Gatiss in full Hammer shlock mode is a great rollicking romp. Anyone who grew up with the originals should/might/will love this.

It’s bloody good!
Like Van Helsing’s reference to having a friendly detective in England…
Biting humour.

Wasn’t sure which nun would get it first. It was neck and neck…

I’m so glad this wasn’t another abstract noirish affected ‘clever interpretation’. All meaningful ponderous glowering and slow moving, supposedly ‘tense’ scenes.
Hammers, stakes, crosses, vampiressess and buckets of blood.
Job done!

What’s inside number 9???
He’s getting them all in!
And I note ticks in ALL the diversity boxes.
Moving apace in the same vein… and an interesting twist at the end!

Last nights was just a teasing taste of what’s followed.

Dire.
In the first few minutes we’re questioning if the Count has reared Mr Harker, and soon after Mina writes that she’s partial to any number of fellows or some bird down the pub if her betrothed misbehaves.
Great sets/effects then ruined by a vampire who’d be at home in Eastenders.
Crazy ‘diversity tick box’ BBC stuff.
Having not seen episode 2 yet I strongly suspect there’ll be a Mina/VH lesbian love interest sub-plot.

I’ve only seen the first episode but thoroughly enjoyed it.

Yet another garbage echoing the same crap, produced by an infantile who didn’t even bothered to investigate the Romanian history.
