    Default Horror found a new format!

    Rather than making a movie where you don't get time to get to know characters before they get butchered, or making an ongoing series with no written ending, making horror mini series has lately become a bit of a trend. Personally, I think it's very refreshing to follow a show that has an ending planned and filmed before the first episode even airs, so I hope they keep it up!

    For those who have no idea what I'm talking about:
    • Harper's Island - Aired last spring/summer, a horror series in 13 intense episodes.
    • Happy Town - Premiered last week and will have 7 more episodes.
    • Persons Unknown - Premieres in June, 13 episodes, and looks very promising!


    Anyone going to follow Happy Town or Persons Unknown?

    What format do you think is good for shows?

    I like the looks of Happy Town o:

    I'll probably end up missing it like I do every other show I try to watch xD

    I heard good things about Harper's Island when it was on, but I never personally watched it. I might look into Happy Town because the cast is pretty amazing. Persons Unknown, to me, seems pretty bland. Kinda like a cross between Saw and Survivor; I might look into it but who knows.

    I have enough shows to watch I don't need more x_x

    I did like Harper's Island. Unfortunately, it didn't enjoy great ratings in Australia so it started airing later and later every week. It was good that the network that it was on committed to showing the whole season despite the low ratings though.
