A deep, dark pool of fun and death
This was something different a short series, with what I assume a not so big budget (or all the budget went to the castI, low quality production but indeed very artistic and an interesting story that had me thinking, more than once... To be honest it was first when I saw the behind the scenes that I decided to give this a 9 instead of an 8.
What I like, the complexity of the story they managed to fit in, in such a short span of time. I also liked the OST the contrast between the really pretty cinematography and good visuals set up against the cheep low budget apartment look. I enjoyed most of the acting, Gameplay and Jeff are indeed very charming and fun to watch. There was quite a bit of charm and heart fluttering moments in this otherwise very dark, dark setting. Being a fan of the dark I guess this was up my dark, dark ally...
The humour is mostly cheep but in a good way... as they do joke about sausages while frying sausages...
I do think they could have built even more on this story, but it worked as it was as well.
All in all definitely a show I recommend if you want to feel both entertained and find yourself analysing details and meaning after finishing a show.
