Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
markkbranson "The Fades" is a BBC production that is unbelievable in its effects, cinematography, and acting. Regrettably, I have only found seven episodes (on Amazon Prime) and I am heartbroken I can't find any more. Because of this open-ended nature, I titled this piece so you will know that if you can live with absence of closure, then this series is a must see.The plot is a mixture of teen angst and upgraded TV horror (think of "American Horror Story" but a little more bloody since it is designed for British audiences). Some have likened this series to "Buffy," but the acting, the effects, and the overall story line is far superior to "Buffy" (at least from my viewing of both).Admittedly, there are types (since this is TV drama): close male friend, obnoxious twin sister, and typical high school drama. However intertwined is horror and real emotions (see Paul's relationship) that this series employees that recommends this series.Keep in mind there are only seven episodes that I have found, so if you can live with that sort of ambiguity, engage in a binge weekend and watch these episodes. It is well worth your time!
portjos After reading some of the reviews here I decided to watch season 1. Found the first few episodes to be a little slow, but I'm so glad I stuck with it! This slow introduction is perhaps the reason it was canceled? It's such a travesty because this show is so good. The pace of each episode reminds me of Walking Dead and Game of Thrones, where the plot escalates and grows in complexity at the end of each episode. It's a satisfying and unique take on ghosts and zombies, with complex and realistic lead characters. If this show has been canceled for good before it's given a chance, I think it is a big mistake, as I can see it will become hugely popular.
Scuba Head Although I was not sure how the show would turn out when started watching Episode 1, I realized what a great show it is. I think casting is great and it is an excellent horror show. You never know what will happen next. I hope to see this show lasting several seasons.I highly recommend this show who is into horror and want to have a good time.Ms.Wu is doing a great job in acting as well. 8 out of 10.It can be put in the same category as Walking Dead (Season 2 just started by the way)I am looking forward to watching new episodes.Cheers
noumeron First episodes were a little plot-thick and a little hard to convince that there is a solid scenario behind the series. But thank god i decided to continue watching this! After episode 3 and especially 4 the series went into another level! Plot gaps were filled, effects are pretty decent, actors are really really good and if it continues like this we will be talking about the horror highlight of the year. So I'm giving it a 10 because it manages to avoid so many clichés of the genre, remain fresh and very very promising. I'm really excited about how the story unfolds and i hope this isn't a some kind of 6-episode season;p
