Darker Passages

Are all the things this show claims true? I really don't know. A quick Google search confirms some of the connections I seen in this show but that doesn't mean a whole lot. I only seen the episode about ghosts and it was a fun take on the subject. Some of the connections felt a little like they were overreaching but they are still valid.

I like these kind of mysterious documentary shows and I liked the interviewed subjects. I would really like to know where I can find more episodes because I would watch them. My review of the ghost episode is that it was an interesting thing to watch. These lesser known conspiracies and supernatural things are pretty cool all around.

If you are wondering what this shows equivalent would be if it were a magazine or newspaper it would be the tabloids. The show picks a topic and goes to town with it. It can be a little. What I can appreciate is the information and amount of detail in some of these theories. There are some nice connections made for those poor souls who want to believe this. At best Dark Passages was mildly entertaining. At its worst points it fell a little short of the mark. This docuseries still filled some time.

Best episode for me was the one about the cults followed by the one about ghosts. Not a bad independent production but not a great one either.

I enjoyed the previous show and really enjoyed this one. I only managed to catch 1 episode when I came across it but it was bigger and better then the last show. And I really liked that one so I'm happy this one seems to be bigger and better. The topic of the episode I seen was ghosts and I really liked this different take on the supernatural. There are some interesting concepts at work here. I'm really looking forward to watching the rest of the episodes when I find it again. I hope the content is as good as the episode I already seen. If you like supernatural and legends/conspiracy documentary type shows you'll probably like this one.

I don't think this show deserves an 8, but it probably deserves a little more than a 7, so my actual rating is 7.5. Darker Passages will not change the world or expand your mind to unimaginable levels, but it is a pretty alright show. Its expansion on some things, like ghosts and cults, and its addition of a paranormal twist to things you would not expect are fun ideas. This show is pretty much the same ilk as the Unexplained or Ancient Aliens and fits right in to the current explosion of TV documentary series. I watched it over the course of a week and would recommend it to people just looking for some easy entertainment who like this sort of thing.

DarkER Passages had some interesting theories this showing. Some of what was shown was enough to give me goosebumps. I also seen Dark Passages and although I liked it I didn't love it. For this continuation I think it was better then the original. Ghosts and Jim Jones and cursed things are all highlighted in these episodes and they just felt a little more interesting to me. The cast appear to be mostly the same with some new faces for good measure. I swear the person narrating this was the ghost of Robert Stack from Unsolved Mysteries. :D A good show if you're into creepy doc style shows. 7/10.
