Feria: La luz más oscura

I will not say that this is one of the best webseries on NetFlix. If you have watched all other good dark series than you can give it a try. If you have not till now than this series can wait. I found Series like Scream , Sinners better than this. But overall it is worth your time.

The idea was there and overall the acting was good but the main character 'Sophia' was extremely frustrating to watch as she was just stupid and stroppy the whole way through. If she wouldn't have been so annoying I think I would have enjoyed it a lot more. The ending wasn't great either- wonder if there will be a season 2.

The plot is interesting and pretentious, but several caricatured performances, confusing script and bad effects leave the result far below expectations.

European settings always work great for mystery stories, especially during the 90s before everything turned global. Story here is about two sisters living in an isolated, conservative town that has a dark secret they keep for few decades. The story has potential and is interesting at times, even though not completely original. However, the acting leave a lot to be desired as the character don't act in a way that make a lot of sense and sometimes are overdramatic and over acting.

I love this kind of show, like Archive 81 another recent Netflix show. However this show tries to be a lot of things and the writing/script needs to be re-organized. It reveals too much too early by the time it reached the second half all the momentum is gone.

First half and second half feels like they are made by different people, first half has a lot of nudity and gore while the second half feels like Stranger Things.

Having said that I'll recommend this show if you like occult horror shows like Archive 81 and Paraiso/Paradise on HBO Max.
