Seizure

From the first episode it was easy to see that this would be a pile of rubbish! Nothing made any sense. Characters appear on the scene without any context or background to let the viewers know who they are or what their role is in the series. The scenes are randomly stuck together without any continuity, so there;s no way to tell what's happening. As the series progresses, it does not get any better. The dialog is stupid, consisting of short disjointed sentences that add little to the story. There is a lot of water and flooded basements, and everything is just very dirty and grungy. By the third episode, it was time to stop watching and move on to something else. Where does rubbish series like this even come from?

I don't know what I just watched. Nothing was explained. The eels. Supernatural? I don't know. You couldn't tell. Don't waste your time on this show.

A story of two police detectives who want to find out how four young men died andthe fifth disappeared. The two police detectives are both with deep personal and family problems, which help explain their motivation to be detectives. While the crime in question is being slowly investigated, a serious of bizarre events infuses this crime drama with an atmosphere that helps tell more about detectives, making their personalities deeply carved and believable. Supporting characters of Max's wife (portrayed by Selome Emmetu) and Sander's brother (portrayed by Marius Kolbenstvedt) are keeping the story glued to bleak reality of the lost opportunities and bitter losses in life. While the pace of drama development is a bit slow, it allows viewer to think of motives of all characters. Photography could have been somewhat better, but some special effects are above the standard. With all the differences in story and style, Besatt can be described as the Nordic version of Twin Peaks - but without those humorous episodes.

Anders Baasmo saves this series, the rest of cast is unskilled... Anders Danielsen Lie did a great job in ""22 July", but his carachter in this series is portayd very similar and that is just wrong.. Police methods have not been checked by the scriptwriters. specially in episode 4 its really bad.. And all the pc stuff they put in to this didnt help the show I wanted to turn this off many times, but had to finish it.

This was a great series to watch, typical of so many non english speaking series today. well acted and produced.
