Spoilers below for anyone who isn’t caught up with The Terror: Devil in Silver through its fourth episode via Shudder subscription, so be warned!
With Steven Spielberg seemingly tapping into his 1970s roots anew for the alien-centric Disclosure Day, the currently airing horror series The Terror: Devil in Silver is telling a story that (at least to me) has felt in several ways like Jaws set inside a mental hospital. Not merely from a “don’t show your monsters too early” perspective, but with the idea that the New Hyde psychiatric hospital is kind of a stand in for the island town of Amity.
