This show is amazing. It looks amazing, the acting is great, the practical effects and make up are stellar. The Hobbit trilogy was trash compared to this. Everyone I've seen complaining about this is being a nerd. Don't be a nerd. Be grateful for Tolkien come to life on the screen. There's a fandom that is toxic and gate keeping. I would suggest this show to anyone who is a fan of a good drama. Obviously it's a fantasy show but the drama and character arcs are very well built and established. Season 1 is a huge build up and so far season 2 has been firing on all cylinders. I couldn't be happier with the show.

I dare anyone to go watch a Hellraiser sequel and dare to tell me they're better than this remake. The Hellraiser franchise hasn't had a big budget or an original script since maybe the third installment. The scripts were all made to be another movie idea that the production company just tossed Pinheads crew into for the sake of retaining the Hellraiser movie rights. Sure this movie isn't perfect, but It's a huge breath of fresh air for the franchise. The Lament configuration has a great deal more of its lore explained in this movie. You get to see how and why it torments it users. The ending is ambiguous in a good way, it totally pulls on the strings of cenobite creationism.

So don't listen to these jabronis rating this movie 1-5 stars. I'm giving it an 8 based on my sheer admiration of a decent sequel with some real production value, soundtrack, acting, it's expansion of the source material.

I am a huge fan of the novel and the original movie. I was entirely ecstatic when the American remake "Let me In" was released but unfortunately, it missed the mark in my opinion. Now, this series takes an entirely different direction than the source material but it captures the soul and spirit in the right way. I'm more than thrilled to see this show continue. The acting is solid, the pacing is solid. Very worth the time spent watching. I was skeptical at first but after the first episode I was immediately hooked and couldn't watch the following episodes fast enough. I'll most certainly be watching this over and over again.
