 Hello everybody, E here. Welcome back to another episode of 31 Days of Halloween I know it's very close to Halloween probably two days or a day before. I'm not sure when I'm gonna post this So I'm sorry to hit you with a negative review But I actually thought I was gonna love this and I didn't love it, but we're gonna talk about why But first a word from our sponsor a photographer stalks his latest obsession and gets more than he bargains for werewolves berserkers kissune From the most ancient times tales have been told of people who transform into beasts Sometimes they are friendly Sometimes they're tricksters and sometimes they're terrifying Within the pages of where tales a shapeshifter anthology you will meet them all Featuring many talented contemporary writers of dark fiction and fantasy including several Bram Stoker award nominees and winners Also including a non-fiction piece written by Cindy O'Quinn Many thanks to Bridget's Gate for sponsoring this episode now on with the review. Okay, so you already looked at the the title of this video I'm sure that I'm going to be seeing comments that I have no class. I have no taste I have no heart, but I pretty much hated the entirety of the haunting a blind manner And come to find out Mike Flanagan didn't direct a whole lot of this I think it was only the first episode. I I'm not sure how much of it he wrote. I didn't even check Probably because I don't want to be disappointed to find out he wrote he wrote the whole thing There are three people in this show that I enjoyed that was Jamie Hannah and Owen. I literally hated everyone else. Yes, even the kids. Yes, even when they were themselves Floor and Miles aggravated the absolute piss out of me. I couldn't stand it perfectly splendid I couldn't stand it. It aggravated me. Miles was just trash Even even though he had his reasons even though they both had their reasons. I can't help it, man I did I I'm gonna tell you the truth. I hated both children not that not the actors, but they're their performances and It's not to say that they were bad performances and it's not what I'm saying I'm saying the characters that they portrayed aggravated me To the nth degree didn't give a shit about Danny. I probably probably would have Made my enjoyment which is funny because Nell was my favorite part of Hill House is the same actress So again, it's not the actors and actresses that I had a problem with it's the characters that they played I found Danny a very cliched Boring character. I found Let's see here Peter Quint and Miss Jessal both to be very cliched boring characters I found the kids to be cliched boring characters. I had nothing. I didn't like anything about him now That being said, I am still at three stars. Here's why I Loved the final episode and I loved everything with Hannah and Owen I would have preferred an entire season of just Hannah and oh, I'm not lying here I would I would love to watch these two characters on screen together Fall in love and have happy and scary times and all that stuff like a Flanagan led series with just these two characters I know that can't happen the way that the story ends, but I would love to see it I'm also a big fan of I already like Rahul. I can't remember his last name. He was in midnight mass He was fantastic in there pays a completely different character than he played in this one I didn't even know he was British Until my oldest told me that he had he has a Twitter and I went and checked out his Twitter huge fan of that Twitter But the actress who played Hannah Gross. Oh, she's fascinating man. I had she is She not only is she lovely to look at she's lovely to listen to I loved everything about her so much So I had to keep on lance and over at my wife to see if she could tell yes I had a huge crush on Hannah huge crush on Hannah That actress is absolutely gorgeous That's my opinion. I'm not gonna mess around of course not she doesn't she has no interest in me She doesn't even know who I am, but that's what I'm saying. She's an absolutely gorgeous woman I loved her her acting. I love the character. I loved all that and I would have loved to have seen more Oh, and then Hannah I was here for that Jamie's character was very conflicted. I loved I loved the story about the flowers all that stuff and I believed that Jamie I Guess it's kind of a spoiler. It's whatever Jamie loved Danny I believe in all that the very last episode. I kind of called that that was a very very predictable twist Especially since those two characters sounded the same but it But with Danny I don't I didn't care at all. I don't know what it is It gave me absolutely nothing to latch on to other than she had someone die and she feel bad That's that's and then when that's all that I get from a character is their tragedy Is their trauma because not all not every character is only not every person is only their trauma I guess so there's gonna be plenty of people who argue that but I disagree. We are happy moments We are sad moments. We are a combination of everything and when a character is just one note It's kind of like and I don't want to go off on a rant here But kind of like the main character Marjorie Mallory, whoever it was in bird box. She was pregnant woman That's all she was we got no other character development whatsoever the entire book now That might have changed for for Mallory the Majority Major's math. Why did I literally was that literally about to say Major's mask? Wow Anyways Marjorie Mallory Marjoram, whatever her name was. I don't know In the sequel to that one. We might have got more. I don't know But I didn't read it because I hated the first book with a fiery passion But here is it was some of the same thing. I really liked Owen. He was a very dynamic character He was more than his grief. He was more than just a caretaker He had the mother character that you know He had to go home to every night and then you had Hannah and Hannah had a very deep You know story with her her own tragedies her own happiness is all all that stuff and that's why I love those characters and with Jamie Jamie was another one of those really deep characters that was not only Tragedy she used the horrible things in her life to become a gardener and made beautiful things and there is character development There's no character development anyone else Everyone else in this show is just trauma trauma trauma trauma trauma trauma. That's it And when you that's all that you have Except for the blessings that were Hannah and Owen if that's all that you would have had this this would have been utter Shit it would have been Because you need you need a significant balance of those things and you had that in Hill House You had the comedy and you had that in Midnight Mask you had these balance these balances This one does not have any balance what so have not for me. Anyways, um probably because I hated, you know But five sevens of the characters Literally hate it like I did every time they came on screen. I was like no get back to Hannah No one or or Jamie without Danny Unfortunately, we don't get much Jamie without Danny, but it's whatever Anyway, so that's how I feel about the hunting of blind manner I'm giving it three stars and only three stars because I was back at two after that Oh episode eight was just utter garbage Um a huge hour long info dump a crap that I didn't I couldn't care less about and some people say it's their favorite episode I don't see it's it's whatever my oldest said that too Dan said that they thought that was their favorite episode It's whatever we we can agree to disagree there. I don't understand it But uh, have you watched the hunting of blind manner? Please let me know down in the doobly-doo whether or not you loved it Whether or not you hated it whether or not you felt meh about it, especially if you liked it. I guess Uh, it's it's going to come down to subjective personal things here, but because it's very personal I just couldn't stand any of the couldn't stand most of the characters Um, but if you want to try and convince me you can you can let me know why you love those characters that I hated That'd be fun. Let me let me know that down there in the doobly-doo. Why did you love the characters that I hated? Yeah, that's what we're going to talk about. But until next time I have been e you have been you This has been another episode of 31 days of halloween. I'll talk to you guys later. Bye. Bye
