Pick a lane. Be a Sci-Fi movie, or be a horror movie. Obviously the makers of this show have shown they are not capable of doing either, let alone both at the same time. The result is a hodgepodge of weak story lines, jumpy narrative, and an even worse "reveal."
The fact that so many reviewers on here are saying things like, "it takes a while to get good" or "when you get to episode 6" or "yes it's slow, but..."...well, that pretty much tells you all you need to know.
Don't waste your time on this.
