Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director Danny J. Boyle has helmed over a dozen Lifetime-style thrillers since 2016, specializing in titles with 'Dearest,' 'Deadly,' or 'Killer' in them.
This continues the 2020s boom of 'hot young man held captive by deranged women' subgenre, flipping the classic 'misery' trope with a gender twist that somehow feels equally sleazy.
