Färjan

Book was great.unique setting of the ferry between swe/fin is a genius move but this series sufferred hard from tropes, bad judgement and a lot of material that felt old very fast. The whole "kill zombies with a twist of the neck" solution felt very dated to me and the scene with the mother still feeling for her daughter dispite all other victims being like angry vegetables is pretty lame.

Ok, so where to begin? Let's begin at the end. It's the best last episode I have ever watched in a scandi series ever. In a world where so many shows begin great, but end with a ... nothingness (looking at you Netflix) this show really did it all. All character arcs resolved such beautiful. Both heart gripping, sad and tragic Great visual pay-off with action, explosions and fire! What I love the most is that the characters feel so damn real. It's truly a slice of not just Sweden, but also Finland. And I think the British cast gave that extra touch. It starts great with a good little mysterious best, and then we get introduced the the world of Baltic cruises (if you have been on one - check it out, it's ever worse without vampires hahahah) builds up characters and then end with, as I said, the best ep in Swedish tv history.

Highly recommend it.

Okey where to begin? The vampires are lame and not scary at all, there is zero build up for it to being scary och thrilling. It feels like when something is about to happen you already listed it out yourself. The karaoke scene and when the Nadja girl sings are so tasteless and bad camerawork and bad angles plus it's such boring filler and the music doesn't even fit the vibe of a Finlands boat. Had to watch the second episode because my girlfriend had hope for this series, but yea. Even she thought it looked cheap and had really really lame and bad scenes.

Sorry for bad grammar and typing!

2/10 from Sweden SupremeCeltic Out!

So my last review was ignored by imdb, so I'm trying one more time.

This is a bad series filled with stereotypical characters that isn't interesting, and quickly becomes irritating. There's nothing scary, exciting or suspensful about this. Everything is advertised in advance. It's more like a soap from the 90s, trying to present itself as something new.

Off course it's filled with the usual bunch of characters that we are so used to nowadays, yes you know what I'm talking about. Some are perfect in every sense (as usual), and some are just there to be bad. Don't waste your time on this.

I was honestly surprised twice. First of all, that we even got a horror series from Sweden. Who would have thought? And second, much more important... that it's THIS good.

I've only seen the first two episodes, but I'm already hooked. Can't wait for the rest. The characters feel like real people, finally not a series about middle-class problems or rich families, but REAL people with real drama. And that makes it so much more intense when the horror kicks in. It's scary, it's emotional, and it's really well made.

I can't wait to see the rest. Finally a great horror series (they are hard to find I think)
