Climax
2018 · TMDB 7.0
Directed by Gaspar Noé
When a dance troupe is lured to an empty school, a bowl of drug-laced sangria causes their jubilant rehearsal to descend into a dark and explosive nightmare as they try to survive the night—and find who's responsible—before it's too late.
Why it matters
A troupe of dancers celebrates the end of rehearsals in a remote school, but their party spirals into a nightmare of paranoia and violence. Gaspar Noé's film opens with an ecstatic, unbroken dance sequence, then watches the rhythm break.
