Note: All scores were current on the date of publication and are subject to change.

"Gone for Good" (2021)

Rotten Tomatoes score: None available.

Synopsis: "Ten years after losing the two people he loved most, a man finds himself plunged into another dizzying mystery when his girlfriend suddenly vanishes."

Critics' consensus: "For now, it's so far, so good, from the solid performances of Oldfield and Harzoune to a story that gets really interesting, really quickly." (Decider)

"Hold Tight" (2022)

Rotten Tomatoes score: None available.

Synopsis: "When a young man goes missing soon after his friend dies, life in a tight-knit, affluent Warsaw suburb slowly unravels, laying bare secrets and lies."

Critics' consensus: "I can't highly recommend 'Hold Tight,' but it does offer a moderately entertaining diversion because of its foreign pedigree." (KDHX)

"Safe" (2018)

Rotten Tomatoes score: 71%

Synopsis: "Tom has struggled to raise his two daughters alone following his wife's death a year ago. Things seem to be on the right track for the family, who live in a gated community, because they have close friends nearby and Tom is in the early stages of a new relationship. But the situation takes a turn for the worse when Jenny, Tom's oldest daughter, goes missing along with her boyfriend."

Critics' consensus: "'Safe' boasts a superb cast — albeit with some questionable accents — who carry its soapy, mystery-laden drama just well enough to offer an entertaining diversion."

"Fool Me Once" (2024)

Rotten Tomatoes score: 75%

Synopsis: "After her husband is brutally murdered, Maya spots someone on the nanny cam she has installed to keep an eye on her young daughter — someone who is supposed to be dead."

Critics' consensus: "If Lumley doesn't quite act Keegan off-screen, she is nonetheless fantastically formidable. Throw in a plot that moves like a slinky on steroids and you have a post-Christmas thriller to cherish." (Daily Telegraph)

"The Stranger" (2020)

Rotten Tomatoes score: 83%

Synopsis: "A web of secrets sends family man Adam Price on a desperate quest to discover the truth about the people closest to him."

Critics' consensus: "If not quite as addicting as its source material, 'The Stranger' has a strong cast and enough tension to keep viewers on the edge of their seats."

"The Woods" (2020)

Rotten Tomatoes score: 89%

Synopsis: "In Warsaw, a prosecutor's hopes rise after a body is found and linked to his sister's disappearance 25 years earlier."

Critics' consensus: "'The Woods' is another solid showing, complete with good performances and an intriguing mystery, but there's a lack of artistic ambition here that keeps it from elevating to the higher tiers of the genre." (Radio Times)

"Stay Close" (2021)

Rotten Tomatoes score: 92%

Synopsis: "The lives of a photojournalist, a soccer mom, and a homicide detective are impacted by a terrible event from the past."

Critics' consensus: "'Stay Close' benefits from fine performances and a story that gives just enough clues in the first episode to keep viewers intrigued and — more importantly — not frustrated with purposely obtuse writing." (Decider)

"The Innocent" (2021)

Rotten Tomatoes score: 100%

Synopsis: "An accidental killing leads a man down a dark hole of intrigue and murder; just as he finds love and freedom, a phone call brings back the nightmare."

Critics' consensus: "Genre fans will be well-served here, and while eight episodes seem like one or two too many, the time will fly by and 'The Innocent' will almost certainly be another hit." (Ready Steady Cut)
