Netflix's New Horror Movie Racks Up Over 48 Million Views As Fans Rave

A new horror-thriller that has viewers saying it makes them "want to scream" due to its "heart-pounding" intensity has just landed on Netflix.

If you're looking for something to help you escape the early panic of holiday decorations going up, from Christmas lights and trees to wreaths on doors, and thinking, "But it's only early November?!" then this new Netflix thriller has arrived just in time.

In its debut week from October 21 to October 27, the movie scored over 20.2 million views, and by the second week, October 28 to November 3, it had added another impressive 28 million.

For those of you who were more into film and drama than math—totally understandable if you're reading this—that’s a massive total of 48.2 million views in just two weeks.

The movie even held Netflix's Top 10 spot for a week before moving to second place in its second week.

The storyline sounds like a nightmare for many: a woman lost in a forest, not stumbling across a harmless animal but encountering a man instead—a bear might've been the better option. 

Yes, over 48 million views across two weeks Netflix

She’s drugged, forced to run, and has to hide as the paralysis sets in, leaving her desperately fighting for survival.

This intense film, titled Don't Move, was written by TJ Cimfel and David White and directed by Adam Schindler and Brian Netto.

It stars Kelsey Asbille (known from One Tree Hill), along with Finn Wittrock (American Horror Story), Moray Treadwell (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest), and Daniel Francis (Stay Close).

Fans on social media have called the film "heart-pounding," and it’s quickly becoming a must-watch.

Despite a modest Rotten Tomatoes Popcornmeter score of 38 percent, the movie has managed a respectable Tomatometer score of 72 percent.

Clearly, even with mixed reviews, audiences are tuning in, with over 40 million views in just the first two weeks.

Viewers have called the film 'heart pounding' Netflix

Fans of the thriller have also taken to social media to share their love for the film.

One Twitter user raved: "If you're a fan of Thriller Movies. Go and watch this movie on Netflix 'Don't Move'. Sick, injury detailed, heart pounding & crazy scenes and you just want to scream. Omo one of the cr@ziest movie I've seen this year!"

Another chimed in with: "Don't Move on Netflix is too good."

One more added: "Y'all gotta watch Don't Move on Netflix."

Yet another posted: "Stressing myself out watching "don’t move" on Netflix."

And finally, one fan concluded: "That movie gives the same vibe as trying to fight in a dream."
