Our take

This adult psychological thriller carries an MA 15+ rating for bloody violence, sexual assault, sexual content, nudity and language. Steamy affair scenes, a rape flashback, imprisonment, stabbings and psychological cruelty unfold inside a wealthy household. Strictly for mature viewers rather than teens looking for a glossy romance.

Story (may spoil tone)

Trying to escape her past, Millie Calloway accepts a job as a live-in housemaid for the wealthy Nina and Andrew Winchester. But what begins as a dream job quickly unravels into something far more dangerous—a sexy, seductive game of secrets, scandal, and power.
