For Netflix's first Western this is gritty stuff.Ī town of women who go up against bloodthirsty gangs of marauding men – what’s not to love about this series? Crafted deliberately as a limited series (that’s a one season and done), Godless has a razor sharp focus: there’s not a moment to waste, and none of it is. Following a mine accident that killed most of its male residents, the women including Downton Abbey's Michelle Dockery who won't take any shit from Griffin, are doing just dandy on their own. The twist? Goode's holed up in a town populated entirely by women. A gritty western set in a small mining town, Godless stars Jeff Daniels as notorious crook Frank Griffin, the leader of a bunch of outlaws desperate to locate defector Roy Goode, played by Jack O'Connell. This seven-episode limited series hails from Ocean's Eleven director Steven Soderbergh and Logan screenwriter Scott Frank. Saying that, you'll still be scared of turning the lights off at night after finishing this one. There are still ghost aplenty in Bly Manor, another haunted house story, but there's a romance at the centre of this series that's quite surprising. First off, while the actors are the same, they all play completely different characters as the series adapts Henry James' The Turn of the Screw. Hill House is absolutely terrifying – and its follow-up, The Haunting of Bly Manor, strikes a surprisingly different tone. Fleeing in the middle of the night, the story picks up decades later as the scattered family is drawn together again by that darn house. With the intention of renovating it and flipping it before they buy their real home, the Crains discover that the house has other plans.

A retelling of Shirley Jackson’s terrifying novel, the series was helmed by Mike Flanagan, whose previous Netflix features Hush and Gerald’s Game, and follows the Crain family as they move into the remote Hill House. The Haunting of Hill House was Netflix's first must-see horror.
