Little Marvin, the creator of the ‘Them’ series, is surely aware of the parallels of his work for Amazon Prime with ‘We’ (Us, 2019), by Jordan Peele, whose poster it even has the same typeface as the Amazon Prime series Furthermore, the style of the film extends to its visual and thematic proposal, purely and exclusively horror focused on the racial problem of the United States.
In fact, the first season of this new anthological series, entitled Covenant, has a starting point with similarities to other works by Peele and his disciples, such as ‘Let Me Out’ (Get Out, 2017) and the recent ‘Lovecraft Territory’ ( Lovecraft Country, 2020), which has also been produced by Peele. The story of these ten episodes recounts the martyrdom of an African-American family that moves to the white Compton neighborhood in Los Angeles County.
