Horror movies

Horror TV series From, even as it enters its third season, is wildly unknown. It doesn’t help that this show that no one’s heard of—that shares writers, directors and a lot of influence with Lost—is on a streaming network that no one’s heard of. Literally everyone I’ve recommended watch this terrifying show didn’t know there even was an MGM+, let alone that it made original TV. So, yes, there’s an MGM+ (it used to be Epix, but changed its name when no one was looking or caring), and yes, there’s a Lost-ish horror show on it called From, and yes, it’s been one of the best things on TV in the last three years.

There is no better way of convincing you to watch the frightening and engrossing From than describing its opening premise:

You’re driving down a forest road when you have to suddenly hit the brakes— there’s a tree down, blocking your way. You get out of your car to look around, notice the crows in the sky, and realize there’s no way through. So you get back in, turn the car around, and drive to find another route. As you do, you pass through a tiny, one-street town. You barely notice it as you go through. Then as you carry on down the road you re-enter that tiny, one-street town. The locals look up and murmur something about it being your second time through as you drive on. Then you’re back in the town again. The friendlier locals will explain that this it, you’re here now, but you’ll probably ignore them and do a couple more loops before you give in. Then you’re warned to be inside by dark. That’s when the creatures come out...
