Stephen King’s The Institute Is a Masterful Blend of Sci-Fi and Horror

Created by the writer behind shows like SEAL Team and Justified, Benjamin Cavell, The Institute took some liberties with Stephen King’s novel, notably making the young characters older to create a more intense and frightening atmosphere for television. These changes proved worthwhile, leading to a second season renewal. The show currently has a 66% rating from critics and a 69% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, with many praising its suspenseful and gripping nature.
