Katla: From Under the Glacier (2021)
Season 1, Episode 1
8/10
Wonderful Pacing
16 July 2021
Feeling like a Scandinavian version of another mystery series, Dark.

It's been a long time since I've seen a solid series that manages to play the story out at its own pace. None of the frenetic US hyperpacing and insta-reveal.

Drawing us into the characters and hinting at something unknown and potentially malevolent.

The TikTok / Youtube Shorts and 15 minute, MTV length episodes have created a generation of young "adults" who are apparently unable to stand more than 5 minutes without someone shooting something or blowing something up or even just sit and watch a tale unfold before their eyes and savour the mystery.
