On episode 4 (but IMDb won't let me rate it yet for some reason) where it seems the show begins to really pick up. Haven't ever read any Stephen King, and I've liked some of his previous TV adaptations, some not so much. In this one, so far, things have been layered on to the drama/mystery very nicely, creating a very dark cool & creepy atmosphere.

No complains about the acting/dialogue from me at all yet, some people will complain about anything though.

Very very much looking forward to how it proceeds!

I ask the question in the title because it seems that at the point in history in which this show is set, everyone is still whispering. It must have been an amazing day when someone finally yelled out HEY! Speak up people!! I'm all for historical accuracy but come on.

It's not a bad show.. monsters are scary, atmosphere spooky, the story is ok but perhaps a bit drawn out. The let down is this constant whispering in every piece of dialogue. Sometimes a hushed tone would make sense, but not in every damn scenario.

Could have been fantastic, but the constant whisper fest sadly brings it down to a 'almost didn't finish it'

Good adaptation of the stephen king short story Jerusalem lot.

Who is not averse to the setting of the 19th century. Will have a good time on the show.

Finally someone who understands the spirit of the Stephen King books has arrived. I was very happy when I saw the name Adrien Brody as an actor in this project. My impatience increased when I found out that he was the producer. The quality of Adrien Brody shows itself in the first two episodes.

If you're looking for classic horror and you're not a fan of scare scenes like me, you can give this one a try. I like Adrian Brody, haven't watched him in a long while and I enjoyed it. A good actor is a good actor! The show has this beautiful gothic atmosphere. The story is cliché and could definitely be much better, and the pace is pretty slow but I did watch the whole ten episodes in the end. I missed this kind of show, got tired of horror that tries to shake you and get you almost sick. There are still many gore scenes in this, beware, but nothing that made me want to turn my screen off. Halfway into the show, there's a revelation which I didn't expect but liked, and the ending was pretty good and interesting to me, part of it reminded me of an older show that I liked. Maybe better casting for some of the characters could have been done but it was still good.
