The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Durham Country, Season 3 (2010)

Starring: Hugh Dillon, Laurence Laboef

Premise:
Season 3 jumps a head in time a bit as Mike and Audrey have worked out their differences while preparing to have a new baby. Sadie and Ray Jr are living together.
This season focuses on Mike's new partner Ivan who's has a missing wife and shady family members while Mike tries to figure it all out plus deal with new family turmoil.

My Take:
The opening scene of the first episode is as grizzly as I've seen on TV in awhile. Mike is his usual hotheaded self who is quick to jump head first into cases while leaving his family on the back burner. Sadie plays a bigger part in this season as she becomes part of undercover investigation with meth dealers.
A superbly acted and bleak show changed the coarse a bit this year. A while the story was a much needed change, the characters haven't grown any. They are making the show start to feel monotonous.

My Take: So Good (but falling slightly)
