What We Do In The Shadows

YouTube video

The movie was freaking hilarious so I'll follow this. The humor is the funny cringy kind like The Office, and this show is by the same directors (one of them directed Thor Ragnarok) so it should follow similar beats while expanding on it.

just watched the first show.. this is horrible...

may watch the secod episode to see if anything improves

I'll temper my expectations then. I may be letting the movie color my vision of what the show will be. LMK if the second improves it for you.

First episode was good. It’s very similar to the movie.

I skipped last week’s premiere but the OPs enthusiasm makes me curious. I’ll watch both it and ep. 2 this week and see whats up.

Damn, first 2 eps had me laughing more than not. Thanks for the recommendation!

watched the second episode, its a tad better than the 1st episode. Taika Watiti should be in this

I have known SO MANY psychic vampires.

That whole bit is just hilarious. I love how he is presented as the most evil of the vampires.

Hell ya, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'll get myself caught up this weekend too so I can take part in references lmao

Check out the movie when you get the chance if it's still on Netflix. It's honestly one of my top 3 comedy movies (With 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail' and 'Ghostbusters'😉.

I am A-OK with that (as long as it builds on it eventually anyway).

Loved the film, and wasn't sold on this at first. Then I watched the werewolf episode. JFC, I laughed so hard. Really, really enjoyed the season so far, and I'm really glad to see that they've managed to maintain the style and tone of the movie.

Love the show and laugh like hell. Didn't care for the last episode though. It was to dirty for the wife to enjoy.

Maybe you should show her some of your pornos?

I like the inherent goofiness of the show, coupled w. the fact they play some actually horrific stuff for laughs.
These vampires casually murder ppl left & right.
Jenna’s transformation (the fly crawling across her eyeball as she lay in bed, her reflection in the mirror acting independent of her) would have been legit creepy in a different context.
Matt Berry’s character is particularly bad.
He turns a baby into a monster out of boredom, and drops the fact that he was a horrific serial killer in the 1800s…

Yeah, that whole prospect of taking something utterly ridiculous/awful/horrifying and make it as mundane as possible while still not losing the inherent darkness, is one of the best things about the show, if not the best.

Or having them deal with modern problems, like vampires having internet lag, etc.

^^^did you catch the season finale?
SO damn funny!
The resolution to the Gregor storyline and Guillermo plot twist were both really well done.

I just watched it. Damn funny stuff. I lol'd when I saw Guillermo's revelation, and that bit with the stakes.
