Lieux morts

I was not expecting a lot going into this. But this show managed to surprise and delight me. It's a very good mystery/paranormal show that deals not only with ghosts but with many other elements of South African folklore.

The writing is surprisingly good. It's not perfect nor is it flawless, but it is good. I especially liked that it managed to keep 1 story arc going for the entire season and at the same time have the "monster of the week" format going. This show is smarter than you think. I was actually fooled a little bit by the first 2-3 episodes. My advice would be to keep watching before you make up your mind if this is good or bad.

The acting could have been a little bit better. The directors did a good job getting good performances out of the main character, but some of the supporting cast could have done better.

And again, you have to understand what this is. It's a low budget horror television show. It's not a big budget movie. Not every episode is going to be amazing. But enough of them are that I would recommend this show to anybody who likes supernatural themed entertainment.

A very enjoyable film. I started watching having no expectations as i have never heard of it before. Found it randomly on Netflix and i gave it a shot. Well, it was worth it. Very nice plot, good cinematography/ photography. The story is well told. The characters have a certain depth. Acting wasn't good at first but after the second episode gets better. I would love to watch another season of this.

I loved the MC, Will Stone, a horror writer. He's a different take on the usual hero's we're normally shown. His acting is stellar and the character is relatable. I also enjoyed the comic relief in the character of Joe, the cynical ex-cop. I initially struggled with the female character and her constantly open mouth but she grew on me. All in all I enjoyed the growth of the characters friendship even more than the "thriller" aspects of the story. I thought the costumes and CGI could have been better, that's why it's not a 10 for me.

Great series! My type of show to binge on. I highly recommend it.

Enjoyable new series. Different setting is fun and entertaining. I like the main characters and find their interactions amusing. The ghost stories are nothing particularly new and the effects are ok - it's just a fun new show. I'm hoping for a 2nd season!
