More Critic Reviews for Channel Zero Candle Cove All Critics (21) | Top Critics (4) | Fresh (18) | Rotten (3) Candle Cove stands in direct opposition to the histrionics of American Horror Story and the like; it's a quiet, unsettling work that builds to a buzzing, static-hum crescendo in its final act. May 4, 2017 | Full Review… Travis Johnson FILMINK (Australia) Top Critic Channel Zero: Candle Cove is faithful to creepypasta in the way that matters most: by recognizing that children can experience fear that's as complex, terrifying, and real as anything felt by adults. Oct 26, 2016 | Full Review… Lenika Cruz The Atlantic Top Critic It's even more disturbing if you have kids...and a guy in your backyard wearing a skeleton costume. Dec 3, 2018 | Full Review… Nick Venable CinemaBlend We're not sure we've ever seen anything like the tooth child in Candle Cove, and it has haunted our dreams ever since. Dec 3, 2018 | Full Review… Ian Sandwell Digital Spy Season one is okay to miss. Visually it's done really well... but I need stuff to move and I was just sitting there staring at the TV just wondering when things were going to happen. Aug 28, 2018 | Full Review… Funmi Sunmonu Add This To Your List But the finish of the series, we do not know if it is intended or because of lack of means, but the lack of charisma of its protagonist weighs down a series that wants and can only partially accomplish its goal. [Full Review in Spanish] Jul 9, 2018 | Full Review… Natalia Marcos El Pais (Spain) Channel Zero is the answer to our unfulfilled nightmares. It is easily the scariest show on television...so why the hell aren't you watching it? Mar 15, 2018 | Full Review… Vanessa Bogart Slashfilm Channel Zero is a slow-drip of terror, but the compelling mystery underneath will keep you glued to the series even when everything else in your brain is telling you to shut it off. Mar 15, 2018 | Full Review… Dustin Rowles Pajiba The strength of Channel Zero lies in its ability to offer brief but deeply unsettling flashes of horror that go beyond just the creepy marionette puppets featured in the Candle Cove scenes. Mar 15, 2018 | Full Review… Jamie Righetti Film School Rejects It's a compelling mystery built from the questions the story raises and true to the horror it evokes. Nov 9, 2017 | Rating: 7/10 | Full Review… Sol Harris Starburst View All Critic Reviews (21) Audience Reviews for Channel Zero: Candle Cove ½ I am genuinely surprised that they could turn a creepypasta into a TV series, the 6 episode format worked well. Not that creepy as the pasta but still entertaining.
