New Netflix series coming Friday from Mike Flanagan (The Haunting of Hill House and Bly Manor). Getting good reviews.
 
Well this was really good. It’s very very Stephen King.

the old age makeup didn’t work for most and it created this weird thing where I kept wondering what was wrong. The doctor’s mother especially was really poorly done.

Also one too many speeches. Some of it could have been cut just to make the important ones hit better.

But all in all very enjoyable and he knows how to hit an emotional moment.

Bev Keane is a great villain (very Marsha Gay Harden in The Mist) and Hamish Linklater did so well in typeset sermons.

Very much recommended.
 
I'm really enjoying this, but yes, it's way too long. This could have been told in five episodes. It's nice to get to know the characters, but some of the monologues are tedious. The endings of episode 5 and 6 were amazing though. Still need to watch the final episode, wonder how they'll manage to fit in another three (or more) 5-minute long monologues...
