The killing kind

Beautiful series Intense plot, full of twists and turns Perfectly acted by the entire cast, primarily Emma Appletone ( Ingrid ) and Colin Morgan ( John Webster ) The two create a state of emotional tension that leads the viewer to want even more You fear for Ingrid and at the same time you would trust your own life to John The two have created fantastic chemistry Colin Morgan is truly special, you can't help but love him His talents are innate It's not just bravura, no, it's something beyond bravura.

His John manages to draw you in, to make you feel loved Would you trust him?

Certainly Colin Morgan once again demonstrated his immense talents.

Story fairly gripping, almost too many twists and turns, some implausibility.

Emma Appleton acting breathless wide eyed stilted , not a fan.surely there are others who could play this role better?

Colin Morgan a great actor, versatile and very creepy in this!

Some of the twists and turns a bit silly really but I went along with it and watched it all.

I didn't guess the ending/ denouement which says good things about the series.

I wouldn't watch it again but I enjoyed it overall.

As is the way nowadays a lot of it set in the dark so you can hardly follow the story/ action/ characters.

Had to watch it with subtitles on in order to not miss any dialogue .

Great acting performances Tense, intense, destabilising story An excellent book made for an almost perfect series, I say almost because they should have worked a bit more on the ending but this does not detract from a tense thriller where truth and lies chase each other Where love borders on obsession Emma Appletone and Colin Morgan brought to life two characters who, at a certain point, take you into their fears and delusions.

Episodes follow one another and you can't stop watching: YOU HAVE TO KNOW The need to understand whether to trust or not The need to believe those eyes that speak in silence Thank you Thank you for everything Thank you Emma and thank you Colin.

Gave this a try because of the very high score... quickly realised that the score was based on a handful of fake reviews, and because this is buried on a streaming service nobody has, there probably won't be any real ones any time soon. It seems like a case of a book (that I haven't read) translating very badly to the screen. There isn't much character development. I was constantly asking questions as so much felt unlikely out unbelievable. It's also very cheaply made, with overuse of a mainly green colour palette to try and make it look 'cinematic'. If you've watched this and thought it was guff too then please do review it honestly and help others get a more balanced score.

Let's start by saying that I had already read Jane Casey's book and devoured it in two days.

Hence the high expectations for the TV series of the same name, The Killing Kind, starring two talents of the calibre of Emma Appletone and Colin Morgan.

The series diverges from the book on a few points and has a completely different ending, an ending that at first left me a little bewildered but then, reasoning with a cool head, I realised that it is absolutely consistent with the manipulative charm of John Webster (Colin Morgan)

I finished the six episodes all in one go and often found myself gasping for breath, almost moments of apnoea so much was the tension.

The two protagonists brought to the screen a set of feelings that make you not want to take your eyes off the screen even for a moment.

The anxiety and insecurities conveyed by Ingrid (Emma) envelop you and you feel her fear The charismatic charm of John ( Colin ) attracts you like a bee to honey, you can't help but love, you can't help but desire, you can't help but trust him And that says a lot about Mr Morgan's acting qualities But can John Webster be trusted?

His charisma says: yes I love you, you can trust me Who knows if he'll be the right choice?
