Unspeakable

Gripping docudrama of a dark time in Canadian history that should be part of the school curriculum. This should never happen again.

A story that needed to be told and it was told brilliantly by Cooper and the actors. Heartfelt and beautifully filmed. Small budget with amazing result.

An eye-opening, heart-opening series, beautifully written, shot and acted. This compelling story of Canadian/world history, based on true events, is a must-watch. I couldn't recommend it more highly.

Well, Canada says 'Hold My Beer, Eh?'. It is unfathomable to see how despicable humans can be towards each other. I understand this production embellishes a bit for greater reaction but the facts, and the ignorance of facts, tell a tale of a global population that eat their own young. Now, decades later after the events of Unspeakable, Canada is viewed as just as vile as America in how it treats its own citizens. Centuries from now History will teach our ancestors how putrid the human race was in the 20th and 21st Centuries.

I'm 4 episodes in. The message here is a complex and powerful one. I relate because I grew up in the 80's and I remember the stigma and fear that came along with this outbreak. I'm loving the actors...maybe I've watched a bit too much Scifi in my time but once I recognized Michael Shanks behind that beard I was all in. Then when Aaron Douglas showed up after a few episodes it got even better. Michael/Aaron....you guys rock!
