Fans of the critically acclaimed horror series From are celebrating a major development, as the show has finally received a significant update after a prolonged hiatus. The atmospheric and unsettling programme, which viewers have consistently described as both "gory" and "mind-bending," has confirmed the release date for its highly anticipated fourth season.
A Community Trapped in Terror
The top-rated series follows a desperate community inhabiting a seemingly cursed town from which there is no escape. The residents, all of whom arrived there by accident, face a nightly nightmare. As darkness falls, they are forced to retreat to their homes or face a brutal and gruesome death at the hands of bizarre, monstrous creatures that emerge only after sunset.
An Inescapable Nightmare
In a horrifying twist central to the plot, none of the town's inhabitants can leave. Any attempt to exit results in them inexplicably finding themselves back where they started, trapped in a perpetual loop of terror. Beyond the immediate threat of the nocturnal monsters, the community must also battle dwindling resources and the psychological strain of their confinement, all while contending with new arrivals who struggle to comprehend their grim fate.
Season Four Release Confirmed
After a wait of more than a year, a release date has finally been announced for the show's next chapter. The first three seasons of From are currently available to stream on MGM+, and the fresh fourth season is scheduled to premiere on April 19 this year. The new instalment will pick up directly after the dramatic events that concluded season three, promising to delve deeper into the town's mysteries.
Stellar Cast and Critical Acclaim
The series boasts an impressive ensemble cast. Harold Perrineau, known for 28 Weeks Later, portrays the town's stoic leader, Boyd Stevens. Scott McCord, of Inspector Gadget fame, plays the longest-serving resident, Victor Kavanaugh. Academy Award-nominated actress Catalina Sandino Moreno brings to life Tabitha Matthews, a mother fiercely determined to find a way out of the cursed town for her family's sake.
From has garnered exceptional reviews, holding an impressive 96 per cent critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes. Audiences have also responded positively, awarding the released seasons an average audience score of 80 per cent on the platform.
Fan and Critical Praise
Viewers have been effusive in their praise, particularly highlighting the show's palpable atmosphere. One fan gushed, "Where the show really shines is vibes. The atmosphere is thick, unsettling, and constantly humming with dread. Nights feel genuinely dangerous, and the sense of paranoia never fully lifts."
Another enthusiast commented on its binge-worthy nature, stating, "I love the acting - I love the twists and turns...Easy to binge in a sitting." A third viewer declared it "hands down the most mind-bending horror show I’ve ever seen. Every episode pulls you deeper into an atmosphere that’s unsettling, intelligent, and impossible to predict."
Critics have echoed this sentiment, with one noting, "From is one of the best shows on TV. It's a terrifying puzzle that continuously raises the stakes. It is anchored by an amazing cast of characters that the series has no problem killing off when the time is right."
Seasons one through three of From are now available for streaming exclusively on MGM+. The long-awaited fourth season will join the catalogue on the service from April 19.
