Netflix just got one of the most intense survival thrillers I’ve ever watched — and it’s based on a true story

Netflix has just added “Everest” to its U.S. library, and if you haven’t seen this gripping survival thriller yet, now is the perfect time.

Released in 2015, “Everest” tells the harrowing true story of the disaster that occurred on Mount Everest in 1996, where a group of climbers faced a brutal storm near the summit. It’s a visually impressive, emotionally intense, and deeply human movie that has somehow flown under the radar in recent years.

If you love gripping thrillers that have you holding your breath and reaching for tissues (especially ones based on real-life events) then “Everest” is a must-watch. It’s one of the most intense and emotionally devastating movies I’ve ever seen, and the fact that it’s based on a true story makes it all the more haunting.
