Popular Netflix thriller tops charts with 48 million views despite being a tense and stressful watch.
Netflix has once again captivated its audience with a gripping new psychological thriller, Don't Move. The film has not only reached new heights in streaming numbers, but has also held the number one spot on the global film charts for two consecutive weeks with a whopping 28 million views. Last week alone, it garnered 20.2 million views, bringing its total views to a staggering 48.2 million according to Netflix's data. The streaming giant calculates views by dividing the total number of hours watched by the length of the film.

Directed by Brian Netto and Adam Schindler, Don't Move stars Kelsey Asbille as a young woman who finds herself in a fight for her life when she crosses paths with a serial killer. Injected with a paralytic agent, Iris must use her wits to outsmart the killer and escape before her body shuts down completely. But in a deadly wilderness with miles of treacherous terrain and dangerous creatures, Iris is not only at risk of being murdered, but also at risk of the elements.

Meanwhile, the killer, Richard, is relentless in his pursuit of Iris and will stop at nothing to capture his prey. But how can Iris fight back when she is unable to move? This thrilling concept has not only beaten out Netflix's other YA thriller, Time Cut, but has also garnered praise from viewers despite its dark and terrifying nature.

Many viewers took to social media to share their reactions, with some admitting to being on the edge of their seats and others warning those with anxiety to proceed with caution. The film's success is not surprising, given that it was produced by horror legend Sam Raimi, known for his work on the Spider-Man trilogy and the gore-filled Evil Dead trilogy.

In addition to his own directing work, Raimi has also produced other horror films such as Crawl and 65, as well as the action film Boy Kills World. Director Adam Schindler raved about Raimi's involvement in the film, stating that he provided the best script-to-screen notes they had ever received and was heavily involved in the process.

But Don't Move not only delivers scares, it also sparks discussions about a hypothetical scenario that gained popularity on social media earlier this year: would you rather be alone in the woods with a man or a bear? The film's relentless antagonist, Richard, exemplifies why many women would choose the bear.

As the film continues to top Netflix's charts and garner praise from viewers, it's clear that Don't Move is a must-watch for those looking for a thrilling and thought-provoking experience.
