With some brilliant anthologies on Netflix like 'Criminal' and 'Black Mirror', the streaming service is bringing its viewers another anthology series. Featuring dark Scandinavian humor, 'Bloodride' will have your hair standing at the back of your head in horror this March.

Release date

The first season will consist of six episodes featuring unique tales and will be released on March 13.

Plot

Netflix touts 'Bloodride' to be a "genre romp where dark comedic stories relish in twists and turns, mysteries, absurdities, and morbid humor." As such, the original series will be full of surprises.

Netflix promises that 'Bloodride' will be a journey into the unknown, where the participants are clueless as to where their travels will lead them. Each episode is a self-contained story with its own characters and unpredictable universe.

The only thing connecting all these stories is a mysterious bus driving through a desolate landscape. The passengers who get off this bus are the leads of their respective episodes.

'Bloodride' will be chilling, yet filled with humor and set in a realistic, yet weird universe. According to Netflix, the Norwegian anthology series are for family members who enjoy eerie stories and are entertained by blood-curdling horror.

Cast

The show stars Ine Marie Wilmann, Bjørnar Teigen, Emma Spetalen Magnusson, Benjamin Helstad, Harald Rosenstrøm, Torfinn Nag, Dagny Backer Johnsen, Stig Amdam and Synnøve Macody Lund.

Creator

'Bloodride' was created by Kjetil Indregard ('Helt Perfekt', 'Maniac', and 'Jul i Svingen') and Atle Knudsen ('ZombieLars', 'Struggle for Life', and 'Hjem').
