One of the very best thriller movies of the past 10 years is on TV tonight

Holding a 98% Rotten Tomatoes score, the film even got a starry Netflix remake.

Co-written and directed by Gustav Möller (Sons), the film follows Asger (Jakob Cedergren, Submarino), a Copenhagen police officer temporarily assigned to answer emergency calls. This is as he is being investigated for a deadly on-duty shooting incident.

In the course of his new job, Asger answers a call from a panicked woman (Jessica Dinnage, Netflix's The Rain) who claims to have been kidnapped.

"Confined to the police station and with the phone as his only tool, Asger races against time to get help and find her," the plot synopsis reads.

Unfolding entirely within the confines of the emergency call centre, The Guilty is perfect proof that a director doesn't need a big budget to make an incredibly exciting movie. This is so long as they have a great cast and story.

A mean-and-lean thriller with a sting in its tail, The Guilty holds a whopping 98% score on Rotten Tomatoes and even got a US remake on Netflix with Jake Gyllenhaal in the lead role.

The Guilty is airing on TV tonight/tomorrow morning on Film4 at 2.15am. It will also be available to stream on Channel 4's website after it airs.
