13 Upcoming Netflix Original Movies You Must Watch

The Buzz: The Raid director Gareth Evans takes a break from martial arts insanity for this thriller about a man (Dan Stevens) attempting to rescue his sister (Lucy Boynton), who has been kidnapped by a religious cult.

Michael Sheen also co-stars (probably as the creepy cult leader) in what seems like an interesting change-up of Evans' filmmaking style to date, opting for more sinister thrills rather than those of the bone-cracking variety.

To see such a talented young filmmaker embracing Netflix is extremely encouraging, and considering the fairly modest theatrical financial success of The Raid movies, could this lead to The Raid 3 going straight-to-streaming?
