Warning **Spoiler** | Finale was a let down
5 September 2016
Warning: Spoilers
I stumbled across this TV show while looking for something to watch on Amazon, and found the premise intriguing. I would have given a much higher score, but was really let down in the finale.

I almost feel duped, like do they expect me to watch the second series to find out how those people in the basement cellar can live in that filth for all those years? I mean what is that all about? That just gave me more questions.

Finales are supposed to answer all the questions along the way, like for example, who are the "real" bad guys? Why are the animals acting weird, what is happening to the moss? And why is that little girl making those phone calls to Gillian's mother? What is her deal? The real murderer of Chloe seemed liked an afterthought, when originally it was presented as the center of the show. What happened to Chloe was supposed to be some conspiracy tied to what happened to Gillian.

I did enjoy the acting and the pace of the show. The beauty of Tasmania is breath taking; however there were a few too many shots of the same images. Finally, I would say the premise of the show was brilliant, but the execution of bringing the story to life was not. There is a lot about this show that I like, and a lot that I didn't, but if you enjoy mysteries, this is better than most.
