When Netflix first dropped the trailer for Society of the Snow in November last year, we were instantly gripped by the stunning scenery of the Andes mountain range, and it seems we weren't alone. The survival thriller has become an instant hit on the best streaming service, with more than 28 million views since it was released on January 4.
It has become the most watched non-English film on Netflix this week, and has been in the top 10 for two weeks in a row. It's the terrifying true story of the infamous Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 plane crash that occurred in late 1972, which also inspired the 1993 movie Alive and 2021 Showtime series Yellowjackets.
