Fear

It's a run of the mill bill-payer for all concerned. Predictable garbage. Mick Ford the writer has done much better work, which wouldn't be hard in this case. The dialogue is old and the acting embarrassingly formulaic.

I can't believe the actors involved would go for this nonsense. It's just like so many similar themed series before it, but it has no redeeming qualities of itself. I'm struggling to find the necessary 600 words to complete this review.

Predictable, unchallenging, and an insult to the viewer. Like I said, it's earning money for them but in the most shameless way possible. Dreadful.

I saw some reviews saying this was predicable and mediocre. I honestly don't know what those people watched because we thought this three part-er was so, so good.

The acting was excellent. The music was excellent. The direction was on-point. It was different, and very UN-predictable. It made us uncomfortable and anxious, which it was supposed to do. Something like this could so easily happen to anyone. That feeling of being helpless and at someone else's mercy is not something I would relish at all.

Bravo to all the team behind Fear - it was refreshing and intelligent and we absolutely loved it.

Gave this a chance but...middle class family move into big house in I think, Glasgow. He Scottish she posh English and English kids. Dialogue dull and possibly written by AI. Creepy guy in basement, creepy from the off so there's no surprise when he turns out to be creepy. His so called business as an architect is, again, mechanical with buzz words and meaningless business expressions. Utterly without any atmosphere. She meets similarly entitled friend for lunch. Dull dull dull dull. No tension, no personality. I thought 'why doesn't he just kill them all with a rusty ax and get it over with' Good money is being spent on this pointless, bland, predictable dross.

Despite the exceptional performances of the actors, the plot was disappointingly predictable and resulted in a convoluted and meaningless conclusion. I was waiting for the plot twist however it never came. Why did the guy Jan have to bug the house? What's the reason behind the death of his sister? I just don't understand I'm so confused. I should never watch bothered watching this. Why did the Mum avoid passing the phone to his dad? Is it because the dad is a killer which is a joke itself? Ruined a very good actor wasted time don't bother watching it. Hopefully there won't be a season two that would be painful.

I spent the best part of 3 hours hoping the family would ignore the nuisance of a neighbour downstairs and get around to furnishing and decorating their house to make it a home instead of an austere cold shell. I was also wondering how much a window cleaner and a cleaner would cost. Yes it was that slow and boring to watch. At the end of 3 episodes it is not clear to me who were the characters I am supposed to like? Nor what is the moral of the story if there is one? Apart from being left wondering how much window cleaners cost in Glasgow, I think it would have been interesting to find out if the previous owners of the house had had similar experiences. My recommendation is 3 stars because there is only enough interesting content for 1 episode.
