Chapelwaite (2021–2023)
7/10
Not flawless, but would recommend it

If you're a fan of Stephen King, this certainly has the right vibe. Adrien Brody is very compelling as the main protaganist and he has the right material to work with. The performance of some of the supporting cast was a bit hit and miss, but overall pretty good. I liked the story for the most part. There is some unnessecary fluff here and there that could've been trimmed from the script, maybe even one or two minor characters, but the show doesn't lose track of the main plot and keeps it's momentum. If you're a fan of a bleak, desaturated visual style, you're in for a treat: everything looks delightfully gloomy. In a couple of scenes, the moon looked cartoonishly large though. The finale wasn't that great, but not bad either. The ending didn't make all that much sense, and overall, I feel that this could've been great, but instead it's just pretty good.
