Don't Come Home

Randomly picked this Series as it was showing as recently launched in Netflix and went for binge watching. Best part is this being restricted with 6 episodes and no lead for next season.

Must admit that this series is a gem. Though the latter part of story is predictable, overall flow was organic. Screenplay was brilliant and the performance of every single character was top notch. Just loved the lead actress, police inspector role and the other character portrayed as Mom. Production quality of the whole series was fantastic and the writing as very good.

Just go for a Friday night binge watch and it's completely worth. See this series without any spoilers.

I binged this yesterday in one day, which is literally the first time I've ever done that. I absolutely loved the story, heart-shattering though it was in the end.

This does start out as your classical haunted mansion story, but takes a mind-blowing twist halfway through and turns into something completely different.

Be aware! You may be required to do some thinking of your own (refreshingly so!), which I can tell neither one of the two 1-star reviews (at the time that I'm writing this) felt either inclined, or able to, do.

Everything does get explained indeed. If you're walking away confused or with questions unanswered, you simply haven't watched it properly.

Always nice to come across something that dares to ask some mental effort of its viewers, as opposed to offering a story so boring and dumbed down that you need not engage with it in the least.

I just finished Don't Come Home, and it left me absolutely blown away. This is one of the best horror series I've watched in years, and honestly, it surpasses most recent Hollywood productions. The production quality is outstanding, with every scene crafted to build tension and keep you on edge. The story itself is refreshingly unique, layered with unexpected twists and a depth I rarely see in mainstream horror. Even without understanding Thai, the storytelling pulled me in completely. If you enjoyed series like The Haunting of Hill House, this one will definitely feel like a thrilling, must-watch discovery.

Don't Come Home: A Thai Mystery/Science Fiction TV series. A woman arrives at her ild childhood home in an isolated rural area. She has fled with her daughter from some danger in Bangkok.

A heavily pregnant police officer takes the case seriously. The house has strange equipment in the basement along with a very large generator. A mystery stretching back over 30 years involving time travel and seeming;y impossibly complicated time loops. Enough tension and action to keep you interested. The drama also deals with issues of domestic violence, Some interesting plot twists. Directed by Woottidanai Intarakaset, Written by Intarakaset and Aummaraporn Phandintong. Six episodes on Netflix. 7.5/10.

Brace yourself if you scared of ghost in the first few episode. Trust me it will not be a waste of time. You know the plot is solid when you binged the entire series and cannot stop thinking about it. I love the complexity of the characters. Their flaws is something inherently human enough you wanna root for them to excel in escaping whatever "demons" in life. The writing is 10/10, particularly the last bit when everything comes together. The last bit man... a standing ovation worthy of delivery. Three females leads what a brave choice, kudos to the team. Finally hopeful for Thai cinema, please continue to be brave.
