You are so behind the times! its so so good.
I know! I gave it a try last year but only managed 10 mins, had it on in the background last night and found myself chuckling and now I’m hooked! It’s brilliant.

Glitch. Really really good. Proper top quality drama.
Australian drama which starts out with a police officer discovering some people who've crawled out of their graves in a country town cemetery. That's the same basic synopsis that Netflix gives and it goes nowhere close to selling the show.
Well filmed, rounded characters, tightly plotted and very subtly builds as it goes. Lots of details in the story to reward the observant, to the point it's worth watching twice to spot things you didn't appreciate the first time. Nothing is obvious and the story builds carefully with many threads that take time to unwind.
Two series so far, 6 hour long episodes in each. Lots of content so feels like more than that but it's never rushed. Third series filming now.
Cannot recommend it enough, a real hidden gem.

Just about half way through Hold The Dark. Set in Alaska, a child appears to have been taken by wolves and a wolf expert is bought in to track to down, but all is not as it seems...
Bit bleak, in a 'who would want to live there?' sort of way, but enjoying it so far.
Just watched it. The plot is almost incomprehensible, the camera work is excellent, the mood is as dark as the title. A sort of Scandi noir thriller in Alaska. I enjoyed it, although you might not if you want everything in a film to make sense. There are lots of clues about what is really going on. Bit bleak, in a 'who would want to live there?' sort of way, but enjoying it so far.
More guns than expected, and impressively done.
