If They Look Like People hit the spot, these will too

Both keep coming back to the same thing: paranoia
The difference: 39 years apart, and the 1970s show

Contemplative and dread-soaked in the same breath
The difference: Takes it somewhere less paranoid than They Look Like People does

One thread runs through both: fear
The difference: Trades the dream logic of They Look Like People for an angle of its own

Both land unease and twists at once
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics

The same preoccupation in both: insanity

Dread-soaked horror, and it commits to that

Both lean on dream logic more than on mystery

Both are built on the same subject: demon
The difference: Leans harder into fantasy than They Look Like People does

Common ground: paranoia


Drama built on stillness, twice over

Unsettling drama in both cases
In the mood for more contemplative?
