Las chicas de Chapel Croft

Samantha Morton is brilliant as always, but the messy sub-plots and indecisive supernatural story line create too many loose ends and unanswered questions.

The motivation of most of the various murderous and sadistic characters are not explained, nor are most of their actions.

The supernatural visions of burning girls, ghosts, the dead rabbit / bird theme, lights going out and doors banging shut, and the cursed village plot in general, is clearly designed to build suspense and keep viewers watching, but then is left dangling with zero explanation, other than a brief moral subplot.

This is a decent rainy Sunday slow burner with a bit of a twist, but overall has a frustrating finish and is ragged around the edges.

Samantha Morton kept me hooked, rooting for her all the way. Like others have said, I didn't see the end coming at all

Even though there were 6 episodes it kept my interest. Nice to see a uk drama as well which can compete with the us shows, the locations show off the uk countryside to an advantage, can we see more uk dramas.

Great plot, and characters, the twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat. And made me jump. Very binge worthy,

The acting was superb, I would like to see more shows like this please. Shows with substance, good story acting and whilst I like us shows uk ones are good too.

I'm not quite sure what to make of this. It started off over the top hammy with the eerie music and flashes of ghosts. Also far too many weird 'horror' scenes that turned out to be Morton's character having a nightmare. But it was fun.

Then it turned murder mystery and forgot about the supernatural stuff. That was good too, but far too many parts were glossed over or didn't really make sense.

It's as if they came up with a lot of great story ideas, decided to throw them all in the pot but just starting ignored them when they started getting too convoluted.

I'm off to read the book now. Maybe that'll shine some light on the whole thing.

TLDR? Very enjoyable and watchable but expect it to end up in a way that makes you go, 'Uh okay, but what about...' and then head onto IMDB to look at trivia in the hopes that'll fill in some gaps.

I was sceptical about this show but wow it left my mind blown, very clever series and I most certainly did not see that huge twist coming in the last episode! I would go as far as saying this is the best series I have watched in a long time.

Loved the fact it had a very small but impressive cast, very cleverly produced and the writer should also take so much credit for writing a masterpiece.

Samantha Morton is one of my favourite actresses and she did not disappoint in this show, I was also super impressed with Conrad Khan, he played his role so well and he has a great future in front of him.

If you are in the mood for a thriller mystery, then I think this is above average, but not spectacular. Admittedly, I am a bit biased because I enjoy, and purposely watch most all of Samantha Morton's work where she gets to stand out. The first episode was a little soft getting into it and I was concerned she was going to have a bit of a vapid character role, but in episode 2 and beyond it gets a bit more engaging and we see a little more expected contribution. I had figured out about 60 percent of the mystery pretty quick, but there is enough concealment to keep some surprises at the end that fits together well and makes a good mini-series binge.
