This series from Apple TV has won nearly unanimous praise from both critics and audiences. It’s a rare horror-comedy that manages to be genuinely scary and really funny. In the island town of Widow’s Bay, literally everything is haunted, cursed, and otherwise beset with unspeakable evil, but mayor Tom Loftis (Matthew Rhys) still really wants to bring tourism to the island. Mayor Tom is so married to his vision of Widow’s Bay as the next Martha’s Vineyard, he ignores the sea hags, fog monsters, and serial killer ghosts surrounding him. The great Stephen Root plays Wyck, an old-timer who’s always there to remind everyone that time is short and everyone is doomed. Stream Widow’s Bay on Apple TV+.

Nicolas Cage plays Spider-man (sort of) in this superhero story set in the pulpy, stylized world of classic film noir. In an alternate universe version of New York in the 1930s, Ben Reilly (Cage) is a world-weary private detective who once secretly cleaned up the town as his alter-ego, The Spider. After a personal tragedy, Reilly hung up his mask, choosing to drown his memories in cheap whiskey. But when an investigation uncovers a sprawling political conspiracy, he is forced to confront his past and become the Spider again. To enhance the classic Hollywood feel, this series is viewable in both color and black-and-white. Stream Spider-Noir on Prime Video.

Executive produced by Steven Spielberg and Martin Scorsese, Cape Fear is a 10-episode reimagining of the classic novel, previously adapted into two celebrated films. In this extended version, Amy Adams plays Anna Bowden, a defense attorney who unsuccessfully defended murder suspect Max Cady 17 years previously. Turns out he wasn’t guilty, and Cady has had nearly two decades to plan his revenge against the woman he blames for putting him behind bars. Javier Bardem brings unsettling energy to the role of Cady, previously played by Robert Mitchum, Robert De Niro, and Sideshow Bob. If you like slow-burn suspense that gradually ratchets up tension, you’ll like Cape Fear. Stream Cape Fear on Apple TV+.

The Boroughs of the title is a fictionalized version of one of those Florida mega-retirement communities like The Villages. Alfred Molina plays Sam, a grieving widower and new arrival who is not impressed with the community. The Boroughs’ wizened residents live out their days carousing and/or waiting for their grandkids to visit, but their golden years are interrupted by a supernatural threat, so Sam gathers a squad of grannies and greybeards and sets out to destroy the Evil like it’s an early bird special at Denny’s. The Boroughs was executive produced by the Duffer Brothers, so think “Stranger Things, but with old people.” Unfortunately, the show has already been canceled, but the first season ends on a relatively satisfying note. Stream The Boroughs on Netflix.

We are nine seasons deep on Rick and Morty, and by this point, you are either on the bus or off it. In this case, the bus is the chaotic, multiverse-hopping animated adventures of a sociopathic scientist and his chronically anxious grandson as they battle cosmic horrors and navigate dysfunctional family dynamics. It’s unapologetically weird, cynical, and rambunctious, and the latest season proves there’s still plenty of gas left in Rick and Morty’s portal gun. Stream Rick and Morty on Hulu and Max.
