Dark fantasy fun for literature lovers

This series (which made up three films but somehow 8 episodes on TV) is well-made and a lot of fun. It will be especially enjoyable to anyone who has read Gogol's stories, as it incorporates elements and storylines from Viy and others (even The Nose). The look and feel is very much like Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow. Alexander Petrov as Gogol is very good. And if you love Russian literature and its tortured geniuses, watch for a couple of cameos from A. S. Pushkin! As of 2023, the whole series is still on Amazon with subtitles. The three-disc blu ray series of the films that I bought only has English subtitles on the second and third films.

You should watch this movie!

I think, it's very interesting film for viewers, who like mystic. There are a lot of scary and frightening scenes. Film tells as many stories about different people, so the plot is difficult to understand. Protagonist is extremely unpredictable! His acting is very realistic. Other actors are not convincing, in my opinion. All characters are unusual. For example, Gogol, countess Elizabeth, Oksana. CGI and special effects aren't gripping, really bad:( In all, script is fantastic. The end doesn't reveal the mysteries to us, I will wait for the continuation. Who is the same villain horseman?

Something really cool

I watched this film at home, when TV3 was showing it during these winter holidays. And I REALLY liked it very much. It's not a usual film. It's a TV series shown in cinemas and, to be honest, that's a great idea. Sitting among all the people who came there to watch it too helps to create a unique atmosphere. All the actors are perfect for the roles, I liked Oleg Menshikov most of all))) I advice you to watch it))

Horror story

The attempt to interpret life of the Russian writer Gogol paying attention to clerk's adventures in Russia, central Ukraine.

The plot is interesting, full of suspense related to mysterious and mystic murders.

The episodes of the film are related to jumps in time and links to dreams of the film's main hero.

Many humorous episodes related to Russian and Ukrainian lifestyle of the 19th century.

Sleepy Russian Hollow

Of course there is more to it than just this being a "copy" of Sleepy Hollow (it isn't, and I generally have to rewatch that movie asap anyway)! But it has things that may feel like there are quite the few comparisons one can take. There are also references to many other Science Fiction movies and books.

Having said that, the movie does not shy away from being violent and sexy (though some may beg to differ on the latter). The acting is quite fine and the story is more than intriguing. The sound design and the cinematography more than live up to what the movie sets out to do - and anyone watching will not be dissapointed. The first of a trilogy - you kind of can feel it. And it is tough to say how you'll like it if you only watch one of those (this for example) ... you may feel it deserves more or less rating wise ...
