Greek weird-wave titan Yorgos Lanthimos has opted for a slight change of tack with Bugonia. After two ambitious projects - the Oscar-winning Poor Things and the more coolly received feel-bad anthology Kinds of Kindness - the director offers a lean and mean thriller with more focus and momentum than any of his work since The Killing of a Sacred Deer.

I don't know about looking down on us, but one of my favourite people who has ever lived is Carl Sagan and I fell madly in love with his philosophy and science and how brilliant he is, the Oscar winner said. He very deeply believed [that] the idea that we're alone in this vast expansive universe not that we're being watched is a pretty narcissistic thing. So, yes, I'm coming out and saying it: I believe in aliens.
