2026 ·1h 38m · ★ 6.7 (33)

A covert team of elite operatives are living in the shadows. When a ruthless despot steals a billion-dollar fortune, they're sent to take it back—an impossible heist that erupts into a deadly game of strategy, deception and survival.

Why it matters

A high-stakes blend of espionage and brutal survival horror that strips the glam from covert ops and drops you into a shadow war where trust is the deadliest commodity.

  • Brutal, grounded action scenes with practical effects that echo the visceral tension of 80s and 90s tactical thrillers meeting modern horror grit.
  • Fans of claustrophobic, team-based survival will appreciate its tight pacing and escalating paranoia, reminiscent of John Carpenter’s layered suspense.
  • Subverts the typical slick spy genre by leaning into grime and moral ambiguity, reflecting contemporary anxieties about power and control.
  • Not for those looking for supernatural scares—this is a pure, ruthless human conflict where the monsters wear suits and carry guns.
