SERIES: Five guilty pleasures to enjoy without complexes
STREAMING: the devastating story that no one would want to be hooked on
The terrifying 2020 has caused many troubles, but
it has also served the masters of terror to inspire (or polish) new nightmares
that now arrive in the form of series ready to enter the homes and mobile devices of the most daring and courageous.
These are the most terrifying proposals of the moment.
The Stand (Starzplay)
The Dark Man emerges from the rubble after the massive destruction caused by a human virus called
Captain Trips
.
His power is enormous and only a group of people seems capable of having him and his army.
The umpteenth adaptation of a
Stephen King play
, in the form of a nine-episode miniseries has an impressive cast: (
James Marsden
,
Alexander Skarsgård
,
Whoopi Goldberg
,
Amber Heard
...) and enough budget to show a post-apocalyptic America in a convincing way .
CALLS (APPLE TV +)
The Uruguayan director
Fede Álvarez
(
Infernal Possession
,
Don't breathe
) is at the forefront of the remake of
Timothée Hocheet's
innovative series
that premiered on
Canal + France
in 2017. In it, terror and suspense can be heard, but not seen. Or at least, it does not do it in the way we are used to, but with shapes, lines and colors that represent what the telephone conversations tell that carry the weight of the narrative. The lives of strangers (with voices of
Pedro Pascal
,
Lilly Collins
,
Aaron Taylor-Johnson
,
Nick Jonas
or
Rosario Dawson
) are truncated in what appears to be the beginning of an apocalyptic event.
Confessions such as "Someone is outside. He's in the backyard ... I'm very scared" are the beginning of nightmares ...
Truth Seekers (Amazon Prime Video)
The joy for its premiere has been accompanied by sadness at its drastic cancellation. But the fact that the long-awaited series that reunited
Nick Frost
and
Simon Pegg
, a cross between horror and comedy, is going to stay in a single season should not be a reason not to give it a try. "It was like receiving a brutal kick in the hair," said Frost upon learning that his media group of ghost hunters will not be able to continue investigating the paranormal in the
British
style
. The mix of genres inevitably leads to compare it with
Ghostbusters
,
Ghostwatch
or even
Scooby Doo
, which no matter how much it was cartoon, forced more than one infant to go "cure the scare".
Among his great successes is the inclusion of a
weekly monster
and the recovery of actors from
Malcolm McDowell's
entity
.
Subscription to Amazon Prime Video is available here.
Behind your eyes (Netflix)
Based on the hit novel of the same name by
Sarah Pinborough
, the series created by
Steve Lightfoot
tells how a single mother engages in a world of twisted mind games as she begins an affair with her head psychiatrist while befriending his mysterious wife.
Simona Brown
,
Eve Hewson
,
Tom Bateman
hold a
thriller
where night terrors, mystery and eroticism go hand in hand and lead the viewer to one of those endings with a final twist that makes her love ... or hate her.
