Dark Holler

Now, I know some people might be skeptical about the whole supernatural thing, and that's fair. But "Dark Holler" isn't trying to shove anything down your throat. It presents the family's story in a way that lets you ultimately decide for yourself what to believe; but seriously, the synchronicities are just super weird in chapters 4 and 5. And (at least for me), there were plenty of moments that had me going "wtf" and questioning my own reality ;-).

I will say that there were times when the series felt a bit lengthy, but looking back, I appreciate that the team behind "Dark Holler" didn't just cherry-pick the juiciest bits. They really tried to include (almost) every lead and piece of information they gathered over that crazy Thanksgiving weekend. It gives you a somewhat complete picture of what this family went through and lets you see the whole package.

So, if you're ready to dive into the unknown and explore the unseen world, then "Dark Holler" might definitely be worth checking out.

After finishing the first 2/5 episodes I really wasn't looking forward to the third. Sadly, the 3rd left me more uninterested in the 4th. So, having watched 3/5 episodes so far I'm confident in expressing that this documentary is not very interesting or compelling. I intend to finish the series, but overall I'm pretty uninterested. Even if it becomes more interesting and compelling taking three meandering episodes to get there is laborious. So far the first three episodes IMO could've been edited and contained in at least 2/3rds of the time I've spent watching. Too many interviews mulling over and restating the same supposed evidential incident per episode. Episode 1 40 minutes about odd behavior. Episode 2 40 minutes about one sound. Episode 3 40 minutes about unhinged behavior. The connections to the notion of demons (in which I do believe) feel very tenuous leaving it easy to naturally instead start considering mental illness.
