Love a speculative reimagining of King Lear as a concept. I agree with other reviewers that the horror elements could have been more in focus earlier BUT/AND it did have a kind of Piranesi pacing/air of mystery which I loved.
I also saw another reviewer call this Succession but Logan Roy has three lesbian daughters and that resonates az well.
There is a line about being known by your siblings in a specific way that will stick with me forever. Julia can turn a phrase!

Lil Wayne once sang “I run it myself like a quarterback option, I pitch a 10 Gs tell a bitch to go shopping” & I think that’s beautiful.
