Synopsis
The Fear Index (2022) is a British psychological thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by David Caffrey and starring Josh Hartnett, the four-part series adapts Robert Harris's 2011 novel of the same name.
Dr. Alex Hoffman is an American physicist working in Geneva, the mind behind VIXAL-4 — an AI trading system built to read fear signals in financial markets and execute trades at machine speed. On the day of its live launch, someone who knows every security code in his house walks through the front door. From that point, Alex's grip on what is real starts to fracture: flashback memories break through the present, paranoid visions crowd out facts, and everyone around him — business partner, wife, colleagues — becomes a possible suspect.
Shot on location in Geneva, the show sits between financial thriller and psychological horror. Josh Hartnett carries most of it alone — this is precisely the kind of role where an actor either convinces you or the whole thing collapses — and he convinces.
