Fringes of Horror: The Fades, Season 1 (2010)

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.

The Fades, Season 1 (2010)

Starring: Iain De Caestecker, Johnny Harris, Daniel Kaluuya, Sophia Wu

Premise:
Spirits of the dead called Fades start eating human flesh to become immortal, led by Polus. A group of special people called Angelics try to stop them from taking over the Earth and the savior could be a teenage boy named Paul.

My Take:
An interesting and unique storyline which moves along rapidly through the six episodes. Very good writing as there's a touch of zombie, angels, ghosts, end of the world, and the line between good and evil are often blurred. The excellent cast helps pull of the feat.
A very solid program and I would enjoy seeing it get a second season.

Rating: So Good
