Fantasy horror anthology series centred on numerous beasts, the people who encounter them, and the thin line that separates the two.

Telling a new story every episode, the series begins in Port Fourchon, LA, where a serial killer is terrorising the coastal town and 19-year-old mother, Toni DiMarco finds herself face-to-face with some horrifying truths. Then, it’s stories from a New Orleans socialite who is wrestling with her past; a suburban lawyer who is debating life and death; a lonely teen who encounters an unwelcome guest; a woman who must decide how far she’s willing to go for a new life; an oil executive and his assistant who are both wrestling with their guilt; and a grieving couple struggling to say goodbye.

"Some great horror television, especially if you enjoy being challenged by how tragic a scary story is willing to go. “Monsterland” still has a good deal of creepy demons and supernatural figures, but it’s the people who will be making you go from one episode to the next."

"Although Monsterland does suffer from the unevenness that seems to be inherent in all anthologies (horror or otherwise), its highs are among the best genre work of the year."

"While I say that no installment of Monsterland is a complete success, I don't think any installment is a complete failure either — though there's something perhaps even more disheartening in starting one episode after another with hope and enthusiasm but then knowing with increasing certainty that it probably won't stick the landing."
