A Macabre Anthology of Sci-Fi Shorts
I really enjoyed this one. It’s a dated, macabre collection of short sci-fi stories with mild horror or thriller undertones, similar to Tales from the Darkside or The Twilight Zone. The Chinese drama Strange Notes is also a good comparison for those more familiar with it. Each episode tells a different story centered on an odd or mysterious occurrence, and although the same person introduces each one, they function as standalone watches.
That said, the main caveat is that it’s difficult to find online with English subtitles. It’s available on iQIYI, but a handful of episodes weren’t translated, and most of the translated ones rely on poorly done AI subs. For me, though, this didn’t detract from the experience, and overall it made for an enjoyable watch.
