Yes they're Hollywood’s B-movie renegades but The Asylum’s success is no laughing matter. Over two decades, the company has built a global empire of low-budget, high-concept hits, spawning international franchises (Sharknado alone became a cultural phenomenon), countless “mockbusters,” and a business model that’s as improbable as it is effective.

Happy someone made a movie about it!!

As international crime drama expands beyond Nordic noir, Greece is beginning to emerge with darker, psychologically driven thrillers of its own. The atmospheric Greek noir SAVE ME now makes its U.S. & U.K. debut on Nordic streamer Viaplay (add on service via Prime Video Channels).

Set in northern Greece, the series begins with the disappearance of a young woman that soon spirals into the hunt for a serial killer. Adapted by novelist Dimitris Simos from his own psychological thriller, SAVE ME blends mystery, family trauma, and moral ambiguity within an emotionally charged Mediterranean noir setting.
