Hell Motel

So admittedly I went in to this series with minimal expectations since it's difficult to find a decent horror movie or series anymore and I am frequently regretting having wasted my time. But I've been pleasantly surprised with Hell Motel. The characters are interesting with their own backgrounds that range from fandom to mental illness. There is some pretty violent scenes/kills and I've been very impressed with the actors. Hoping it finishes strong. My only critique is that I was hoping for a deeper dive on the character's histories. They do have flashbacks but they are not too in depth. But there isn't a clear guess for the killer or killers. And depending on how it plays out, I might rewatch it to see if it lines up. But I'd recommend giving it a whirl, it moves pretty steady so you won't tune out or wind up on your phone. Only a few more episodes to go!

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.

The first seven episodes were decent enough leaving the final episode that would reveal all and explain who the killer was and why the killings took place. Had that been the case I would have probably given Hell Motel an 8 or even a 9 rating. Unfortunately, the final episode revealed nothing about the identity of the killer and made the watching of the preceding 7 episodes a complete and utter waste of time. I did learn one thing from watching the series, and that was that Genevieve DeGraves is absolutely gorgeous. :P.

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.

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.
