If Compliance hit the spot, these will too

Two things both keep coming back to: psychological thriller and police officer

Both are built on the same subject: a true story
The difference: Takes it somewhere less contemplative than Compliance does

The same mix in both: stillness, then tension
The difference: Leans harder into horror than Compliance does

Common ground: psychological thriller
The difference: Sits closer to mystery than Compliance does

Unsettling drama, and it commits to that
The difference: The critics' underdog of the pair

Thriller with a pulse of stillness, in both cases

Tense thriller in both cases
The difference: Trades the stillness of Compliance for an angle of its own

Both lean on unease more than on drama

Thriller built on tension, twice over

Drama built on stillness, twice over

The same preoccupation in both: disturbed
