Apart of the non realistic sound of battle on the streets and being a unrealistic ambient dynamic, the main history is not bad. But the child change of the zack character was an epic error.

But the child change of the zack character was an epic error. I really want to like this series, and it haves a lot of good things. But the ambience details, unrealistic politics, kicks me out of the history frequently.

Still a good series.

One of the most deliciously depressing series I have ever seen, as depressing as the Walking Dead or any global apocalypse scenario, where humanity falls into darkness simply because of arrogance, infighting and close-mindedness. The viewerOne of the most deliciously depressing series I have ever seen, as depressing as the Walking Dead or any global apocalypse scenario, where humanity falls into darkness simply because of arrogance, infighting and close-mindedness. The viewer might ask why this plague did not consume humanity before. As the series rolls out there are genuine reasons for that, based on our scientific progress, coupled with social isolation and mistrust. All the emo vampire shows with pale tall models are pathetic and bizarre compared to this realistic horror saga. To portray the strigoi vampire species as a pathogenic host-based organism is a genius move. The mechanisms and modalities of this species make sense as they are rooted firmly in biology. The special effects are equally compelling and gory, a real blood fest sure to please any horror fan.
The characters of this show are relatable and memorable. Each person does their very best to turn the tide in favour or against humanity, based on their ethos. Certainly Abraham Setrakian and Thomas Eichorst tower over the rest, ancient immortal foes against each other. The other great strife between the Master and the Born is an epic duel of fates. The supporting cast makes a great team across the board, demonstrating the central theme of the show, that evil uses love to win. The deep roots of the series in history add tremendous depth to the events, showing the repeating cycle of good versus evil. This show embodies “The only thing necessary for evil to triumph in the world is that the good do nothing”. Though the series is a short 4 seasons, it completes a beautiful arc and ends with a clean slice. A really well-made show that puts you through the wringer with tension and shock, but does not once lose its footing and consistency.

Season 1: Wonderful from the first to the last. The perfect blend of detective meets gothic meets outbreak meets adventure meets body horror. It seriously has it all! My only complaint is that the characters are a little thin, but that'sSeason 1: Wonderful from the first to the last. The perfect blend of detective meets gothic meets outbreak meets adventure meets body horror. It seriously has it all! My only complaint is that the characters are a little thin, but that's 100% forgivable given the fast pace and the feeling that they're keeping it fresh with plot twists and reveals! Expand

The most drawback of this beautiful macabre show is the boy who acted Zack since season 2, he is disgusting, the first boy in season one was amazing, lovely and brave but they replaced him for a mediocre one

To jest kolejny idealny przykład jak zepsuć serial robiąc za dużo jego serii. Na siłę ta czwarta seria. Ehhh
