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

One of the main cast members of The Office wrote, directed and starred in the film.

Novak stars in the movie as well, playing a New York journalist and podcaster named Ben who travels to Texas to attend the funeral of Abby, a woman with whom he had a casual romantic fling.

While there, Abby's brother, Ty (Boyd Holbrook, A Complete Unknown), tells Ben that he suspects his sister - who everyone believes died of a drug overdose - was murdered.

Though Ben is doubtful, he agrees to help Ty find out the truth of what happened - with the journalist thinking the quest would make for an interesting podcast about grief and denial.

As the pair investigate, Ben starts to suspect Ty's suspicions may be correct.

Novak's feature directorial debut, Vengeance also stars Ashton Kutcher (The Butterfly Effect), Issa Rae (Barbie) and J. Smith Cameron (Succession).

Garnering an 82% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, the film is definitely worth seeking out for its ingenious premise, its sharp comedy and its deeper themes about division in America and the morality of making true crime shows.

Vengeance is airing on TV tonight on Film4 at 9pm. It should also be available to stream on Channel 4's website after it airs.
