If you’re in the mood for an edge-of-your-seat thriller, The Abyss might be your next must-watch. Inspired by real events, this action-packed film has viewers gripped — with one fan saying, “This had me on the edge of my seat!” Another agreed: “Kept me biting my nails the whole time.”

Directed by Richard Holm and released in 2023, The Abyss unfolds in Kiruna, Sweden — a real city facing a terrifying disaster. After a massive rock burst threatens to swallow the town, security manager Frigga (played by Tuva Novotny) must lead a desperate effort to save lives.

The story is loosely based on a 4.8-magnitude earthquake that shook Kiruna four years ago, though the film amps up the danger for dramatic effect.

With strong performances, real-world tension, and intense pacing, The Abyss is a disaster thriller that’s both terrifying and totally binge-worthy.
