Netflix’s Sirens is based around a concept anyone who’s seen that one recruitment video will deeply understand: sororities—whether in college or beyond—can be scary as hell. While the sisterhood in Netflix’s Sirens may look like a pastel-draped Delta Nu on the outside, they seem to be harboring a very dark secret—one that may render them better suited for life in the actual harbor.
While the trailer doesn’t make it explicitly clear, all perfectly manicured fingernails point to this being a story about an actual, mythical siren posing as the leader of a cult-like wellness retreat for one-percenters. That’s an alluring concept in itself, made even more enticing by the fact that the revered socialite, Michaela Kell (Kiki to her nearest and dearest) is played by an appropriately ethereal Julianne Moore.
