An MTV summer show, loosely based on an eighties movie (of which the only thing I think we can mention is that it featured Michael J. Fox), starring someone who's been likened to Taylor Lautner all over the press. Even the promo posters seemed to be Twilight clones.
I went into the show with a lot of skepticism. In fact, even the pilot didn't convince me. After having given a few more episodes a go, however, the show has proved itself to be a very entertaining, well- balanced mixture of horror, teen drama and comedy. The plots seem to grow more intricate each episode (even though good parts of it are still relatively cliché - thank god the combination of elements can make you forget that somewhat).
This is not the best show ever, but for anyone who likes genre shows and has an affinity for teen drama, this show is worth a go. Just don't expect it to be a new Buffy right away. Who knows, however, what the future may bring for this show. Stay tuned.
