Lore

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

shalow-274-830369 Unbelievable translations of history, ruined by a cringeworthy voice of the narrator.

swilliky Amazon's horror documentary exclusive adapts the popular podcast into six terrifying stories that explore the monsters of our history. From vampires to ghosts to werewolves, Aaron Mahnke lays out the legends of our past in an entertaining manner that puts all the pieces together. The episodes switch between a single narrative of a past event and explanations of how the legend was formed and similar cases in more recent history that were explained away. The stories are pretty spooky and the scenes give a decent amount of suspense made that much more horrifying because of their somewhat factual nature. At only six episodes, Lore feels a little short for a first season but if any passionate viewers want more, there are a ton of podcast episodes to which they can listen.The first episode tackles the fear of being buried alive and mysterious illness that render their victims nearly dead. The story revolves around George Brown (Campbell Scott) and his conviction that people should be dug up to prove they are dead. The story leads to the creation of vampires from the author Bram Stoker. The second episode explores the medical procedure of lobotomy. The story explores the life of Dr. Walter Freeman (Colm Feore) who specialized in the procedure but had a strange life of his own.Check out more of this review and others at swilliky.com

sasquach1 honestly 9 out of 10 times I would be able to look past a bad narrator.This is the time I can't, got through about 20 minutes and had to turn off.The narration in now way fits the theme on the screen. It almost sounds like i'm listening to artificial speech from a computer.Please re-release with new narrator. Go find one of the narrators from audible or something, someone who will give some depth to the story.I understand this is from a podcast and the original creator is narrating.An example to bad awesome authors and bad narration. Listen to Steven King, he's a terrible narrator of his books.

aduvall-200-975821 Well done! Huge fan of the podcast. Very impressed with the actors and production of this Amazon show. Great job Aaron! The animations are well done and the stories are told in such a way that you feel part of them. Looking forward to season 2 as I finished it off in 2 nights. Sometimes I miss the days of waiting a week for the next episode.
