What started as an underrated horror series buried on MGM+ has gradually built a passionate fanbase and become one of television’s biggest surprises. Anchored by a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes and explosive word-of-mouth growth across social media, “From” has established itself as a certified breakout titan. And it deserves every bit of praise.
Created by John Griffin, the nightmare-fuel mystery follows an ensemble of unwilling travelers trapped inside a nightmarish, inescapable town. By day, the residents scramble to maintain a civilized society, but by night, they must bolt their doors against terrifying, shape-shifting humanoids that haunt the surrounding forest. Taking inspiration from mystery box shows like “Lost” while delivering its own brand of horror, “From” has encouraged viewers to search for answers behind every twist.
