One of the best thriller movies of the decade is on TV tonight

It was the breakthrough film of a director, whose new movie in cinemas now is being called one of the best of the year.

The film begins with Tess (Georgina Campbell, Bird Box Barcelona) checking into an Airbnb in Detroit the evening before a job interview, only to find it has been double-booked.

Hitting it off with the other renter, Keith (Bill Skarsgård, IT), he suggests they both share the space.

A string of strange occurrences, however, leads Tess to doubt whether Keith is as kind as he seems.

To reveal any more would do readers a disservice because Barbarian's terrifically twisty, unpredictable and dark plot is the main reason to seek out the movie.

On top of this, though, the film boasts great performances (including from Dodgeball's Justin Long), a string of absolutely nerve-shreddingly tense sequences and moments of laugh-out-loud black comedy.

Plus, with Cregger's also brilliant horror thriller Weapons in cinemas now and being hailed as one of the best movies of the year, what better time to check out his breakthrough film?

Barbarian is airing on TV tonight on Film4 at 11.15pm.

It is also streaming on Netflix and will be available to watch on Channel 4's website from Sunday, 10 August.
