Midnight Mass

[TheWalrus]

This is possibly the best (Particular genre of horror) show I've seen. Very well done. Go in cold without watching stuff about it if you can, some of it is going to be fairly obvious, but the reveals are very nice. Superb acting, absolutely has one of the most hated characters ever.

10/10 will watch again.

We are two episodes in and I have to agree - this is really well done so far. That's all I'm saying :)

This is great. Go in cold like everyone is saying. I want to make recommendations, snarky comments, etc, but I really don't want to give away the game.

The only thing I'll say is that I thought it was going to be a ghost story. It is not. Mostly.

It was fine. Extremely telegraphed. Linklater crushed it.

I was legitimately confused by the apparent time jump between Ash Wednesday and an Easter potluck.

Quite possibly the best show i had heard absolutely nothing about that I have seen in the last 20 years.  It was simply fantastic from start to finish.  Can't say enough about this, watch this series.

My wife grew up catholic and left the church. We had legitimately hours long conversations during watching these episodes about how well done it was. If you like this, look at these other works by the creator:

Movie: Oculus - one of the best 'horror' movies in the last two decades.
Netflix: Haunting of Hill House
Netflix: Haunting of Bly Manor

Both of the two netflix series are slow burns, with Hill House being a bit longer than it needed to be. They are both very, very loose adaptations of the Shirley Jackson and Henry James works and both are haunting and great work.

Wow the haunting of hill house and bly manor were also fantastic.  I will have to check out  oculus.

I've watched this over the last few days. Wow. Thanks for not spoiling it here.

I ended up setting aside all my responsibilities (apart from the kid) to finish watching it. Such outstanding performances. Give it all the awards.

anyone who liked this that hasn't seen Hereditary should rectify that

Just got finished with this, liked it quite a bit.

One thing that stood out to me is that when two people in any given situation sat down for a conversation, the viewer actually got to see the whole goddamned conversation.  Normally you get a couple sentences that leave you hanging for later reveals and then they switch over to another scene.  Here they just played it out all the way and let the viewer learn everything all the time, at the same time as the characters.  Watching it happen so often made me realize how rarely it is done this way, and I liked it a great deal.
