I have seen the first episode, and there is too much atmospheric sound and music, too many weird camera angles and short shots. This is a "grunge" TV horror, and you'd be better off with the 1985 adaptation with Diana Rigg et al. I felt uncomfortable watching it because the wretched cameraman seemed to have ants in his pants, and wouldn't stay still! You can't do a jump-cut from a face to a closer-up close-up of the same face without doing a cut to a different view. Doesn't anybody come out of film school with a basic understanding of how to make TV/film any more??? It might seem to be faithful to the book so far (whether that remains true has yet to be seen), but I doubt that I can bear to sit in front of all 15 episodes!
