[Film] The Terror BBC2 at 2100 tonight

[Icy Gull]

10 parter with great reviews

Anyone on her seen it?

Thoughts?

Sounds like a bit of a horror theme, is it?

 

[Albion Dan]

Was this the show that was on AMC originally about the ships that try to sail through the Arctic loosely based on a true story?

If it is then its bloody excellent!!!!!! A bit of mild horror in it but more suspense really imo.

Wrong thread.

Thinking that an undercover documentary was being aired, about the Smellhurst Ultras.

Thanks. I don’t do horror movies but suspense is good. If it’s anything like as terrifying as the Shining I’m not interested

There are dark/scary undercurrents but I'd not describe it as full horror at any point. I thought it was really good gripping stuff.

I read the book a couple years ago which was great. The book is usually always better but the series was very enjoyable

 

[nordicgod]

Watched 3 episodes now and hooked

The book was a good read.
Looking forward to watching.

Yes, watched this when it first came out in 2018. It’s really very good - highly recommend.

Sadly the second ‘season’, set in a Japanese internment camp in America during WW2, was a huge disappointment.

Me and the Mrs have watched the first two episodes based on the recommendation on here. She's really enjoying it, I'm on the fence for now.
It seems like the 3rd one is where shit will go down and it will start getting a bit more interesting.

Two episodes in and have to say it’s not really grabbed me.

I love Ridley Scott but had forgotten how much the ******* uses darkness to set up suspense but when you’ve gone to the trouble of recreating 19th century ships in immaculate detail I actually want to see the bloody things!

I watched the first episode turned off half way through not impressed will not be watching any more

being pedantic, how could you have watched the first episode if you turned off half way through ?

 

[keaton]

I think I made it episode 5/6 and gave up. It was well made me always seemed on the verge of being better without really getting anywhere.

True to clarify I started watching the first episode switching off half way through

Given that the whole premise is that they're stuck in the ice for years, hats off for reviewing it as "not really getting anywhere".
