The Minute You Wake Up Dead

The Minute You Wake Up Dead (2022) is a crime thriller you can watch online on iFILM. In a sleepy southern town, stockbroker Russ and his neighbor cook up an insurance scam that looks like an easy payday. It isn't. Once other locals smell money, the plan curdles into a string of murders.

Trying to untangle it is Sheriff Thurmond Fowler, a man who has played everything by the book for forty years on the job. The harder he pulls at the threads, the clearer it gets that nearly everyone in town is hiding a stake and a lie. Cole Hauser plays the broker, Morgan Freeman the sheriff, with Jaimie Alexander and Darren Mann alongside them, all directed by Michael Mailer. The tagline says "don't trust a soul," and the film means it — the whole hook is who outplays whom. A small-scale mystery for anyone who likes watching greed slowly tighten the noose.
