Hellbound beats Squid games – BOL News Staging

Google revealed on Wednesday that its most popular search terms in 2021 range from Squid Game, Alec Baldwin and the cryptocurrency Dogecoin.

Sports were also big on the platform: the top eight search terms had to do with cricket, the NBA and international football tournaments like Euro 2021, Google said.

The wildly popular and uber violent Netflix series Squid Game, a South Korean-made survival game about people desperate to get out of debt, came in ninth position.

The American actor Baldwin, who accidentally killed a cinematographer on the set of a film in October with a loaded gun, was the most frequently looked-up personality on Google.

He beat out Kyle Rittenhouse, the young American recently acquitted in the shooting deaths of two people during an anti-racism demonstration in Wisconsin in 2020.

The Netflix horror-thriller “Hellbound” from South Korea has become an overnight global sensation.

The dark fantasy-based horror and terrifying series “Hellbound” topped “Squid Game” with its fantastical effects as the most-watched TV show on the streaming platform. With its outstanding writing, concepts, and production, the South Korean entertainment business is increasingly dominating showbiz in many genres.

Hellbound became the most-watched Netflix television series in the world on November 20th, topping streaming ratings in more than 80 countries within 24 hours of its premiere, according to FlixPatrol analytics.

The huge, hairy creatures incinerate their victims and hurl them to damnation, causing popular outrage and religious fanaticism.

Hellbound is directed by Yeon Sang-ho and aired in September at the Toronto International Film Festival 2021.

In October, an estimated 142 million homes in 94 countries watched the series, which is infamous for its extreme brutality and gore. Netflix has profited an estimated $900 million from it.
