Previous Episode: Replicas - Movie Review

Join Chris as he analyzes & reviews The Vanishing, the 2019 mystery/drama movie, directed by Kristoffer Nyholm & starring Gerard Butler.

Three lighthouse keepers on the remote Flannan Isles find a hidden trunk of gold, leading to their mysterious disappearance..
Pretty inviting premise for a thriller movie based on a real event, right?

Most importantly, did the ending deliver?
