Kingdom, released in two six-episode seasons from 2019 to 2020, and a special episode in 2021 titled Kingdom: Ashin of the North, is a tightly knit, swiftly moving horror epic. Its concise structure maintains an unrelenting tension throughout without any lags. The series uniquely roots its horror within a specific historical backdrop – a time marked by strict social hierarchies, famine, and ruthless political machinations. This gives the horror a distinct feel. While it may leave some viewers with unanswered questions, it’s a must-see for those seeking an intelligent horror series that delivers chilling moments.
