In a new wave of thrillers about deadly game shows, Squid Game is the one that everyone is talking about. But Netflix has a lot of shows that are just as exciting and push the limits of survival game shows. Shinsuke Sato, who wrote and directed Kingdom and I Am a Hero, amazes Alice in Borderland with clever fights to the death.
