Bloodride

Naturally with being an anthology some stories are going to be more enjoyable than others, but it was a very solid overall enjoyable horror series. I think some horror stories work much better being shorter. So the series format of these works very well and none of the stories overstay their welcome.

Another reviewer said "Twilight Zone in colour" and the way they all learn a lesson during their episode, and then get on this bus. I can really see that. I found it all very enjoyable though.

The rating of Bloodride is currently at 6.7 at the moment. Surprisingly really low, with average episodes rating 6. Bloodride is actually pretty cool. It's not an extra, big budgeted nor have high quality writing. But it's still amusing, i really enjoyed watching it. And there's always a "twist" ending that was unexpected (at least for me). The story is "different" and simple, It's not super gory or intense. It's worth checking out. Definitely underrated, on IMDb level, Bloodride should at least get a 7.8

No idea why the bus is involved, but this is an anthology of dark stories, a bit similar to "Inside no. 9" (though not quite as good). The genre varies nicely: from classic supernatural horror to psychological thriller. It's not exceedingly gory, and doesn't have jump scares.

Karakterdrap, I thought, was wonderful. For the other episodes something that makes the rating 7 rather than 8 or 9 is that some of the twists are a little half-baked. First, some of them become obvious a little earlier than the plot suggests they should. Second - and most important - after we see the twist, there's not enough time and context given to fully appreciate it. It's missing the foreshadowing that would make you go "oooh... that explains that little detail earlier". At the same time it doesn't spend any time after the twist to show the alternative side of the story that we hadn't seen (it's usually just given in one or two sentences), so I'm often left with questions that I wish were explored a little more.

I didn't hear anything about this show. I just saw it on netflix shows. Since I love horror movies, I thought I'd give it a try. I like how the episodes are only 30 mins. It gets right to the point and doesn't drag on. Some of the episodes were better then others, I really liked Sarafice , 3 sick brothers and the old school best! I also enjoyed the intro, it's so spooky!

This Norwegian series is made up of six unrelated stories. Each one follows characters as things get increasingly creepy and lead to a 'twist' ending. Like another reviewer I was reminded of 'Tales of the Unexpected'... as with that series the twists aren't too surprising but that didn't spoil my enjoyment. There were a few gory moments but nothing that is likely to disturb horror fans. Inevitably some episodes are better than others but I still enjoyed them all. Many had scenes that made me wince and one genuinely gave me the chills. I'd certainly recommend this to fans of the genre; if you don't like it you won't waste too much time as the episodes are only thirty minutes long.

The series is available both in the original Norwegian, with subtitles if needed, and dubbed. I watched the first episode in English and wasn't too keen on the dubbing; so much so that when I realised there was a subtitle option I re-watched it and enjoyed it more.
