Netflix’s action-thriller Apex looks like a pure horror movie

The first trailer for Netflix’s upcoming movie Apex arrived Wednesday, and it looks intense — a riff on the endlessly adapted short storyThe Most Dangerous Game, where a predatory, amoral person hunts human prey through the wilds for sport. Charlize Theron is the prey here, a thrill-seeker named Sasha who’s heading for a challenging whitewater rafting site when a stranger (Taron Egerton, from the Kingsman movies) steals her gear, offers her a head start, and starts hunting her down.
