'Into the Dark': Hulu anthology horror set to put its signature twist on Valentine's Day in 'Down'

Apart from its element of horror, what binds every 'Into the Dark' episode together, is an essence of subtle social satire that acts as the show's twist to the genre
PUBLISHED JAN 9, 2019

When Hulu announced its ongoing monthly anthology horror series 'Into the Dark,' there was a lot of speculation about the show being just another 'Black Mirror' or 'American Horror Story' considering its genre. But then it was revealed that each episode would come out on a monthly basis and revolve around a festival signifying the month of the episode's release.

True to its theme, viewers were treated to a Halloween horror, followed by a Thanksgiving one, with Christmas arriving third, and finally New Year's Eve. Apart from the element of horror, what also bound these episodes together was the essence of subtle social satire that acted as the show's twist to the genre. This is once again going to unfold in its upcoming final two episodes - one showing the dark sinister side to Valentine's day, and the other exploring a not so pleasant side of family vacations.
