This series reminded me so much of American Horror Story NYC - set in the 80s, the horrendous treatment towards homosexuals, especially by the NYPD. Haunting and harrowing.
Benedict Cumberbatch is brilliant in his role as delusional, talented, unlikable Vincent. I also enjoyed his voicing of Eric. Multilayered, graphic, depressing and then quite cleverly building tension, I found this mini series very watchable.
