1922

1922 is based on the Stephen King novella of the same name. It's about a farmer who plans to murder his wife for financial reasons and convinces his son to assist him. However, this is just the beginning of what's in store for this duo.

When the inherited land is finally in his grasp, the farmer thinks he's won. Unfortunately, something seems to have other plans for these two as they start suffering misfortunes. Perhaps it's not going to be as easy as they thought it would be.

Bird Box

A mother and her kids do everything they can to survive a deadly force they must not look at in Bird Box. As the family tries to blindly travel to safety in a new, insane world, an ominous danger is always in the background. They might never truly be safe again.

Gerald's Game

Another Stephen King favorite, Gerald's Game takes you down a dark path that begins with an innocent vacation. When her husband unexpectedly dies of a heart attack, Jessie is stuck in bed and in her head. There's no escape, and she has to relive her terrible past and deal with her demons.

Cargo

Black Mirror

The first TV show on our list, Black Mirror is an anthology series that takes technology to the darkest corners. Each episode is a stand-alone, but they'll all make you equally uncomfortable with a side of Twilight Zone-esque weirdness.
