Title: Apparitions Post by: tar on January 12, 2009, 04:32:25 AM Anyone like Ultraviolet? The TV series, not the film :) Apparitions (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apparitions_(TV_series)) is by Joe Ahearne, same guy behind that.
In a way it's a successor to Ultraviolet, it has similar themes. So if the idea of a more mature Ultraviolet appeals, with demons instead of vampires, then check it out. I ended up watching the entire thing twice in one weekend, it's that good :) Title: Re: Apparitions Post by: DraconianOne on January 12, 2009, 07:26:59 AM EDIT: I was thinking of Demons with Philip Glenister. This is that tosh with Martin Shaw right? Wasn't overly impressed but also wasn't paying much attention at the time. Title: Re: Apparitions Post by: tar on January 13, 2009, 05:23:28 AM Yep, it's the one with Martin Shaw.
It's worth paying attention to the first episode :) If it hasn't grabbed you by the end then you're probably not going to like it. It's slower paced and more introspective than Ultraviolet was but builds up to a great deal of intensity by the final episode. It's a nice mix of roman catholic church politics, philosophical questions, exorcisms and people getting mutilated by demons. Fun for all the family! |
