Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg headlined this action thriller that was released in theaters a decade (!) ago. The movie follows a DEA agent and an undercover Naval Intelligence officer investigating each other and eventually having to team up.
In a glowing review around the time of release, the Epoch Times gave it a four-star review saying the movie is as if “Lethal Weapon and Midnight Run were billiard balls, Kormkur’s directing is the cue ball hitting those two and smacking ‘2 Guns’ straight in the corner pocket.”

As you may have found out, some of the international horrors on Netflix are some of the scariest. One such movie we haven’t even dared to complete is The Womb (also known as Inang).
Released on the festival circuit last year, this small indie-horror is about a woman grappling with a woman who has an unplanned pregnancy and makes a desperate turn for help.
In their review, the small outlet Scariest Things gave the movie a four and a half stars out of five, saying it was filled with “pregnancy paranoia, unnerving set pieces, occult oddness, and plenty of surprises, the superbly acted and beautifully shot.”

Director: Shawn Rech
Cast: Richard Wershe Jr., Scott M. Burnstein, Dana Hathaway
