#WATCH VAN HELSING SEASON 2 SERIES#
This series, which originally aired on Syfy, really stayed off the radar for most, but if you’re a fan of vampires, tragic pasts, complex characters, and a lot of gore, then this is a series for you. And with the help of her allies, she just might. The world is overrun by vampires but she’s the key to leading a resistance. The show follows Vanessa Van Helsing (Kelly Overton), a descendant of Abraham Van Helsing, who awakens in a post-apocalyptic world after being in a coma. And Van Helsing checks both of those boxes. And complex characters with the capability of darkness are much better than flat-out heroes who can do no wrong, at least in my opinion.
Horror that’s led by a dynamic woman is usually fun to watch. And the twists are fun enough that it’s definitely worth a watch. And almost nobody is safe from getting slashed or killed.Īs far as slasher series go, it’s entertaining! Some of the acting is iffy, but there’s some top-notch gore. Naturally, Emma is linked to the horrific past of her town, Lakewood.
The first two seasons (season three is apparently a hot mess, so I’ve yet to watch it and can’t comment) focus on Emma Duvall (Will Fitzgerald), as well as her friends and family, who are trying to survive killing sprees committed by a masked killer named the Lakewood Slasher. But it’s not the heaping pile of garbage that some folks have made it out to be. Part of that reason is because the show was based on the Scream film series, which naturally led to a lot of comparisons, and perhaps the show fell short when held up to the movies. This series doesn’t receive enough praise. There’s bound to be something below for every horror fan. And if you want a fresh revenge horror series, you’ll find a rec at the end of the list. And rather than list off all the shows you already know about, I’m going to key you into some that you might not know.Įach of these live-action horror series range in terms of their subgenre-so, if you’re not big into slashers and love supernatural horror, you’ll be satisfied with something in this list. In terms of live-action horror series on Netflix, there’s quite enough to keep yourself occupied-both with shows that are successful (by traditional metrics) and lesser-known gems. When smaller shows are ignored, people miss out on hidden gems, and, in this case, fantastic horror live-action series. That said, it’s too bad when great shows are dismissed or canceled, simply because they aren’t mainstream (or haven’t yet caught on in the current, pop-culture zeitgeist).
I’m not one who turns my nose up at things just because they’re wildly successful. Often shows are popular for a reason! You’d be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn’t know Stranger Things exists-which, of course, is a sci-fi horror gem.
