“From” RottenTomatoes is 93% fresh, “Lost” director’s new drama

“From” currently has a score of 7.8 on IMDB, a freshness rating of 93% on Rotten Tomatoes, and a popcorn index of 88%. Taken together, the show’s reputation is pretty good.

The story begins with a family of four traveling. A couple with a pair of children is driving an RV to travel. It seems that they are happy, but in fact, the couple has already decided to divorce after the trip.

They thought they could hide it from their children, but in fact the eldest daughter already knew the result, and the younger son was really carefree after the middle of the four.

The four of them embarked on a journey in such an atmosphere that seemed to be happy but actually gloomy. Friends who are familiar with American drama routines know that this seemingly sad beginning will only usher in a more tragic follow-up.

Sure enough, a big tree was lying down on the road, completely cutting off the path, and crows flying around the big tree, which made the atmosphere of the scene weird.

Since there is no way to go, naturally we can only go around. Walking around, the family of four came to a desolate and dilapidated town, which is the “Extreme Town” in the play title “From”.

The town was not only desolate and dilapidated, but also revealed a disturbing feeling. More importantly, the town was not on the map of their journey, and it looked like they had gone the wrong way.

When the family of four came to the town, the residents of the town were holding a funeral, and the husband got out of the car to ask for directions. As a result, the indifferent eyes of the town residents made people shudder.

Fortunately, the town’s sheriff responded to her husband and gave him directions.

After my husband thanked him, he immediately drove away as if he were running away, only to find that they had turned back after driving for a while!

The unbelieving husband thought he might have missed the intersection and drove on, you guessed it, they drove back again.

What’s more interesting is that there are no aboriginal people in the town, and the current residents are all here.

Of course, if you just can’t walk, then the show would be better called “Extreme Town”. The real horror is the “nightmare” of this town.

When night comes, a group of humanoids dressed in clothes from all eras will appear in the town, they will attack anyone who appears in front of them, and they are not afraid of the attack of human weapons.

In the face of high-blooded opponents, the residents of the town are completely powerless.

Fortunately, the screenwriter left a way out for the town residents: there is a kind of “talisman” in the town. As long as this is hung on the door of the house, the monsters cannot enter the house without permission. They can only enter the house with the permission of the owner. .

Although such “well-mannered” monsters are rare, there are always people who open the door to the monsters for various reasons, so even with the “talisman”, the town residents are not easy to live.

The main storyline of the whole play basically revolves around “nightmare” and “extreme town”, that is: trying to escape the attack of monsters while trying to escape the town.

With the development of the plot, a third-party force that can deceive people seems to have appeared in the town, making the already panic-stricken town even more chaotic.

Here’s a rundown of what’s worth recommending about this show.

As an American drama that focuses on suspense, this drama can be said to be very good in creating suspense.

The most typical example is when a friend questioned the power supply in this isolated town when the series started.

At the beginning, the guess was that there was a fuel generator in the town, and the residents only needed to collect the fuel for the cars of the new entrants to be able to supply electricity.

As a result, halfway through the plot, the protagonist’s family found that the wires at home had no metal cores, but only a layer of plastic skin… The wires only had a layer of plastic skin, so how did the lights connected by the wires turn on?

This obviously does not conform to the common sense of physics in the normal world.

The series does not throw all the suspense on the audience’s face as soon as it comes up, but allows the audience to follow the protagonist to explore the town from the perspective of a “newcomer”.

Others don’t know, anyway, this rhythm gives people a sense of comfort in playing games.

So, if you are a fan of suspense dramas, this “From” is a must-see.
