Into the Dark

I really enjoy these horror movies from hulu. They are just good, classic horror movies. Nothing spectacular or amazing, or groundbreaking, but good enough I enjoy them and want to keep watching them. Kudos to Blumhouse.

These are all individual stories as part of the Moniker " Into the Dark "

Some for me are good Some not so good and others average.

Overall the acting is solid and the cinematography is again solid but nothing outstanding, serves its purpose type stuff.

Episode I liked Ep2, Ep4,Ep7, Ep10 Average Ep5, Ep6, Ep8, Ep11 Didn't like Ep1, Ep3, Ep9

Overall not bad, a bit lightweight but of some interest with a few I was really drawn into.

This show is great. Every episode starts a little bit boring because it tries to set the characters and how every episode is connected to the holiday of the month. Some episodes are not as good as they could be like Treehouse (1x06), School Spirit (1x11) and Pooka! (1x03). But some of them are a must watch like Pure (1x12), Flesh & Blood (1x02), All That we destroy (1x08) and my personal favorites are New Year, New You (1x04), The Body (1x01) and Down (1x05). Give it a try to some episodes. They're good to kill some time and to watch some horror movies of the holiday you're in.

Too many of the installments in this series have taken an inherently ridiculous premise and tried to turn it into serious horror. This one knows it's silly and leans in. Fast-paced, funny slasher schlock.

If you're watching this first episode and are into all things horror you are probably thinking haven't I seen this already Well the answer is yes! This is almost the exact same story that occupied a segment from Patient Seven (same segment writer) The story is a bit more fleshed out and a bit bloodier but still no excuse to do the same thing again in less than 2 years for a horror series - there are plenty of horror writers out there looking for a break without recycling stuff (well I supposes it works for Hollywood) That said it was watchable - again - as it was slightly better than the short and some nice deaths

Lower rating has I had only recently seen Patient Seven

Edit July 2020 - upgrading my score from 3 to 5 after part way thru season 2 There's some real turkeys in the show but some passable horror stories especially in season 2 - A Nasty Piece of Work was a pleasant surprise
