The series is mediocre at best. It takes Joe Hill's and Gabriel Rodriguez's extraordinary, adult, horror story and waters it down into a mediocre ya magical soap opera.

It takes Joe Hill's and Gabriel Rodriguez's extraordinary, adult, horror story and waters it down into a mediocre ya magical soap opera. I am thankful for the series for turning me on to the Locke and Key graphic novels. But other than that I won't be unlocking the door on season 2. Expand

I didn´t read the comics. Tries to be a kind of new "Strange Things", but fails.
It follows the "children/adolescents moving to a new town where they discover monsters/magic" trope. Some good ideas, probably from the comics, but suspense

It follows the "children/adolescents moving to a new town where they discover monsters/magic" trope. Some good ideas, probably from the comics, but suspense scenes are not so good and the story resolution is actually bad. Clearly, the script needed more work.

This show went from not terrible in season one to hot garbage in season two. I have nothing good to say about it.

Entertaining but quite unbalanced. The show works better when the magic is in the narrative because the high school drama was pretty boring.

This show should be called dumb peoplem make stupid mistakes.

I love the setting and keys but it's amazing how dumb these people can be.
I understand making the protagonists flawed... But it's not fun to watch them trip themself and eachother up with every single move and then just stumble into the right situations that fix everything.
It makes the characters unrelatable and increadably annoying.

If you like Rivendale you might like it.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This show was interesting at first but halfway through the episodes, it became more and more annoying as the evil protagonist became unstoppable. Major eyeroll if the "heroes" win not through effort or intelligence but because they are plucky. Expand

However I was disappointed to see a series that seemed to be based for people around (12+). This took away the immense and spine-chilling feel that joe hill’s comics can display. Despite all this I did not walk away fro the series completely deflated after seeing the series was adapted for a younger audience I was expecting a corny showing that I would walk away from after a couple episodes. This was not what happened I was pretty impressed with the performance of some of the cast and after a couple episodes I felt slightly gripped to the series. If I hadn’t read any of the comics then I would have left very impressed. With that said I do feel the series is trying to tick off too many genres , it tries to tackle a bit of horror, thriller and a teen romance. This isn’t all blended terribly but is a little much. I don’t really know how to feel after watching it, on one hand I am not happy about how toned down it was as that is what I loved about the comics but on the other hand what I got wasn’t bad for what it is...
