    It’s a mess, but it isn’t without audacity. That’s a calling card, if not necessarily a success.

    So inaptly straight-faced that it casts Bruce Campbell as the chief of police and then denies him the opportunity to flex his action-comedy muscles, it’s a misguided nostalgia trip that never comes close to earning a devil-horn salute.

    Ultimately, “Hysteria!” isn’t frightening enough to be a horror series, nor wacky enough to be funny. It loses its freshness and voice by ensuring the presence of every 1980s horror trope.
