Hellbound

Not sure why with the bad reviews here but it seems mostly on watched the first 2 eps. The story picked up starting from the 3rd eps. To me it is worth watching.

I watched this over a few weekends. I was lost as to what was going on until the final 2 episodes. If you stopped after a couple of episode you will not the final understanding of what is really happing to these people being "demonstrated". Even at the end of the series you still wonder what's really happening. I like the series because it is really making me think about religion, doctrine and how it is used and how it can be used to control people.

Do not watch the dubbed version, it is very bad and does not follow the Korean version. Watch the subtitles and it's a much better series, with much more emphasis on what it is trying to show.

The story is about broadening your outlook about things that can't be explained scientifically and considered supernatural. Instead of labelling every supernatural event as an act of God or an act of cleansing the sins of humans ,we should consider alternate versions as well , instead of suppressing the voice of people who try to decipher it. Asking questions doesn't make anyone against any religion . The story is about not having blind faith in the name of God .

I felt compelled to write a review based on the negative comments. I watched this over the course of a day and a half and thought it was very good. Now I understand that not everyone will enjoy the same types of shows but in no sane world is this show a 1-4.

For the reviewers that only made it through 2-3 episodes you missed the jump in the timeline. For the reviewers complaining about a lack of closure after six episodes, well thats because there will be a second season. It's a cliffhanger pretty standard.

I would recommend giving it a go. In my opinion it is better than most of what Hollywood has been putting out for years.
