Lukasz's Reviews > Girls Complete Collection TP

Nothing ever happens in Pennystown. Until it does and the clones (?) of a naked woman swarm the city and try to tear any living woman to pieces. 

And it all starts with Ethan, a disillusioned young man whose day went from bad to worse. Too much booze and failing in life will do that to you. When he meets a mysterious (and naked) woman, he tries to help. His help initiates a doomsday scenario. 

The visual storytelling is on point, and it kept my eyes glued to the page. The story moves at a breakneck pace and it fits the sudden apocalypse narrative. I also think brothers Luna handled the themes of the story (fear/survival in the face of the unknown, repressed anger, family drams) well.

With that said, some characters make decisions that add to the drama but are extremely stupid. The fast pace keeps things exciting, but it sometimes sacrifices character development for the sake of cheaper thrills and explicit content.

Despite this, I binged the series in one day and found it both gripping and maddening. If you’re up for a story that toes the line between horror, sci-fi, and social experiment, and don’t mind yelling at fictional characters, then Girls might be a story for you.
