The TVI Take

A family haunted by experiences in a childhood home. Mike Flanagan's Netflix series is exceptional horror craft — the 'Bent-Neck Lady' long take episode is one of the great recent television hours.

Educational about grief and trauma as Gothic horror. The long take in Episode 6 is technically extraordinary.
