Mark Jenkin's analogue Cornish folk sci-fi is a near-unanimous 99% critic triumph — George MacKay and Callum Turner lend star gravity to a time-slip mystery Empire ranked among the year's finest UK theatricals.
In a derelict Cornish fishing village, the Rose of Nevada — a boat lost at sea thirty years ago with all hands — mysteriously reappears in the harbour. George MacKay and Callum Turner join a new crew hoping to restore the town's luck, but after a successful voyage they return to find themselves thirty years in the past, mistaken for the men who vanished. Mark Jenkin writes, shoots, edits, scores, and sound-designs this analogue folk sci-fi with the same handmade grain as Bait and Enys Men — image and dialect over exposition, patience as craft.
A 91% Tomatometer winter horror that Empire and genre critics call the franchise's most ambitious swing — Ralph Fiennes anchors Nia DaCosta's colder, more mythic register even as audiences find it less immediately accessible than the original sprint.
Decades after the rage virus reshaped Britain, a new chapter unfolds in a landscape where faith, violence, and survival have fused into something stranger than the infected themselves. Alex Garland and Nia DaCosta expand the franchise with a winter-set horror fable that trades sprinting zombies for ritual dread, following a fractured family drawn toward a mysterious bone temple on the Scottish coast.
