I and maybe you should give TV series and films from non-English countries a bigger chance.

Nothing wrong with productions from England and the USA. Nor the Netherlands, judging by this series.

In this TV series there is a new 'dispute' on the zombie genre that I found both entertaining and exciting. I think this series is both innovative in terms of plot and environment, and that it has a good script and good actors. As in any zombie series, the effects must also be in place, and they certainly are here. But the 18-year-old limit is probably in place. This is not for the faint of heart.

If I were to find something that drags the series down a bit, it is that the plot becomes somewhat convoluted and circular during the 8 episodes. I actually think the series would have benefited from being compressed somewhat, made more tight and to the point. But by all means, this holds up a lot. And as the end of episode 8 of this first season more than suggests, there will be another season.

"Styx" is a captivating drama that expertly combines elements of mystery and horror, based on the internationally acclaimed novel by Bavo Dhooge. The series immerses viewers in an intriguing narrative centered around a morally ambiguous police officer, offering a fresh take on the crime and horror genres.

What sets "Styx" apart is its innovative approach to horror, weaving it into the storyline in unexpected ways that add depth and complexity. The strong performances and engaging pace keep viewers on the edge of their seats, making it an appealing watch for fans of suspenseful and dark-themed content.

If you enjoy series that explore intricate themes and deliver a healthy dose of horror, "Styx" is a compelling choice. With its mysterious plot and standout performances, the show offers a memorable viewing experience that combines thrills and tension in a unique way.
