This show makes the Amazon jungle feel cursed. A famous explorer goes missing and his family searches for him, only to find something they never should have disturbed. The horror builds through found footage, making every shadow feel alive. The scene where a ghostly child stares through the boat’s window and vanishes is terrifying. It deserved more than one season. It was ignored because it came out when found-footage fatigue was high, but it delivered some of the best supernatural horror on TV.
