This show really caught me by surprise. I was curious to check it out — the cast is pretty decent — but from that first episode, I was wowed by how dark and crazy and weird this show is. The music used throughout is fantastic too — got chills when they used that Jane’s Addiction track. This has gone from “yeah, I’ll probably check it out, but not expecting much” to my new weekly must-watch series.
This is not a good movie. Since I enjoyed the pilot for the sequel series, Dominion, I figured I’d finally give this movie a try. It’s actually interesting to see that they’ve come up with a cool concept for a TV show, but the movie that inspired is just boring and lifeless. It takes so damn long for anything to happen, and even once it starts happening, it’s just stupid action. There’s no good story, and the characters are dull. You definitely don’t miss anything by skipping the movie and just sticking with the TV show (and I’m not even convinced yet that I’ll be watching it for long).
