The Vanishing
Spoorloos
When his girlfriend vanishes without a trace at a highway rest stop, a young man is consumed for years by the need to know what happened to her — an obsession the calm, methodical culprit is only too willing to satisfy. A chillingly clinical thriller.
Why it’s here
George Sluizer’s psychologically rigorous thriller is an international Dutch cult classic.
