Amazon’s Spanish horror series
The Boarding School: Las Cumbres, a reboot of the early-2000s Spanish show of the same name, takes place in an isolated Catholic boarding school for wayward teenagers, where the teachers’ discipline is severe and the students dream of escape. The eerie stone building on a cliff, surrounded by a swath of dark forest, already makes for a creepy Gothic atmosphere. (Nothing says Gothic romance like an ominous building that’s impossible to leave.) And that’s without the mysterious figure in a plague mask who kidnaps a student at the end of the first episode.
