If you loved The Holcroft Covenant, try Black Sunday

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

What Black Sunday is

Miami. January. A whirring helicopter blade. A former POW pilots it, haunted, toward a stadium packed with revelers. Across the city, an Israeli operative hunts the conspiracy's tendrils, each lead bloodier than the last. Frankenheimer's bleak vision feels ripped from next week's headlines.
