The new series, The Boroughs, is set in a beautiful New Mexico retirement community where something terrifying begins hunting the residents, stealing their life force. The show follows Alfred Molina, playing a man coping with loss, as he teams up with his neighbors – played by Alfre Woodard, Geena Davis, Clarke Peters, Denis O’Hare, and Bill Pullman – to fight back against the creature. It blends spooky, otherworldly horror with a warm, small-town feel, exploring the challenges of aging and what we leave behind. The story is told in a similar style to classic adventure films like those from Amblin Entertainment and Steven Spielberg, featuring a group of unlikely heroes who rise to face a supernatural threat. If you enjoyed all eight episodes of The Boroughs, there are plenty of other movies that offer a similar experience.
