Netflix Buried this Cosmic Horror Gem

Description:

(SPOILER FREE) In 2022, Netflix quietly released a mind-bending cosmic horror short film that nearly vanished without a trace — and today, we’re unearthing it. The Viewing, directed by Panos Cosmatos (Mandy) — and a part of the Guillermo Del Toro produced anthology series ‘Cabinet of Curiosities’ — is a surreal, atmospheric descent into madness that blends synth-soaked visuals, Lovecraftian dread, and a chilling sense of existential terror. In this video, we dive into why The Viewing is one of the most underrated horror gems on Netflix, how it fits into the cosmic horror genre, and what makes it stand out from more mainstream paranormal or slasher films. If you’re into slow-burn dread, unexplainable forces, and horror that makes you question your place in the universe — this one’s for you. Whether you're a longtime fan of cosmic horror or just dipping your toes into the genre, this breakdown will show you why The Viewing deserves far more recognition than it got.
