This is a drama based on Dan Simmons's 2007 best-selling novel set in 1847 when the crew of a Royal Naval expedition to find the Arctic's treacherous Northwest Passage discovers instead a monstrous predator.
season one...
this show had everything going for it BUT THE STORY.
almost as soon as it went supernatural it lost all sense and direction for me.
and i put that on the supernatural load of crap they had in the show.
you cannot just pull any kind of supernatural "thing" and throw it into a story and
expect it to work. they has to be some back story, there has to be some reason for it to be there.
there has to be a "natural order" to the supernatural thing, item, object, whatever.
you cannot just throw a super powerfull supernatural object into a story
" because " you need it and no other reason.
not unless you are making a B- grade horror that no one is really there
to watch in the first place, that horror just an excuse to be in a dark room with
a soon to be naked partner.
this show just turned worthless at a point when it should have become very good.
it had everything else going for it, location, mystery, good actors, good set, good dialog...
"The Terror" just had some stupid supernatural crap.
and i usually like the supernatural stuff of all kinds and types.
this show was one of the biggest disappointments in years..
i have not seen the other seasons after how bad this one was. but i should check them..
