This show was epic, thrilling, intense, dark, mysterious. It draws you in deeper each episode, and leaves you shocked.

For those who loved Stranger Things, this show will be up your alley. It's a dark and more adult driven idea, but I'm sure you will find similar concept in it.

All of the actors and actresses absolutely nailed it. The music was incredible.

The cinematography and color grading was mesmerizing.

They created a film-like look that brought nostalgia to a modern series.

I hope to see more of this and more series like it in the future.

Christopher Garetano is a master story teller who brought to our attention one story from the disturbing past of the U.S. Government. From what we know, the Government has been involved in the experimentation of people without their consent, or knowledge (MK-Ultra) - so is it so hard to believe that they would do the same with Montauk? Though it is difficult to find hard evidence, Garetano interviews multiple individuals who all speak of the same atrocities. Perhaps it is coincidence, but knowing the nature of our Government and its history, it is not difficult to believe them to be true.

Whether you believe it to be true or not, it is still fascinating and well done. The narrative, cinematography, music, color grading, and structure are all professional and ahead of their time. In fact, the hit series Stranger Things was going to be titled Montauk before they settled on the name we all know today. Stranger Things was undoubtedly inspired by Garetano's masterful vision and story.
