I enjoyed this and binged it in 2 days, but lots of things really annoyed me.
Like the family finds out from a previous owner that there could be tunnels going into their house, which explains why random people keep turning up in it. But nevermind, they just forget about that until a few episodes later when a tunnel is actually found. They then never show the tunnel being covered over. Its so frustrating to watch! You wouldnt just ignore a tunnel going into your house when some weirdo is sending you threatening notes and murdering your pet.
Theres also loads of storylines that dont go anywhere. Like the couple across the road in matching tracksuits who trespass on their lawn and look menacing, turn into this harmless couple who never trespass at all and give up on the matching clothes.
Also the daughter posts a video online about her dad being rascist. Something that was relevant in the episode for all of 2 minutes.
A blood cult is mentioned, but doesnt come up again.
Music is said to be played in the house on its own... never mentioned again.
And all the characters look fishy and unrealistic. Maybe thats the point, but even the theoretically good ones behave oddly, like Theodora. She basically told the family nothing, just goes on and on about new suspects only to then say it can't be them.
And the Dad is an absolute nutter, he becomes stupidly obsessed with the watcher.
I did enjoy watching it but it was a bit nonsensical and a lot of the events were made up compared to the real life story.
