Top Horror TV Series From the Last 25 Years as Ranked by IMDb Users15 of 20
6. "Hannibal" – Rating 8.6
A network TV show about cannibal serial killer Dr. Hannibal Lecter? It sounds like a long shot. But the dark and daring series went on to win major kudos from audiences and critics.
Mads Mikkelsen plays Dr. Hannibal Lecter, whom many fans first came to know in the film The Silence of the Lambs. This NBC series is based more on Thomas Harris' novel, "Red Dragon," which is set earlier in Lecter's life and follows his relationship with FBI investigator Will Graham (Hugh Dancy). Fans are still mad that the series was canceled after three seasons. Here's a quick user review sharing why the audience will miss it:
""Hannibal" offers gory thrills along with amazing images, fascinating characters, and an outstanding cast. Perhaps the most visual – and visually daring – crime show ever. 9 stars out of 10."
