Uh oh, the early reviews are pretty bad.

Tim Goodman - Hemlock Grove is Netflix's first truly bad series.

Anyway, Hemlock is stiff where it needs to be fluid in its creative fearlessness. There’s a disconnect to it that is jarring -- as if it was once a puzzle that got dropped on the floor. But the missing pieces don’t create a mystery about their absence. Instead the show just feels haphazardly glued together.

One more gem

Outside of Liboiron and probably young Skarsgard, this is an effort that likely won’t pop up on a lot of résumés. Hemlock isn’t scary. It isn’t creepy. It barely makes sense, much less sense you want to decode. The mutant giant does a voiceover that sounds like it’s from an elementary school play. There’s a girl who maybe got pregnant by a spooky angel. Roman asks whether it was a real angel. The girl says, “How do you explain dancing to a person who has no legs?” And Roman says, “I have legs that won’t quit.”

Is there a bong big enough for this show?

The story is crap, the acting is crap, it is unintentionally campy and as I noted he says even if you smoked a bong full of weed you would not like it. The fact I love horror and perhaps he has different tastes wont make the acting better, the story good or the weed less required.

;_; I will still give it a go.

I am making the OT as we speak.

So what's the premise of this show?

Werewolves.

Do you need to ask anything else?

I was hoping it'd be good. Well, at least Teen Wolf starts up soon.

I'm so sorry, Nemesis.

I was hoping it'd be good.

As far as I know, critics have only seen the first two episodes (like with House of Cards), so there's a chance that it could get better as it goes on.

Damn. Bad news from the reviews.

 

[Fantastical]

Shame, but I could see it coming. Onward to Arrested Development.

Somehow I'm not surprised at all. The trailer, the transformation scene, and Eli Roth's past filmography didn't really hint at quality horror.
