget' after watching

Netflix has added a title that horror fans will be sure to love, as viewers have called it the 'cinema of nightmares'.

If you've been getting bored of horror films and TV series on streaming platforms recently, this 2023 horror sci-fi flick might be the answer to your problems.

Directed by Brandon Cronenberg, best known for being at the helm of 2020 film Possessor, the Canadian filmmaker is back with another mind-bending watch.

Starring the likes of Alexander Skarsgård, Mia Goth and Cleopatra Coleman among others, it's one for the true horror fans.

While it cracked around $5.2 million (£4.2 million) at the box office, it was given a generous 87 percent on Rotten Tomatoes' Tomatometer.

Titled Infinity Pool, the story follows a couple that are enjoying themselves while on an all-inclusive holiday, before they are led away from the resort by an odd woman.

Just like that, the fun holiday becomes a horrific nightmare as they start to experience more violent elements of the resort.

All stemming from a horrific incident that happened on the island, the characters must now face death for their actions.

Goth is best known for her role in the X horror film series, while Skarsgard and Coleman play the married couple.

It's a psychological trip, one that Cronenberg has become known for in his R-rated films, which can also feature elements of a thriller and deeper themes such as class inequality and morality.

And now, it's available to watch on Netflix - if it takes your fancy.

But don't just take my word for it, as fans have left reviews of the film on Rotten Tomatoes.

One said: "This is a really cool and original story that made me feel like I was trapped in a time loop."

Another wrote: "It's most definitely not for those of weak constitutions - or faint hearts - but it's also not a movie, once seen, you can easily forget."

A third user explained: "Cronenberg is now going all-in for the cinema of nightmares, with a film that gets under the skin and itches, invades the brain and plays havoc with the synapses."

Someone else thought: "There are movies that leave you wondering what exactly you watched and may even be unsettling. Enter, Infinity Pool."

While a final viewer added: "I had to watch this movie twice (the 2nd time stoned) before I realized the magic of it. It’s a philosophical film. Exploring what depths of evil that humans could stoop to if no consequences for their actions and if they had plenty of wealth."

Infinity Pool is now available to stream on Netflix.
