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 Leftovers, Season 1 (2014)

Starring: Justin Theroux, Liv Tyler, Amy Brenneman, Carrie Coon, Amanda Warren, Michael Gaston, Emily Meade, Chris Zylka, Margaret Qualley, Scott Glenn, Christopher Ecceston

Premise:
After 2% of the world's population mysteriously disappears, a small town is forced to pic up the pieces and move on. Though many find it hard to do and seem lost.

My Take:
The series took awhile to sink its teeth into me, but about half way through I found it to be rather interesting. Though it does ask far more questions then is being answered at this point. It is still a show that is a little different and has some potential for future seasons. Hopefully we get answers behind the multiple cults, strange animal behavior, those who make contact, and the man who can take away people's pain.

Rating: In the middle
