Netflix today announced a series order for Archive 81, an original story loosely inspired by the popular found footage horror podcast.
When archivist Dan Turner (Athie) takes a mysterious job restoring a collection of damaged videotapes from 1994, he finds himself reconstructing the work of documentary filmmaker Melody Pendras (Shihabi) and her investigation into a dangerous cult. As Dan is drawn into Melody’s story, he becomes convinced he can save her from the terrifying end she met 25 years ago.
The original Archive 81 podcast was created by Marc Sollinger and Daniel Powell who serve as co-producers on the series.
