Hell Motel

I tried to watch this, because it sounded like an interesting enough premise. But, as is so often the case in horror, even a solid premise cannot compensate for poor execution.

I was able to overlook the dodgy opening scenes, with the jarring time-jump filled with random characters in medias res with a burning RV.

But then an otherwise perfectly legit-seeming hobby-Satanist started to consistently pronounce "Baphomet" as "Baphomé", like its a fine Bordeaux that pairs well unbaptized baby meat or a brand of infernal bath beads, I decided that if the series creators cared that little about the content of their show then I cared even less.

The man with long hair and beard who was interrogated by the police, was the husband of a woman who was killed in the motel 30 years ago. She left her husband to go on honey moon with her highschool love!! Now the old husband is back to take revenge !

It can be either the chef or the professor .

If you are interested in crime mysteries, I highly recommend you to watch this.

Let me know what are your guesses about the killer. I could make a guess based on episode 3. If you like it, I also recommend you to watch " nine bodies in a Mexican morgue" which has almost the same plot and story line.

I watched Slasher for the gore and the acting was sub par but this is unbearable. The writing is unimaginative and the acting is unwatchable. This is just a complete waist of time and as a horror fan, I'm disappointed to say the least. The horror genre is almost inherently cheesy which I like but this is just embarrassing. Get rid of 95% of the cast and maybe pay a little more for some actual talent. There are maybe 2 decent actors but that's it. Even so, most of the dialogue is just completely cringey and awkward and it seems as if they wrote much of it in a hurry with no standards. Don't waste your time on this series. I'm ashamed I did.

Honestly, I think Hell Motel deserves a much higher rating than 5.4. It had a really interesting and fresh concept that kept me curious the whole time. The story was engaging, and the ending was actually satisfying - something many shows struggle with! It's definitely underrated and worth checking out.

So far I like this season better than the Ripper season. It is an interesting premise and I love the backdrop and setting. The characters are interesting and the acting is decent as are the kills. I am engaged so far and look forward to seeing future episodes. It's too bad they are not dropped all at once as I would definitely would binge this. I'm not sure if this is Slasher season 6 or a separate Anthology but I would actually like to see both. I hope they do have a season 6 separately. I like also that they have the same or many of the same actors for recurring seasons. It is almost like American Horror Story in that regards. So far I've been very pleased with the series.
