Thriller on Apple TV Plus arrives, boasting a vicious antagonist presumably making it the most malevolent of the year
In the realm of thrillers, "Echo Valley" has made a significant impact since its release on Apple TV Plus on June 11, 2025. Directed by Michael Pearce, known for his previous works "Beast" (2017) and "Encounter" (2021), the movie offers a compelling viewing experience filled with twists and turns.
Set on an isolated ranch, the movie stars Julianne Moore as Kate, a woman who is struggling to cope with the death of her partner and the running of her farm. Her routine of waking up every morning and trying to recover from yet another night of restless dreams with her deep breathing routine suggests a sense of hopelessness.
Kate's life takes a dramatic turn when her daughter, Claire (played by Sydney Sweeney), visits her and asks for a loan to help her boyfriend with a drug debt. Despite knowing she should refuse, Kate gives Claire the loan, which leads to further complications.
Domhnall Gleeson delivers a standout performance as the calculating villain in "Echo Valley". His portrayal is his most cold-blooded and manipulative role to date, and his appearance in the movie is different, with lank hair and cold eyes. Gleeson's character, unpredictable and catchy, will leave viewers off-guard.
Claire returns with a body wrapped in plastic, and an explanation that does not quite add up. Kate, finding herself in a precarious situation, disposes of the corpse, which leads to her facing down a drug dealer named Jackie, played by none other than Domhnall Gleeson.
"Echo Valley" combines melancholy, surprises, and genuine thrills to create a gripping thriller. The movie takes a familiar set-up and turns it upside down, encouraging the audience to question their assumptions. The performance of Domhnall Gleeson in "Echo Valley" is considered by many as the best thing he's ever done.
"Echo Valley" is now available on Apple TV Plus in both the US and UK, offering a thrilling experience for audiences worldwide. Don't miss out on this chilling tale of deception, revenge, and redemption.
