BingeNext's take

If you’re in the mood for a tense, twisty thriller that keeps you guessing, Identity is a solid pick. Set at a remote desert motel during a fierce storm, the film throws a group of strangers together, only to have them picked off one by one by a mysterious killer. The suspense builds as the characters, played by familiar faces like John Cusack and Ray Liotta, start suspecting each other, creating a claustrophobic and intense atmosphere. It’s perfect for fans of classic mystery thrillers who enjoy piecing together clues alongside the characters. At just 90 minutes, it’s a tight, gripping watch that feels like a puzzle you can’t put down until the very end. If you liked movies like Memento or Psycho, this one will definitely keep you on the edge of your seat.
