Into the Dark

Look, I like the show. My issue is that everything is looked up on sites like this one, imdb now. On the front of Hulu today shows a movie titled Blood Moon. Go look for it. You'll NEVER find it. That's because it's an episode of I to the Dark. But nowhere on its Hulu details page does it mention into the dark. The only way I found out is by searching one of the actors and tracing it back. Who would purposely do this? Most who look things up first will pass this up like I was about to. Typically the only reason you can't find a movie is because it was made so awfully that it doesn't even have a page on IMDb. It's just strange that so many people put time into something and they make it this hard to care about. Oh well. It's not that great anyway. Into the Dark has many better episodes to choose from.

I actually really enjoyed this episode. I was actually expecting something a little darker and was pleasantly surprised by the comedy element of it. Tom Bateman was fabulous playing the hitman, really good job. The three 'heroes' were really funny, I found myself laughing quite a lot. Having said that, I'm hoping that not all of the episodes are going to be comedic. I am expecting the next one to be downright scary. Watch this space.

HULU's anthologic series is made by short horror movies. Some of them are definetely interesting, while others are very boring and pretty much predictable. There are 12 episodes, usually released close to holiday periods like Christmas or Thanksgiving Day, and that obviously are somewhat related to these festivities.

The pilot was just okay, nohing that hooked me so much. The network should have begin with something more interesting like the "Pooka!" episode that, at least for me, was one of the best episode, with an unexpected ending. Most of them contains many clichées and the real good ones are a few. Some topics are interesting but too much present, like for example the gender discrimination and the physical and mental abuse.

Being an anthologic serie, you don't have to watch the complete season (I did it because I was watching it, while it was aired), so I will simply tell which are for me the best episodes: "Flesh and Blood", "Pooka!"

The acting was almost always good and I was happy to see in the cast actors like Carly Chaikin (Mr. Robot), or Jimmi Simpson. I was also glad to discover new actors like Hayes MacArthur and Martha Higareda.

Into The Dark is a good product and considering the whole package, I have decided to give 7 stars out of 10. I am a little bit sorry that was not so popular and I really hope that HULU will eventually renew the serie with new stories. If you are an horror fan, I suggest to give it a shot.

I really enjoy these horror movies from hulu. They are just good, classic horror movies. Nothing spectacular or amazing, or groundbreaking, but good enough I enjoy them and want to keep watching them. Kudos to Blumhouse.

I'm going to rate each movie of the series so far...

The Body 4/10 This movie is my least favorite. It is a longer version of a short film of the same name. Bad acting. Flesh and Blood 6/10 This movie had a nice twist, but it was a little predictable. The acting was decent. New Year New You 6/10. This movie was nicely done. I enjoyed the acting, but it could have explained some things a little more in my opinion. Pooka 2/10 This installment was my least favorite. It started out promising, but it kept jumping around and confusing the heck out of me. I still do not totally understand what happened. Down 8/10. This installment was very well done. It was exciting, and kept my attention to the very good ending. Treehouse 9/10 This movie was my favorite! I had no clue what it was about going in, but I was very pleased, and loved the twist! Well done! I cannot wait to view the rest of the installments! This is a great series!!!
