No? That’s because they’re LIES. LIES told by the bourgeoisie to keep common folk down. But I say NO, no longer shall we be kept down by deceit!

Blumhouse Tries a New Scare Tactic With Netflix Series ‘Nightmares of Nature’

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-10-09 13:02:34

Nature shows tend to have horror baked in. Sure, we watch them to be educated, but also for the alarmingly gasp-inducing, uncomfortably emotional moments: killer whales gobbling adorable baby seals, furious lions battling each other for supremacy, uncomfortably large spiders just being themselves… you know how it goes. Horror studio Blumhouse is leaning hard into that idea with Nightmares of Nature, a new documentary series coming to Netflix. A joint production of Blumhouse Television and Plims
