Viaje sangriento

Naturally with being an anthology some stories are going to be more enjoyable than others, but it was a very solid overall enjoyable horror series. I think some horror stories work much better being shorter. So the series format of these works very well and none of the stories overstay their welcome.

Another reviewer said "Twilight Zone in colour" and the way they all learn a lesson during their episode, and then get on this bus. I can really see that. I found it all very enjoyable though.

After reading some reviews here I was a bit surprised of the low ratings. I actually really enjoyed this serie and found it hard to stop watching. Yes there is a lot of blood and deaths but every episode has such a surprising element in it.

I was looking for something new to watch, and I am a horror fan, so I was happy to see this new horror anthology series appear on Netflix. I found it very easy and fun to watch :) I didn't find it to be scary for me, but I personally don't need horror to be to enjoy it. I liked each different short story, so much so that 6 episodes wasn't enough for me! I really hope there will be a second season.

Even with some well known horror tv and movie tropes and a couple of obvious story lines apparent 5 mins in it is very entertaining. My guess on the obvious plots may have to do with the money men not believing in the project, the unknowns involved or that they wanted well worn horror movie/tv (I hate this word) tropes with some lost in translation fears on top. I think the talent (actors, directors, writers) all understood that when it comes to horror the basics monsters mental illness/serial killers are great and easy to do in many ways, new and culturally diverse are appreciated for showing us new terrors mix in with are own. I'm not going to pretend to be an expert on Norwegian TV/movie Horror or even American horror but when I saw any of the truly odd 1950s Italian horror movies I was immediately drawn in to what the weirdness was and sometimes I didn't read the translation or just forgot they were there. While i understand wanting to making something appeal to as broad a group as possible that's not as important when it involves horror. I do have one major issue overall the music was distracting and did not add to the experience or as far as I'm concerned compliment the story in any way but it a small part of the picture. If you generally like horror anthology in all their forms you'll like this if you bare with a couple less original story lines before it gets going telling new ones

This Norwegian series is made up of six unrelated stories. Each one follows characters as things get increasingly creepy and lead to a 'twist' ending. Like another reviewer I was reminded of 'Tales of the Unexpected'... as with that series the twists aren't too surprising but that didn't spoil my enjoyment. There were a few gory moments but nothing that is likely to disturb horror fans. Inevitably some episodes are better than others but I still enjoyed them all. Many had scenes that made me wince and one genuinely gave me the chills. I'd certainly recommend this to fans of the genre; if you don't like it you won't waste too much time as the episodes are only thirty minutes long.

The series is available both in the original Norwegian, with subtitles if needed, and dubbed. I watched the first episode in English and wasn't too keen on the dubbing; so much so that when I realised there was a subtitle option I re-watched it and enjoyed it more.
