FROM Season 3 Premiere Leaves Viewers on Edge
The highly anticipated return of the MGM+ original series, ‘FROM,’ premiered its third season with a haunting episode titled ‘Shatter.’ The series, known for its blend of science fiction and horror, continues to captivate audiences with its chilling narrative.
The episode resumes from the dramatic conclusion of Season 2, where Tabitha, portrayed by Catalina Sandino Moreno, seemingly escapes the nightmare of Fromville, only to awaken in a hospital outside the town. This premiere episode brings viewers back into the eerie universe, emphasizing the psychological and emotional turmoil of its characters.
Characters like Victor, played by Scott McCord, and Jim remain pivotal, with secrets about the ominous Faraway tree creating tension. Meanwhile, the episode introduces new challenges as Jim finds a mysteriously ruined homestead with eerie mannequins, hinting at layers of unresolved mysteries.
One of the standout elements was Jade’s tumultuous mental state, portrayed by David Alpay, who is seen struggling with trauma-induced visions. This storyline revisits the frightening cavern tunnels and haunting symbols from the previous season, pushing Jade’s character to a breaking point, which adds a layered complexity to the narrative.
The episode also teases viewers with the possibility of a broader, more sinister level beyond Fromville, as suggested by the hints of a boy in white seen by Tabitha, indicating she might still be trapped in the show’s enigmatic universe.
The premiere is marked by a climactic scene where the town’s residents face attacks from nightmarish creatures. This horrifying confrontation results in the tragic death of beloved character Tian-Chen, adding an emotional weight to the storyline while heightening suspense for upcoming episodes.
Airing on MGM+—formerly known as Epix—the third season of ‘FROM’ promises to delve deeper into its intricate plotlines, with new episodes scheduled to release weekly. This season’s disquieting opener has set the stage for an emotionally charged and suspenseful continuation that fans can tune into every Friday night.
