George H @RT68996919 Jul 30 This was a great show and even though it’s been years since they pulled the plug it’s still a shame that they hold on to it. See more Marco L @decatur555 Jun 30 (CASTELLANO) Lo peor de Helstrom no es que esté mal hecha, sino que no te dice nada. Ni provoca miedo, ni intriga, ni interés real por sus personajes. Tenía una premisa que prometía: hijos de un asesino en serie ligados al mundo demoníaco, con traumas, secretos y poderes oscuros. Pero todo se diluye en una serie de diálogos vacíos, personajes que no transmiten nada y un ritmo que nunca arranca del todo. El problema no es sólo de guion, sino también de casting. Ninguno de los actores parece creerse lo que está interpretando, y eso pesa como una losa. Las relaciones no funcionan, las emociones no se sienten, y hasta las posesiones acaban pareciendo rutinarias. Se nota cierta ambición visual, eso sí. Hay escenas bastante logradas en cuanto a efectos especiales, más cuidados que en otras series que se consideran de culto. Pero eso no basta. Da rabia, porque la idea daba para una mezcla interesante entre horror y drama psicológico. Pero ni ahonda en lo psicológico ni logra crear terror real. Se queda en tierra de nadie, y al final, se hace cuesta arriba. Ni siquiera dan ganas de seguir viéndola. Un intento fallido, aunque con envoltorio bonito. (ENGLISH) The worst thing about Helstrom isn’t that it’s poorly made — it’s that it feels utterly empty. It doesn’t scare, doesn’t intrigue, and never makes you care about its characters. The premise sounded promising: the children of a serial killer, tied to demonic forces and haunted pasts. But it all fades into lifeless dialogue, characters with zero charisma, and a pace that never truly takes off. It’s not just a writing issue — the casting is also a problem. None of the actors seem convinced by their roles, and that lack of conviction drags the whole show down. Relationships don’t click, emotions don’t land, and even the possessions feel routine. Visually, though, there are some strong moments. The effects are far better than in some so-called “cult” shows. It’s frustrating, because the idea had real potential to blend horror with psychological depth. But it doesn’t go deep, and it doesn’t scare. It ends up stuck in the middle — and honestly, it’s hard to keep watching. A failed attempt, albeit nicely wrapped.

See more Michael T @Tur7on 10/07/2024 This is my favourite marvel series upto date, I can't believe I avoided it for so long mainly because it's not included in the MCU, but with the MCU giving more and more adult based material the green light now, and especially with the midnight suns, this would of been an excellent first look into the MCU paranormal genre.
