Something strange is definitely going on and it gave me “From” vibes
If you look past the insufferable lead child actor, you’ll be delighted by Yvonne Strahovski, who was a powerhouse actress in The Handmaid’s Tale. The second episode was definitely the cliffhanger and I was definitely intrigued.
I want to see where the episode goes
I feel like binge-watching it, if only they had released more episodes for a clear first season. I wouldn’t be surprised if the show got boring because the writing isn’t that great, but the actors did the best they could.
The show would be scarier if the child actor wasn’t so insufferable
I wish someone like Mike Flanagan was behind this because the child actor definitely needs to develop his craft. The final season of “What We Do in the Shadows” is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres of this month.
