If there is one horror property out there that would make a killer TV series, it would be Critters. At least in my eyes. But I find the little furry binge-eating bastards to be adorable af so maybe it’s just me.

All the same, yes, there is a Critters TV series in the works. It’s called “Critter: A New Binge” and it will be hitting Verizon’s go90 in the near future.

You can check out the synopsis below and then make sure to let us know what you think!

The new series is directed by Jordan Rubin, who will write and executive produces alongside Jon Kaplan and Al Kaplan. Original Critters producers Rupert Harvey and Barry Opper are onboard as well.

The series begins production in early 2018.
