Blood Drive

The first episode was everything I could have possibly asked for. Purely amazing! And Julian Slink is one of the most riveting characters I've ever seen on TV - like Hannibal Lecter, the Mad Hatter and Mystery Man (from Lost Highway) had a baby together.

I can't wait to see next week's episode. I love this show!

Fresh and spoiler free.

Personally I hate grind house. However as some of these reviews illustrate, this is the type of show that is ridiculously needed right now. Something lewd, offensive, stupid, and just plain dumb fun. I gave it a shot expecting it to be dumb and groan worthy, and wanting to see just how awful and lame it was. What I got was a feast for the senses and synapses.

This world is entirely too uptight. This is exactly what needs to be on air right now. Something that pushes boundaries and riles up the sheep.

Sure it is not what it is proudly ripping off, and that is a good thing. Content like this does not hold up well because by its nature its satirical of the modern age and the nearly half century old 40+ yr old inspiration is functionally unwatchable today because it is like watching a preschool version of itself. This is a modernization of it and is not intended for mass market appeal like the doomed to failure Anderson film.

Its not perfect by any measure, but in this ludicrous terrified and twitching PC snowflake world we live in, This is exactly the flamethrower we need. Particularly enjoy the soundtrack thus far and I sincerely hope that they keep it at this level or better.

Its all about the grandeur and spectacle. This is the Romans at the Colosseum feeding Christians to the lions. You have choices. Either cheer along, or be the next to be chucked in. You are not entitled to an apology if you are not entertained from those of us who are.

This show is very fun to watch, and I'll bet that the actors and writers have a lot of fun putting it together! Casting was superb!

If you like sarcastic, comedy horror similar to Ash (but much better) with some Road Warrior thrown in, you're really going to enjoy this one. So much is packed into one episode that it feels like a short movie, not a 45 minute show.

Blood Drive is a show that was probably way overdue. I don't think I have ever seen something work so hard.....to be so bad....and turn out so good. If you've been a fan of the prestige TV of the last few years, think Hannibal, Game Of Thrones, The Wire, Deadwood, The Sopranos you get the picture. Turn off that part of your brain and try this. If you got what Tarantino and Rodriquez were going for with Grindhouse and then the Machete films, then this is a must.

Its carnal, corny, carnage and its it meant to get a laughing WTF out of its viewers.

Everyone who knows anything about food and nutrition will tell you how bad chili cheese dogs are. But some people, like myself, just love them, and continue consuming them no matter how unhealthy!

It is pretty funny reading reviews from people that talk about how awful and trashy this is, sort of like amateur restaurant critics evaluating a chili cheese dog from a street cart using Michelin standards. Yeah, it gets no stars. But it's still pretty damn satisfying, if you like that kind of thing!

You don't watch a series like this expecting to see Breaking Bad or The Wire. You've got to compare it to other chili cheese dogs, not to truffles and foie gras at the French Laundry. And if you are comparing this show to things like Death Race 2000, it does pretty well.
