Ok, so I'm kind of series and Tv-shows nerd. I love to escape reality by watching some of them, that's true! Maybe my review will help you to make a better choice. Cause you don't want to waste your time on a bad quality series.
So about archive 81, very interesting exemplar. Why you ask? Because I felt both bored and interested at the different periods of time.
But should you watch it? Definitely yes, but be prepared that it's not like The haunting of hill house or The haunting of bly manor or the Fall of House of Usher.
Let's start: The story is really interesting, sometimes covers really deep topics. And it's very intrigue. The combination of nowadays and the past is fascinating. So cassetes are like a time machine for us, they help to figure out the mystery of what really happened. Thro video archives we travel back in time. The idea is very noice!
Something about cons, the main character... damn, the actor is playing poorly, honestly. All others actors are really good! The same situation with the main female character. Even her friend blonde girl is better, wish she was a main character. Really contradictory! I will wach till the end just because of the story! Also really important thing about it, archive 81 was not finished. So get prepared to not know anything, it will stay as a mystery.
