HBOMax is going through a lot of changes at the moment. However, their list of genre offerings is still pretty spectacular. They have possibly the most unique mix of movies for horror fiends of any popular streamer. This is why their charts are always a pleasant surprise. Their  #1 thriller this week is Knowing.

In the film, M.I.T. professor John Koestler links a mysterious list of numbers from a time capsule to past and future disasters and sets out to prevent the ultimate catastrophe.

We are always happy for an excuse to get an extra dose of the Cagester. Who needs coffee when Nick is out there keeping us on our toes and making us feel alive? 

It also seems like a perfectly good apocalypse film to distract us from everything else. If this movie slipped under your radar, check out the trailer below.
