[The show] succeeds through clever writing, top-flight cinematography and, crucially, smart casting. The psychological drama of The Strain is largely carried by Corey Stoll and Kevin Durand, savvy, naturalistic actors who give emotional weight to the melodrama.

For the first time since the series’ strong start in 2014, The Strain delivers propulsive drama and world building. In the final season, the talented cast, the gorgeous effects, and the singular cinematographic aesthetic are matched bold narrative moves and satisfying character beats.

The three episodes provided for review seem to signal volcanic larger story arc that is uncomfortably bleak and a bit dour at the outset but slowly builds toward a final showdown with The Master, which is sure to be nothing short of cataclysmic.
