• 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.
