Requiem - Season 1
Part supernatural thriller, part psychological horror, Requiem takes its inspiration from the psychological horror films of the late 1960s and '70s - Rosemary's Baby, Don't Look Now, and The Innocents, avoiding easy answers, and instead playing on uncertainty and ambiguity. It's also a rumination on the nature of memory, identity, and loss, hinging on a universal truth: that when a parent dies, a part of you dies with them.

It is scary. It might have been scarier still if there were a little more sotto voce between the full-on fortissimo Hammer horror, for the imagination to get to work.

I have no idea what is going to happen next, but I reckon you would be mad to miss the next episode.

It's a thriller-cum-horror, although the thriller bits feel a bit well-trodden and the horror bits, so far, are mainly confined to persons unseen making "oo-wah-oo-wah" noises while various characters freak out at mirrors.

It prefers to take its time and lets the narrative play out at its own pace rather than going for cheap shock tactics, though the big revelation that closes the first episode is a genuine gasp-out-loud moment.
