Spectros

I'm not sure why people are giving this show bad reviews. They try to translate as best as they can and I think they did a good job. There's 2 cultures being merged while a third one watches it, and doesn't understand. I love the storyline. It's unique. I guess it's one of those things, if you love it you really love it and if you don't, you hate it.

Just finished the first episode, and I'm excited to start the next one. The character introductions gave a juicy taste of the spirit of each one, enough to draw you in, wanting to know more. It showcased the basic rules of the world, and introduced you to a freak-fest of spooks, kooks, and potential villains.

The lovely dangling threads of possible arcs and stories were wonderful, as were the interweaving lines of the culture and energy of Sao Paolo.

I'm a sucker for the interweaving of multiple cultures into a story, doubly so when that story has creepy dolls, witch queens, wrathful wraiths, and "wait a second, isn't that dude dead?" The cinematography was a gift, and while the dialogue hasn't been particularly inspiring, I've enjoyed every minute of it.

Obviously being on the first episode means my review will change quite a bit as I go. But for now, I'm loving the supernatural-horror-suspense-drama of Spectros.

I do not understand the low rating this show received. It has a nice story, good characters and acting, and an unusual background. The story happens in a Japanese neighbourhood in Brasil- I loved the filming location. The characters speak in Portuguese and ocassionally in Japanese. In a nutshell - three teenagers become involved in a necromancer's plot and reluctantly try to save the world. The show is not really scary (I'm very sensitive), and is more character-driven. Try it, it's nice (and do not quit just after the first episode).

I personally loved this show. There is nothing better than a mystery and when you add horror to that you have the upper most level! This is an original and has a great story line. It bit of romance, culture, ghost story and family fun all folded up in mystery. If you don't like dubs, then stay clear, because your eyes will fixate on the speech movement and you will lose the big picture. I love it and am hoping for a second season. Netflix has brought many of these little gems to us and I am very grateful; especial during lock down!

I really loved this show. Binged watch it in one go and wished there had been more. Padal was my favorite character and was portrayed so well it reminded me of the guys I grew up with and loved so much. Good job on this storyline too! I felt it was really unique and well done.
