  1. Had I Not Seen the Sun poster

    Closest match

    Netflix · Nov 13, 2025

    Had I Not Seen the Sun

    IMDb 6.6

    Why this fits: Had I Not Seen the Sun keeps the dread slow and intimate, with a wronged man’s world tightening through interviews, dreams, and uneasy romance. The same claustrophobic pressure you feel in The Terror: Devil in Silver shows up in quiet rooms and recurring nightmares, but the danger turns more uncanny and dreamlike than purely institutional.

    • serial killer case
    • prison interviews
  2. Silo poster

    Direct match

    AppleTV+ · Jul 3, 2026

    Silo

    IMDb 8.1

    Why this fits: Silo delivers slow, methodical tension inside a sealed world where every answer costs something. Like The Terror: Devil in Silver, it leans on confined spaces, controlled authority, and characters pushing back against official explanations, with pacing that keeps tightening, then widening into bigger, stranger stakes.

    • confined-world paranoia
    • conspiracy cover-ups
  3. Flukten fra Bolivia poster

    Direct match

    TV 2 Play · Dec 25, 2025

    Flukten fra Bolivia

    Why this fits: Flukten fra Bolivia starts with wrongful confinement and turns it into a relentless test of trust under survival pressure. That same sense of being trapped by systems and silenced by people around you in The Terror: Devil in Silver carries over, but the escape brings more kinetic danger and betrayal-driven urgency.

    • wrongful conviction
    • jungle escape
  4. Treasure & Dirt poster

    Deeper cut

    ABC iview · Jul 19, 2026

    Treasure & Dirt

    Why this fits

    Treasure & Dirt keeps the focus on isolated investigation and moral ambiguity, like The Terror: Devil in Silver, but it leans harder into crime-thriller momentum. Expect institutional collapse and two investigators driving the plot, with less supernatural dread and more human systems breaking down.

  5. L/over – ikuisesti minun poster

    Deeper cut

    MTV3 · Jan 25, 2026

    L/over – ikuisesti minun

    Why this fits

    L/over – ikuisesti minun is a slow-burn, character-driven mind-game thriller built around secrets and desperate choices, the same kind of pressure The Terror: Devil in Silver puts on its characters. The difference is more quiet psychological drama and family conflict, with dread coming from manipulation rather than open danger.

    • mind-game thriller
    • slow-burn dread
    • character-driven suspense
  6. The Ridge poster

    Deeper cut

    Acorn TV · Jul 27, 2026

    The Ridge

    IMDb 5.4
    Why this fits

    The Ridge offers quiet dread mystery and small-town secrets that echo The Terror: Devil in Silver’s outsider suspicion and psychological unease. Instead of survival danger, it pivots toward grief-to-paranoia and family tragedy fallout, making the tension feel more intimate and investigative than immediate.

    • quiet dread mystery
    • grief-to-paranoia
    • small-town secrets
