Gogol, a psychologic and mystical thriller set in early 19th century Russia.
Someone is killing young girls in a village in the boondocks.
Gogol goes as an assistant and scribe for a very important investigator from St. Petersburg. He has epileptic fits that show him important information about the crimes they are investigating. This does not please Gogol he cannot control the visions.
Demons ? maybe
Succubus/ghost women? sure.
Murders, plenty and with gore. some sexual scenes but not excessive or played for titulation.
Nudity. If you are frightened by the sight of a naked woman don't watch.
This is not a show for children or the easily offended.
Well worth a watch. It is on for free at this time on Amazon Prime.

What a wild mix of characters! Gogol's family servant, the doctor, the "police chief" and of course Gogol himself...all could be hilariously outrageous, including some very witty, sharp dialogue here and there.
If they could have maintained the more camp quality throughout it would have worked better.
But ultimately, the story, character decisions and development altogether became rather silly and (to me) not so enjoyable...particularly the religious and occult content. I round it up to 6.
But it is great to see a quality production from Russia.
Amazingly Gothic and we got into it easily, despite the darned subtitles. Some of the period series / movies we've seen have a postcard picture feel - there's distance, no involvement, they're flat.
Not with Gogol, but we were taken right into the historical settings; the Gothic feel and fabulous architecture. They're only asides to characterization, which really made the series watchable. Couldn't fault the story either, full of surprising twists and turns, never a dull moment.
Thoroughly enjoyed this series. In fact, I enjoyed it more the further on it got. I'd love there to have been a second season, but it doesn't look as though there is. (Despite the final episode appearing to offer a trailer for one). Yes, it's subtitled, but don't let that put you off.
There is a wide range of characters revolving around the eponymous lead, most of whom are initially presented as 'local yokels', but soon become more than that. Indeed, some of them are quite surprisingly so. Gogol's fainting spells are at first a bit of a thing, but thankfully he's able to overcome them as the plot moves along. It is very gothic in mood, and with various different aspects coming to light it's difficult to know which are the red herrings. Friends become foes and vice versa, but not in a fast or flashy manner. Who is the killer? Is the child with a tail a witch? Why is the ghost following Gogol? Why are the killings repeating after 30 years? There are lots of questions that need answering, and it all helps to draw you on.
There is a small amount of partial nudity, but it's not done gratuitously, it fits with the time and place. There is also some killing, head lopping, etc, but again, it goes with the territory, and is not overly gory. I knew nothing of this series prior to finding it on Amazon, and it didn't disappoint.
Really enjoyed. Typical Russian humour I.e the Watch Series.
