IT: Welcome to Derry poster

IT: Welcome to Derry

HBO • Oct 26 • 2025
DramaHorror

In 1962, a couple with their son move to Derry, Maine just as a young boy disappears. With their arrival, very bad things begin to happen in the town.

Why This Pick

IT: Welcome to Derry and The Boroughs both build dread from community fracture, where ordinary relationships get strained until danger feels personal. The 1960s small-town mystery keeps tension slow and intimate through family and neighbor secrets, while The Boroughs widens the threat into a supernatural time crisis that hits the whole retirement community.

Alien: Earth poster

Alien: Earth

FX • Aug 12 • 2025
DramaHorror

When a mysterious space vessel crash-lands on Earth, a young woman and a ragtag group of tactical soldiers make a fateful discovery that puts them face-to-face with the planet's greatest threat.

Why This Pick

Alien: Earth brings bleak survival horror with a tight group under constant threat, and The Boroughs shares that pressure-cooker feeling where people must act together fast. The crash-landing story leans on paranoia, urgent decisions, and escalating dread, while The Boroughs adds a supernatural time element and a more community-centered fight for what people can’t afford to lose.
