    Popular culture hasn’t quite let go of Squid Game yet.

    What with the ‘red light, green light’ song all over social media, and the characters making appearances in Halloween costumes.

    A new Korean mystery sci-fi horror drama has arrived, which sounds like it could fulfil your cravings until a potential second season of ‘Squid Game’.

    Dr. Brain stars Parasite’s award-winning Lee Sun-kyun and is directed and co-written by I Saw the Devil’s Kim Jee-woon.

    Viewers can expect high-quality content in terms of cinematography, but the storyline might just drive you bonkers, much like the main character.

    It is the first Korean series launched by Apple TV, described by The Daily Beast as a “six-part sci-fi effort that begins in lunatic terrain and gets progressively wilder and weirder with each instalment”:

    Restraint is not its forte, but fantastical psychotronic horror-mystery-family-drama most certainly is, making it—on the heels of Netflix’s Squid Game—a foreign import that’s tailor-made for viewers with a fondness for unhinged genre insanity.

    The story follows a brilliant brain scientist, Sewon, who works all day and night on a project that will help him navigate through memories and thoughts of dead people by syncing his brain with them and other creatures.

    That seems like a somewhat simple plotline, but apparently, there are many twists and turns:

    Like Sewon’s crowded noggin, Dr. Brain is a jumble of influences, from Frankenstein and Re-Animator to Inception (to name just a few).

    Director Kim, however, amalgamates with aplomb, creating something that feels fresh even though the traces of its predecessors are easy to identify.

    Cult of Mac also compares it to Squid Game, adding that Apple TV appears keen to cash in on the Korean focus while it can.

    Trailer time:

    Dr. Brain episode one will be released today on Apple TV+.
