For a gourmand, once-in-a-lifetime destination dining experience, remote Hawthorn Island is the peak of exclusive eats. Celebrities and billionaires come to savour the delights of legendary head chef Slowik (Ralph Fiennes) who painstakingly creates a unique gastronomic experience at a mere $1,250 a head.

As courses are prepared and presented with maximum theatricality, most of the diners are in jaw-dropping awe, apart from a bemused Margo (Anya Taylor-Joy), the last-minute replacement date of obsessive foodie Tyler (Nicholas Hoult). Among the other guests on this fateful night are a washed-up movie star (John Leguizamo) and a restaurant critic (Janet McTeer). With each intriguing new dish in Slowik’s menu, the night becomes stranger and more terrifying as these one-percenters discover they may soon be served their just deserts.

A sinister, satirical foodie thriller buoyed by pitch-perfect performances, The Menu is one film you’ll want to savour.
