Chapelwaite watchseries. First episode put forth the rest of the story. Its pretty pretty damn good. It gets dark as F quick and its I honestly like it a lot. Watched 3 episodes so far.
Gotta love a Stephen King story brought to life! Only Episode One but a great cast, production quality is good, and the storyline is intriguing! Can't wait to see more!
First things first, who is writing the 10 Star reviews? Are they paid for? Are they written by people involved with the show? Because this is nowhere close to a 10 rating. Not even.
Brody aside, this is not good TV or film or storytelling. I'm sure vampire fans, seeking a new binge might be excited, but this is weak.
Plotting, character development and pacing are all second rate. Anachronistic social behavior and social justice messaging is never good, but here it's beyond awkward.
And the source material? The Stephen King short story Jerusalem's Lot (not the full novel Salem's Lot) is almost completely abandoned.
If you're looking for a Stephen King inspired vampire drama watch the original 1970's TV adaptation with David Soul. What it lacks in special effects and production value it more than compensates with true scares and an unsettling story. The Rob Lowe headlined remake? Not so much.
It is another adaptation with a total disregard for the original material and historical accuracy. They butchered King's story.
The story does not matter anymore, as long as it is infused with generous doses of political proselytism and the usual not-so-subliminal-anymore attempt to brainwash the audience.....Ah, what a brave new world we live in!
Anyway, after all that, the whole thing becomes too sanitized, and what was supposed to be a horror story becomes a PG-13 educational video on how to think and behave.
Ok here is yet another problem when you get woke writer's being limp and appealing to a tiny minority.
So the main story starts in 1850, a 170 year's ago and within half an hour we have got one mention of racism and one female oppression comment. The fact that the writer's have added children and made them children of color, also two of the children are girl's, plus there is an obvious female protagonist. So why write as if making an issue? You basically created these characters to make issue of race and female oppression for no reason other than to get traction as they are not in the original text. Let the viewer judge on looks and whispering or clever direction if you must add additional characters. The viewer is more than aware of what happened 170 year's ago. They don't need spoonfeeding and they don't need boohoo's in every damn new series.
On the plus side the cast are superb, especially all the young players, the cinematography and direction are also excellent. Adding to the quality is the music and costume department.
All in all a great start, but only a 6/10 not everything is about race nor female oppression, especially when it's deliberately mentioned to characters who do not appear in the original novel.
