I Binged-Watched Netflix\u2019s New No. 1 Thriller Show \u2014 Here\u2019s Why You Need to Right Now<\/a><\/p>\n

‘The Beast in Me’ (2025)<\/p>\n

A recent Netflix thriller breakout is last fall’s The Beast in Me, a show that made you question who your neighbors really are. The series stars Claire Danes<\/strong><\/a> as reclusive author Aggie Wiggs, divorced and still reeling from the death of her young son. While struggling with a bout of writer’s block, her new neighbor, Nile Jarvis (Matthew Rhys<\/strong><\/a>), moves in next door \u2014 a man who just happens to have been the prime suspect in his wife’s murder. Striking up a coy cat-and-mouse relationship, Aggie eventually agrees to write her book about Nile while attempting to piece together the mystery of his wife’s disappearance.<\/p>\n

The Beast in Me is the perfect, bingeable thriller where the end of every episode leaves you wanting the next one, even when it might seem obvious where the mystery is going to go. Still, you can’t help but stay until the very end to see everything wrapped up nicely in a bow, and the series is littered with plenty of left turns, shocks and surprises to make you question your instincts. Ultimately, The Beast in Me is an acting showcase, with Rhys and Danes evoking some powerhouse chemistry, but Brittany Snow<\/strong> <\/a>as Nile’s second wife is also a true stand-out.<\/p>\n

‘The Perfect Couple’ (2024)<\/p>\n

Based on Elin Hilderbrand’s 2018 novel of the same name,\u00a0The Perfect Couple\u00a0begins with a murder at a wedding \u2014 how shocking. On the day that Amelia (Eve Hewson<\/strong>) is to be wed into the wealthy Winbury family of Nantucket, a body washes ashore before the ceremony begins, and suddenly, everyone in the wedding party is a suspect. As the investigation unravels, tensions flare, motives are revealed and family secrets are exposed, with the facade of perfection maintained by the Winburys assuredly crumbling.<\/p>\n

The Perfect Couple excels as a juicy whodunnit mystery with a stacked cast who are all in fine form. Led by Nicole Kidman,<\/strong> <\/a>the rest of the cast includes Liev Schreiber,<\/a> Dakota Fanning<\/a>, Meghann Fahy<\/a>, Sam Nivola<\/strong> and Isabella Adjani.<\/strong>\u00a0The Perfect Couple is the perfect comfort food thriller: beautiful locations, beautiful costumes, beautiful people and an airport novel mystery with enough twists to keep you hooked until the end. And, as ever, Kidman shines in her consistent typecast as an imperiled, privileged woman whose domestic bliss is anything but.<\/p>\n

‘Behind Her Eyes’ (2021)<\/p>\n

Who wants a psychological thriller with a little sci-fi twist? We certainly do.\u00a0Behind Her Eyes\u00a0is based on the novel of the same name by Sarah Pinborough and stars Simona Brown, Tom Bateman<\/strong> and, for the second time on this list, Eve Hewson. It centers on single mother Louise (Brown), who is drawn into a strange friendship with the enigmatic wife (Hewson) of the man she’s having an affair with (Bateman). However, things are not as they seem between the married couple, and Louise soon becomes wrapped up in their dark, twisted web that involves the paranormal.<\/p>\n

Alongside the aforementioned sci-fi aspect, Behind Her Eyes adds a healthy (and welcome) dash of eroticism to its thrills, and the show ends up an exceptional bit of pure escapist entertainment. Not to mention, it offers a little shake-up from your standard thriller fare \u2014 although, if you don’t like things getting a little too “out there,” then Behind Her Eyes\u00a0may prove to be a bridge too far. However, if you’re looking for something a bit different, you’ll certainly find it with this show, and it’s got plenty of unexpected plot turns to boot. Plus, who could say no to such an attractive cast?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Netflix’s new thriller series His & Hers has taken over the site’s top 10, currently sitting comfortably atthe…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":314271,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[265],"tags":[96293,18,117,23700,19,17,25255,42153,127,10420,152991,42457,73212,128],"class_list":{"0":"post-314270","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-claire-danes","9":"tag-eire","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-eve-hewson","12":"tag-ie","13":"tag-ireland","14":"tag-jon-bernthal","15":"tag-matthew-rhys","16":"tag-netflix","17":"tag-nicole-kidman","18":"tag-nile-jarvis","19":"tag-psychological-thriller","20":"tag-tessa-thompson","21":"tag-tv"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/115992995010551319","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/314270","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=314270"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/314270\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/314271"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=314270"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=314270"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=314270"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
