Outcast: A wrath unseen lurks within the shadows, close to home

August 16, 2016 5:46 PM - Season 1 (Full Season)

(And other episode title mashups.) Season one check-in.

Did anyone else watch this? I enjoyed it, even though I'm not into horror. What I like about this show is its understated style and the breathing room that it gives its characters; they seem like real people I might meet. Never thought I'd be calling demonic possession understated, but I mean it takes a bit of guts to make your main character as "quiet", if you will, as Kyle often seems. (Am I projecting? Let me project! Introvert exorcists unite!)

I really enjoy this show. I like that it's not afraid to be slow and atmospheric and quiet (as you say). I even like that it took a few episodes to get going, and that it rewards you for that. Plus the casting is excellent and the acting is uniformly high quality.

I really enjoyed it also and was glad to hear it has been renewed for a second season. Agree the cast is awesome. The intro is great, too.
