La última noche en Tremore Beach

Hands down, one of the best scripts ever written, just phenomenal. It's very slow, you need to get through first 3 episodes before the story starts to reveal. And even then it will take you through a labyrinth of characters' stories and lifes, slowly making you wander what exactly are you watching.. It plays with you by tricking you to think it's one genre or another, you don't what to expect and where it all goes- until in the last few episodes the main story shines. And it is slow on purpose - it gives you a chance to think about all the possible dots you need to connect, it makes you live through the story in the way that will make you scream in the end when that plot twist is going to reveal. That plot twist is totally worth it. This is incredibly enjoyable if you make it through the first couple of episodes.

From the very first scene, I was drawn in by the mystery and the beautiful world created by Oriol Paulo. His choice of camera angles, haunting music, and hints of something dark set a chilling, gripping tone that made me want to keep watching. Paulo's masterful use of foreshadowing is like that of Hitchcock, Godard, or De Palma. He brings his own unique noir style, layered with tension and nuanced visual storytelling. In thid, he closely aligns with Guillermo del Toro, making scenes that are both visually stunning and deeply immersive. In this series pay attention to the many slight, but deliberate inconsistencies (how doors open, wet or dry hair, the changing weather and varied animal behaviors). I also love the pace, neither too fast or slow. As a fan of psychological thrillers, this series resonates perfectly, hitting every note with precision and artistry-keeping me eager for what lies ahead. If you liked The Changeling, you will also enjoy this series.

"Última noche en Tremor" starts strong and manages to draw you in with its atmosphere. It has that psychological thriller vibe that makes you question everything, and the setting is really well done. Javier Rey is great-he conveys the character's anguish without overdoing it.

What didn't fully convince me is that, at times, the series drags on a bit too much. Some scenes feel repetitive and could have been trimmed without affecting the story. Even so, it remains entertaining and has some interesting twists.

I liked the ending, though it's not one of those jaw-dropping conclusions. Overall, it's a solid thriller, well-directed, and engaging, but with a somewhat uneven pace. If you enjoy this type of story, it's worth watching.

The cinematography, the locations and the score are something else. Good idea, but extremely drawn out. Episode 3 or 4 I figured out the baddie, was suspecting an episode earlier. I am a fan of Oriol previous work, they were all movies mind you, so would stick to a more contained format. Judy episode in particular was way too long and a hard watch, would get the point across in a 15 minute flashback but oh well. Well acted, well shot and again, I really liked the score which elevated the whole thing. Has all the usual tropes but I think they were handled effectively. It's really hard to fool me, which I don't like and when something genuinely takes me for a ride ( something like Behind her eyes, which was a pleasant surprise) I'm all for it. On that topic I even figured out his Invisible Guest twist, and was disappointed since it was recommended to me as a mindblowing twist, alas. This was not the case here, but the first few episodes kept me intrigued. All in all a solid watch, but too long.

This series is actually a psychological story that explores the influence of the mother on the main character, a common theme in psychology. The series has a great soundtrack, and the cinematography is excellent. However, the plot could have been better-there are many illogical and unfinished elements. What was particularly irritating is that the main character whispers throughout every conversation with the other characters, which literally drove me crazy. Still, the series is watchable, though nothing exceptional. Additionally, the landscapes where the series was filmed are truly stunning and take your breath away.
