One of the greatest horror directors working today is Joko Anwar, whose Satan's Slaves movies and Impetigore (plus his script for The Queen of Black Magic) have singlehandedly revitalized Indoesian Horror as a force to be reckoned with on the world stage. I'm sure I'm minimalizing the efforts of many with that staement since we only get to see so much of what's happening there here in the U.S. but his name has popped up again and again enough that it sure feels like he's heading that front to me. Anyway he's made enough of a name for himself that he's gotten his name above the title of a new Netflix series so that's certainly something -- it's called Nightmares and Daydreams and it's releasing globally on June 14th and we have ourselves a trailer! nd while there are surely scares to be had ("nightmares" is in the title after all) this is according to Anwar more of a "sci-fi supernatural" story than it is explicit horror. It's also a semi-anthology -- seven episodes telling seven stories that are set in the same world and interconnected, and which apparently all lead to a big "showdown." We'll be there on June 14th!
