“Horror would be absolutely perfect (because why not add psychological chills to the physical ones lol), but I’m open to anything that’ll keep me glued to the couch.”

The post went on to ask: “What are your recommendations? Hit me with your best/scariest/most binge-worthy series!”

French drama Marianne was among the recommendations, and it likely flew under most Netflix subscribers’ radars. It premiered in September 2019 but was cancelled in January 2020, after just one season.

Despite its short run on the streaming platform, the chilling show earned overwhelming praise from critics and casual fans alike. Its plot revolves around best-selling horror author Emma Larsimon, who returns to her hometown for inspiration.

Once there, Emma discovers that the evil spirit that haunts her nightmares may not be a figment of her imagination.

French actress Victoire Du Bois leads the cast as Emma. Film fans may recognise her from Oscar-winning drama Call Me By Your Name, where she shared the screen with Timothée Chalamet.

Upon its debut, Marianne earned critics’ approval. Taking to Rotten Tomatoes, one reviewer wrote: “With a decidedly Stephen King-esque inspired premise that feels like a combination of It and Misery and viscerally unsettling visuals edited with hair-raising precision, Marianne is a perfect recommendation for any horror fan.”

A casual moviegoer agreed: “It was seriously unsettling and creepy as hell. The whole vibe is super eerie, and some scenes actually gave me chills.”

While another added: “Creepiest show I’ve ever watched. And I loved it! I need to watch more French horror because if this is what y’all delivering I have been missing out.”

And a fourth viewer raved: “Best horror series on Netflix on the same level as Mike Flanagan’s Haunting of Hill House… which is the highest praise I can give anything!”
