In our pick for this evening, a young woman (Chloë Grace Moretz) befriends a lonely widow who's harboring a dark and deadly agenda (Isabelle Huppert) toward her.
Directed by Ireland's own Neil Jordan (Michael Collins) and partly shot in Dublin, Greta works as a very fun throwback to stylish '80s and '90s thrillers like Fatal Attraction and Single White Female.
On top of this, it's also a great showcase for legendary French actress Isabelle Huppert, who manages to make her villain somehow funny, terrifying and human all at once.
