Netflix horror series Below gains popularity
For two weeks, the horror series Below has been available on the Netflix platform. This production, starring Josh Hartnett facing a mysterious sea creature, reached number one in 80 countries with a start of 17 million views in 4 days. Actor considers returning for a second season
The actor was reportedly willing to participate in a second season, despite the ending being judged slightly disappointing by viewers. And as Halloween approaches, here are three other horror series, revealed in recent years, to discover on the platform. Psychological thriller A Very Bad Feeling
A Very Bad Feeling is the most addictive horror series on the platform. If Stranger Things has been viewed and rewatched on the platform throughout its five seasons, another creation by the Duffer brothers also deserves the attention of viewers. Isolation and family curse in A Very Bad Feeling
In A Very Bad Feeling, the charming Rachel (Camila Morrone) agrees to meet for the first time the wealthy family of her beloved Nicky (Adam DiMarco) in their house in the woods. A large chalet where the couple can also celebrate their wedding, under the watchful eye of the mother (Jennifer Jason Leigh) and the sister (Gus Birney) of the groom. Zombie series Black Summer ends on a brutal note
Black Summer is the most terrifying horror series on the platform. What a shame that this zombie series did not get a third season! It was in 2019 that Netflix revealed the first eight episodes of Black Summer, and everything started like a classic of the genre: populations were forced to leave their homes, supervised by the army, following a health alert. Survival and violence in Black Summer
Obviously, nothing went as planned and Rose (Jaime King), the main character of the series, was separated from her daughter Anna. Survival was then added to her almost impossible quest to find her child, while every enclosed space appeared as a refuge against the infected humans, who transformed in record time: a high school, a diner, ventilation ducts... South Korean series Hellbound explores radicalization
Hellbound is the most disturbing horror series on the platform. After the international success of Squid Game, Netflix bet on another series from South Korea: Hellbound. Nothing to do with a survival game, even though death had a central place in this new production: the series, created by Yeon Sang-ho, who is known for the unforgettable Train to Busan, was adapted from a successful webtoon. Apocalyptic themes in Hellbound
One day, terrible creatures falling from the sky appear in Seoul to announce the date and time of death to individuals of all genders and ages. Nothing surprising for the members of a cult named The New Truth: they have been repeating for years that all sinners will go to hell, "struck down" by enforcers. The brutal deaths of the concerned characters allow them to gather a large number of new disciples, while these attacks become a big spectacle for the population.
