I cannot recommend this drama-horror series highly enough. It is incredible. It plays as a blend of Jaws, John Carpenter's The Thing, and Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. It is first and foremost a realistic depiction of the dynamic shared by the desperate crews of two ice-bound British ships in the 1800s, but it also has a foreboding and brutal supernatural component. The sense of isolation and mounting tension is palpable. The acting (by, among others, Jared Harris and CiarĂ¡n Hinds) is first-rate...the cinematography is gorgeous... I love it. |

Yeah I am also loving this so far. This is my kind of survival horror and it makes it even better that it's a period piece. The ensemble cast is fantastic aswell. |

Ok wow never heard of this. On the must see list now. And an added bonus to see Cirian Hinds and Tobias Menzies re-team once again after Rome where they played Caesar and Brutus (I wont count GOT). |

What a series. One of the best I have ever seen. Surreal, devastating, and beautiful finale. |

I really enjoyed this series. Very curious about a Season 2, especially since this felt so much more like a mini series than a prolonged show. |

I believe it is intended as an anthology series (horror-leaning historical drama). So if there is a second season, it would not continue this story in any way. |

I'd actually love that idea if that's the case. I'd like to see them do a version of something like The Roanoke Colony which seems perfectly suited for this type of show. |
