Netflix has been disappointing this Halloween season with its Halloween offerings. Besides Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities, none of their horror specials seem to work. But here’s a relief for the platform in the form of a Polish film. If you’re in a mood to watch a horror thriller revolving around cults and clergies, Binged is here with a recommendation this weekend. This latest 2022 Polish film ‘Hellhole’ is a horror thriller set in a Polish monastery in 1987.

In 1957, in a Polish Church, a father is about to sacrifice a toddler.

One day, a young policeman Marek comes to the convent disguising as a clergyman. He penetrates monastic life and tries to find out reasoning for the mysterious disappearances of several tormented inmates.
