Our TV movie pick for tonight (Tuesday, 9 July) is Assassination Nation, the 2018 dark comedy thriller movie from writer-director Sam Levinson (Euphoria, The Idol, Malcolm and Marie).
The film revolves around four teenage friends (Abra, Hari Nef, Odessa Young and Suki Waterhouse) whose American town of Salem devolves into chaos and violence after a computer hacker leaks the personal secrets of many of its residents.
Released to positive reviews a year before Euphoria premiered, Assassination Nation sees Levinson applying his now trademark style and satirical edge to a twisted thriller, resulting in a fresh take on the genre.
And for fans of the Zendaya-led series, the thriller features the hit drama’s cast members Colman Domingo, Lukas Gage, Maude Apatow – alongside Bella Thorne, Bill Skarsgård, Danny Ramirez, Joel McHale and Kelvin Harrison Jr.
Though not a hit at the box office, Assassination Nation is airing tonight/tomorrow morning on Channel 4 at 1am – giving people a chance to finally check it out.
If that is too late for you or you can’t record the movie, it is also available to stream on Netflix.
