Fringes of Horror: True Blood, Season 7 (2014)

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.

True Blood, Season 7 (2014)

Starring: Anna Paquin, Stephen Moyer, Alexander Skarsgard, Ryan Kwanten, Sam Trammel, Debrah Wol, Chris Bauer, Nelson Ellis, Carrie Preston, Lauren Bowels, Kristin Bauer van Straten,

Premise:
In season 7, vampires with the Hep Virus invade Bon Temps. They infect and kidnap people before Sookie bands a small group together to save the town.

My Take:
While I think the series has been failing for a couple of seasons now, this final season is an utter mess and worse it is mostly boring. Major characters die, characters came back in the fold, and many characters go against their type that has been beaten over our heads for season (that is not character development, that is desperation). Honestly it feels like the writers didn't even care about a true story, they just wanted to wrap it all up in a neat little Hallmark moment and drag the nothingness out as long as they could. And for a series known for over the top gore and sex, there is little of both in the final season. I really disliked the entire season.

Rating: Warning
