Little Marvin reveals why Them: The Scare moved its setting from 1952 to 1991 in Los Angeles.
Little Marvin , the creator behind Them : The Scare, reveals why he chose 1991 as the setting for its second season. The first season of the Prime Video horror anthology series, titled Them : Covenant, took viewers back to Compton in the year 1952, when a Black family from North Carolina relocated to the City of Angels. Them : The Scare is still based in Los Angeles but this time takes place in 1991, which was a tumultuous time for the area when you factor in the Rodney King video surfacing.
ComicBook.com spoke to Little Marvin ahead of the premiere of Them: The Scare, where he was asked if there was any consideration for other time periods, and why he settled on 1991."There was a socio-cultural import to it, but there was also an artistic and creative nerd impulse about it," Marvin said."Socio-culturally, it was a very fraught time in LA history. The Rodney King tape came out to the world and sent shockwaves to the city in the days our show takes place.
He added,"I would also say that just as a nerd of the '90s and as a kid of that time, I'm obsessed with that time. Just like many people, I'm nostalgic for that time. I love the music, I love the movies. It dawned on me it would be possible in 1991 to go to a theater and see Misery, Silence of the Lambs, Cape Fear... Boys N the Hood, Terminator 2, Edward Scissorhands, Thelma & Louise, it was a litany of bangers that happened in 1991.
What is Prime Video's Them: The Scare about?THEM will once again be set in Los Angeles . The story centers on LAPD Homicide Detective Dawn Reeve, who is assigned to a new case: the gruesome murder of a foster home mother that has left even the most hardened detectives shaken.
