It's nice entertainment but it feels like they were not well documented enough on child abuse and neglect and the early maladapted schemes you develop from there, as an adult... which would have made for better and a more gripping character development regarding the Meadows siblings. Instead, it is barely brushed upon, just enough to provide an excuse for the characters to get involved.
The same goes about the Wendigo theme. Why does Paul elect to consult a Native about those cases and why does the old wiseman have a book open to the right page handy? We didn't need such a rush. Maybe we didn't need a full thesis on the theme, but a less clumsy story arch.

There is no story or character arc. The entire movie relies on punchline thrown at each other, which works until you start realizing there won't be any story.
The first two episodes are apart from the rest. I found the narrative to make better sense and to actually illustrate 'monsterland'. Then it kind of gets diluted, metaphors seem far fetched.
