Afterlife Episode One
Just watched the first episode of ITV's new supernatural series, Afterlife starring the superb Leslie Sharp and Andrew Lincoln. Spooky stuff and set in Bristol, how could I miss it.
Luckily I wasn't disappointed. By the looks of it the series is going to avoid shock-tactics and try and be genuinely disturbing. I certainly wasn't expecting the twist ending of Veronica's story although the final scene was signposted nice and early but still managed to turn my skin to gooseflesh.
A good start and put me in a undead mood for tomorrow nights trip to the cinema to see Land of the Dead...

Thought it was a bit...obvious..myself. But, it was the opener and, as such, needed to get the characters 'out there'...
I'll watch the next couple to see how it goes...

I know what you mean, but remember this is for a mainstream audience who may or may not be into this kind of thing. They may not of seen anything like this before and with that in mind I thought it was far more inventive than it could have been...
