Viewers are going crazy for a Netflix original thriller which has a twist ending that comes out of nowhere.
A mini-series so good that fans have struggled to find anything like it since.
Now that is one hell of a compliment.
The Netflix Bangers group regularly has members discussing some of the best things to watch on the streaming giant.

Some of the members pitch films and shows so terrible that they are enjoyable or simply things to just stick on for a fun hungover watch.
But right now, they can’t stop praising the psychological thriller mini-series Behind Her Eyes, most notably for an ending they just didn’t see coming.
The series is based on the novel of the same name by Sarah Pinborough and was published in 2017.
The basic premise is single mum, Louise, works in psychiatrist's office and begins an affair with her boss, who is married.
She then forms an unlikely friendship with his wife and things start to take a turn as their lives ultimately become tangled and overlap.
One impressed viewer wrote: “OH MY GOD THE PLOT TWIST. PLEASE FINISH. PLEASE YOU WON'T REGRET IT. I watched it years ago and will never get over the twist."
“This is the best I ever watched. Couldn't find anything like that after watching this. Still struggling.” commented another.
“I never slept for nights after it. Nothing has ever done that to me! Definitely keep watching it!” a third chimed in.
While others did still doll out the praise, some did admit that it can feel a little bit dry at first. However, the majority insist you finish the 6 episode series.
“Yes it’s a little meh at first and it gets better! Upset that it was a limited series though because the ending is insane lol,” one person said.
“I found it soooo slow and them bam the last episode left me like stick it out if you can,” another said.
“Watch all the episodes. It is good. Specially the end. I felt same when I was on 3/4 episodes but as I saw many good reviews here, I finished it. N for many days I was thinking about this series only,” added another.
The mini-series has fared well on IMDB and has a rating of 7.2/10 after 74,000 reviews.
However, on Rotten Tomatoes, it didn’t hold up as well and only has a score of 63% on the tomatometer. The average audience score, is a little lower at 58 percent.
Make of that what you will but probably best to give it a watch and decide for yourself.
