"Gateway horror" is a hot topic among genre fans. Movies and shows that mixed kid-friendly content with more mature scares initiated many young viewers into the horror world, and for many, such a gateway was found in Eerie, Indiana. Though it only ran for a single season, the 1991 series has since gained a cult following, inspiring horror aficionados like Alex Hirsch, the mind behind Gravity Falls.

Eerie, Indiana may have looked like an ordinary kids' show on the surface, but it offered its young fans dark thrills worthy of The Twilight Zone and The X-Files. Under the creative guidance of Joe Dante, the genius behind modern classics like Gremlins and The 'Burbs, the show blended family entertainment with sharp social satire and considerable spookiness, leaving a lasting impression on its rapt audience. It may only have lasted 19 episodes, but Eerie, Indiana is still a must for fans of Goosebumps and...

The cultural impact of the phenomenon, that is Stranger Things, cannot be understated when it comes to the world of entertainment. Launching (and relaunching) careers, genres and defunct film series. Millie Bobby Brown is a multi-millionaire film and television superstar. Winona Ryder bought Beetlejuice back from the (un)dead. And the Ghostbusters films veered from old Saturday Night Live veterans, to a teen adventure reminiscent of The Monster Squad. Monster Summer, looks to capitalise on rekindle those halcyon days of “Teens-in Peril”, and supernatural menace, that typified that particular beloved 80’s sub-genre.

Monster Summer sees a wily group of teens, investigating the strange goings-on, on their quaint island community of Mayberry, Martha’s Vineyard. Children disappear and mysteriously reappear, devoid of personality and emotion.

Snowpiercer is a post-apocalyptic dystopian thriller film created by Josh Friedman and Graeme Manson. Based on a 2013 film of the same name by director Bong Joon-ho, the TNT and now AMC series is set in a frozen wasteland of a world with the only survivors living on a perpetually moving train, where class warfare runs rampant and the politics of survival is deadly to learn. Snowpiercer stars Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs in the lead roles with Rowan Blanchard, Sean Bean, Alison Wright, Annalise Basso, Mickey Sumner, Lena Hall, and Susan Park starring in supporting roles. So, if you loved the post-apocalypse, intense drama, and complex characters in Snowpiercer here are some similar shows you should check out next.

It was back in 2018 that Syfy pulled the plug on The Asylum-produced zombie series “Z Nation,” ending the show after five seasons. But it seems “Z Nation” might be coming back…

The Asylum took to Twitter last night to tweet out a graphic promising a “major announcement soon” from the world of “Z Nation,” noting that the show’s “brief break” is almost over.

Created by Karl Schaefer and Craig Engler, “Z Nation” was originally launched in 2014, with 68 total episodes airing across the five seasons that came to an end back in 2018.

Syfy’s “Z Nation,” the show’s Wikipedia page reminds, “begins three years into a zombie apocalypse caused by a virus that has already killed most humans. The series revolves around the travels of a small group of survivors being led through the apocalypse.”

The zombie series “Black Summer” is part of the “Z Nation” universe as well,...

The intense zombie series “Black Summer” returned to Netflix for its second season on June 17, 2021, but it’s now been nearly three years since we last heard a peep from the series.

So what’s the deal? Is “Black Summer” Season 3 ever going to bite its way onto Netflix? Well, a report from What’s on Netflix this week suggests the series has been cancelled.

The site reports, “Black Summer was expected to have been ghost-canceled last year, but finally, we’ve got confirmation that the series won’t be returning for a third outing on Netflix.”

This news comes as no big surprise, as series creator John Hyams (Sick) had responded to a tweet back in April 2023 with a simple “Sadly, nah,” when asked if “Black Summer” Season 3 was ever going to happen. It seems the final nail has now been hammered in.

“Black Summer” was created by Hyams and Karl Schaefer,...

This episode of the Horror TV Shows We Miss video series was Written and Narrated by Niki Minter, Edited by Adam Walton, Produced by John Fallon, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian. Here’s the text of the video script:

I think 1991 shaped my life before I even realized it did. Aeon Flux, Pete & Pete, Clarissa Explains It All, Liquid Television, The Addams Family, People Under the Stairs, Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead, and of course, Eerie, Indiana.

All those shows and movies I just mentioned, I can still enjoy just the same as I did then. A few of them actually get repeat viewings throughout the year. There was something cool about these shows made for kids and teens around this time– they weren’t dumbing it down. Kids felt like they were watching something that they could experience for themselves– it was something that felt real. These...

“Black Summer” has been renewed for Season 2 at Netflix, the streaming service announced on Wednesday.

The series, which stars Jaime King, is a prequel to Syfy’s now-ended “Z Nation,” which premiered in April with its eight-episode first season.

“Black Summer” followers survivors of a cataclysmic event who contend with zombies — and each other — to reach a military evacuation site. King stars as Rose, a mother, torn from her daughter, who embarks upon a harrowing journey, stopping at nothing to find her. Thrust alongside a small group of American refugees, she must brave a hostile new world and make brutal decisions during the most deadly summer of a zombie apocalypse.

TV horror has never been better. Here's our pick of the finest small screen scares.

This article comes from Den of Geek UK.

The late 2010's have been a banner time for horror. Across all media formats, horror is a big deal and everyone has been scrambling for a slice of that gory pie. Traditionally, horror is a big screen format, but with the rise of streaming services, the continued need for hours of content for cable, and network shows reaching out for marketable niche programming, small screen horror is thriving. Here are the eleven best horror shows currently airing.

The Haunting Of Hill House

Creator: Mike Flanagan

Broadcaster: Netflix

Premise: Hugh and Olivia Crain move into the crumbling Hill House with their five children. The goal is to renovate the mansion, sell it for a profit, and build the family dream home. Unfortunately for the Crains,...

Network: Netflix.

Episodes: Ongoing (30-60 minutes).

Seasons: Ongoing.

TV show dates: April 11, 2019 — present.

Series status: Has not been cancelled.

Performers include: Jaime King, Justin Chu Cary, Kelsey Flower, Gwynyth Walsh, Christine Lee, Mustafa Alabssi, Erika Hau, Sal Velez, Jr., Edsson Morales, Aidan Fink, and Kash Hill.

TV show description:

An apocalyptic drama from Karl Schaefer and John Hyams, the Black Summer TV show is -- according to some -- a prequel to Z Nation, a cancelled Syfy series created by Schaefer and Craig Engler (which Hyams worked on). According to others, it is an entirely unconnected zombie series from essentially the same team.

Either way, the story unfolds during the early days of the...

As Bananarama would say, it's a "cruel, cruel summer" in the early days of the zombie apocalypse in the official trailer for Black Summer, a prequel series that takes place in the same living dead universe as Z Nation.

Co-created by Karl Schaefer and John Hyams, all eight episodes of the first season of Black Summer will premiere on Netflix on April 11th.

Although Black Summer takes place in the same world as Z Nation, the tone of the new series looks to be decidedly more dark than the horror comedy style of its predecessor, and you can get a taste of what to expect in the official trailer below.

"A prequel set in the Z Nation universe, Black Summer is a new series introducing all new characters from every walk of life. Jamie King (Hart of Dixie) stars as a mother, torn from her daughter, who embarks upon a harrowing journey,...

Netflix is getting into the zombie apocalypse TV genre with Black Summer, a more serious offering from the makers of Z Nation.

Black Summer is coming to Netflix, offering a more dramatic and intense take on the zombie apocalypse genre; an idea seemingly contradictory to series production company The Asylum, which was responsible for Syfy’s schlocky serial take on the genre, Z Nation, which was recently canceled after five seasons. Yet, with the genre still spear-headed by AMC’s ratings-declining (but still potent) The Walking Dead, the onus on this new series will be to prove that zombies aren’t passé.

Indeed, Black Summer is the creation of Z Nation co-creator/executive producer Karl Schaefer and the Syfy show's co-executive producer, John Hyams, with both serving as showrunners and writers. The project was given a straight-to-series order for eight episodes back in July 2018.

Black Summer Trailer...

SyFy has canceled zombie drama Z Nation, according to producer David Michael Latt, who posted a Twitter video announcing the decision.

Z Nation will end with its fifth season. The drama concerns a band of zombie apocalypse survivors attempting to get a man who has an immunity to the virus causing the zombie explosion to the last-known Center for Disease Control research lab in California.

“We wanted to tell you face to face… that we were not renewed for Season 6,” Latt said in a late-night Periscope video on Friday. “We’re stopping at Season 5. We’re very sad, but we’re also really grateful with the opportunities that we had on the show.

“This is not the end of anything,” Latt said. “This is just the beginning of a lot of things.” i

Z Nation was created by Karl Schaefer and Craig Engler and produced by The Asylum. The show premiered in 2014 with 13 episodes.

Good news for Z Nation fans! According to The Hollywood Reporter, Netflix has ordered a new spinoff TV show called Black Summer.

From Z Nation creator Karl Schaefer and John Hyams, the zombie drama stars Jamie King (pictured) "as a mother who is torn from her daughter and embarks upon a harrowing journey, stopping at nothing to find her. Thrust alongside a small group of American refugees, she must brave a hostile new world and make brutal decisions during the most-deadly summer of a zombie apocalypse."

Careful, Jaime King: Netflix is coming for your brain.

The streaming giant has handed an eight-episode series order to Black Summer, a zombie drama starring the Hart of Dixie alumna.

Per our sister site Deadline, Black Summer stars King as a mother who, having been torn from her daughter, embarks upon a harrowing journey to find the girl. Alongside a group of American refugees, King’s protagonist “must brave a hostile new world and make brutal decisions” in the midst of a zombie apocalypse’s deadliest summer.

Z Nation is getting a spinoff!

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Netflix has placed an order for a new series set in the world of the popular zombie drama. 

The series will be titled Black Summer and will span eight episodes on the streaming platform. As you likely already know, Z Nation airs on Syfy in the U.S.

However, Netflix holds the streaming rights to the series, and the numbers must have been decent to pull the trigger on a spinoff. 

It's certainly a different way of doing business. There's no telling whether Syfy wanted the series to air there first, before going to Netflix in a similar fashion to the way the business model for Z Nation works.

The truth is out there, and two kids in the small midwestern town of Eerie, Indiana found it long before Mulder and Scully did.

It was The X-Files before The X-Files.

Well, sort of. When Twin Peaks suddenly vanished at the end of its controversial second and final season in 1991, it left in its wake a void shaped like a weird small town full of mysteries, and Northern Exposure wasn’t filling it. Someone had to step in and claim the mantle that Agent Cooper and the quirky townspeople had left somewhere at ABC.

Later that fall, someone did. Rival network NBC premiered a show about another tiny, unassuming town with a high population of gigantic and bizarre mysteries: Eerie, Indiana, the center of weirdness for the entire planet.

Unlike Twin Peaks, this was a squeaky-clean family show starring underage middle schoolers who definitely would not be...

Good news for those that missed Season 1 of Z Nation on Syfy and were looking to catch up. All thirteen episodes will be available to watch, starting this weekend:

“January 7, 2015 – Burbank, CA – Citizens of Z Nation, rejoice! Season 1 of Syfy’s hit show comes to Netflix on Friday, January 9th. All 13 episodes of the first season will be available at midnight.

The series revolves around a group of survivors three years after the devastating ZN1 virus has gutted the country, when a team of everyday heroes must transport the only known survivor of a zombie attack—and humanity’s last hope of developing a vaccine—from New York to California.

Z Nation launched as Syfy’s highest-rated acquired scripted series premiere since Dr. Who in 2006 and was the network’s most social acquisition ever. The pilot, “Puppies and Kittens,” won the 10pm timeslot for Syfy, outperforming AMC’s Turn and...

The band of survivors in Syfy and The Asylum’s Z Nation have endured a lot—hordes of the living dead, hostile humans, and even a “zombienado”—but there are still plenty of obstacles to come this season and beyond, as it was recently announced that Z Nation has been renewed for a second season.

Z Nation’s renewal was announced by Syfy and North by Northwest Productions, with the news tweeted by Z Nation co-creator Craig Engler. Halfway through its first season, the seventh episode of the show airs this Friday night.

“From The Asylum, the producers of Sharknado and Sharknado 2: The Second One, Z Nation starts three years after the zombie virus has gutted the country. A team of everyday heroes must transport the only known survivor of the plague from New York to California, where the last functioning viral lab waits for his blood. Although the...

Last week, fans of Z Nation were reminded that anything can happen in the apocalypse, as a “zombienado” tore through the countryside and landed the living dead right at the feet of survivors. The cast and crew of Z Nation will be at Walker Stalker Con: Atlanta this weekend to discuss the storm-centric episode and the rest of the season, joining fellow living dead TV series The Walking Dead at the event.

Airs Fridays at 10pm Est on Syfy

With such an enormous boom in zombie fiction, it is understandable that many people met the Z Nation previews with an eye-roll. When something has become a cliché, it will always present the opportunity for a project in that vein to either bring new light to the tired theme or mock a storyline that has been done to death. Syfy’s Z Nation is not bringing anything new to the table, but with such hilarious lines obviously poking fun at the genre as, “God, I hate moral dilemmas!” it is easy to see how this show could be entertaining.

Three years into the apocalypse, a diverse group of survivors meet and become allies with Mark Hammond, a government soldier who is transferring a man who is immune to the zombie virus.

SyFy’s new series, Z Nation, is the latest entry in the pop culture zombie craze and Executive Producer Karl Schaefer, is happy to point all the things that make his undead from the other ones lumbering around. Plus, with two decades of TV roles behind them, Grant Goodeve (Eight Is Enough) and Ted McGinley (Married With Children) team up for a new project.

If a step-by-step guide were written for how to create a standard zombie narrative, it would be titled "Z Nation." Start with one part outbreak footage, and mix in some overlapping audio clips of news regarding said outbreak.

Simmer it in a stock of basic characters with one part brown-haired stubbly leader, one part love interest, two parts mysterious drifters with unexplained combat prowess, and three parts uninteresting zombie chow to beef up the cast.

Marinade in a standard post-apocalyptic world, equal parts towns trying to make it and traveling caravans with dubious intent. Bake for 45 minutes in standard character dilemmas, adding in a mission to cure the virus for some longevity. Garnish with dialogue.

I try not to be too critical of things for being standard. I can’t expect everyone watching something to have the same breadth of exposure as I do, and in my experience there’s...

Syfy hopes to take a page from AMC's The Walking Dead and find ratings gold with its new zombie drama Z Nation. Z Nation, picked up straight to series, hails from Eureka producer Karl Schaefer and centers on the struggle to save humanity after a zombie apocalypse. While AMC's ratings juggernaut focuses on rebuilding humanity rather than finding a cure for the mysterious outbreak. The AMC series is adapted from Robert Kirkman's graphic novels, with the creator never interested in making his show or comic about finding a cure or explaining the origin of the outbreak. Judging from Syfy's Z
