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.

Torchwood: Miracle Day, Season 4 (2011)

Starring: John Barrowman, Eve Myles, Bill Pullman, Mekhi Phifer, Lauren Ambrose

Premise:
A mysterious event keeps people from dying. The press calls it "Miracle Day". But as the population explodes to record numbers, resources are tapped and so is the way of handling life. At the source is a group called "The Three Families". Enter the Torchwood team to find a solution, this time aided by two CIA Agents.

My Take:
A cool story, that greatly changes through the season, is muddled by many things including huge plot holes and over acting by a few characters. But that's the series in a nutshell. Don't over analyze it and just enjoy the ride.
Bill Pullman once again proves why he is such an under rated actor.

Favorite Episodes: Immortal Sins (episode 7)
In this episode we see some of Captain Jack's past and the beginning of The Three Families.

Rating: In the middle
