Oasx posted:First episode was good, I would have preferred a bit more Lovecraft and monsters, but perhaps that will come in later episodes. I assumed it was because the car looked expensive, and they couldn't damage it. Also why when they see what I assume was the same car parked in front of the mansion we're only shown half of it. But it could be magic powers of some kind, because CGI could've taken care of that otherwise.

I've been noticing a lot of shows I watch have strong civil rights plots, to the point where I already knew what was going to happen for the first 40 minutes of the episode. Black people get glared at, it escalates to threats against them, then violence, then racist cop interactions, seen it all before in media... or so I thought. Because of this show I learned what "Sundown Towns" were. There's always more to learn about racism and it's always worse.

So I'm getting vibes of American Horror Story from this show, especially the second episode. The way AHS is rapid-fire plot elements, sometimes connected to each other and sometimes not, and a loose wrapping element to try to make it seem coherent. It's fun to watch but it's not very Lovecraftian.

About the uncle and a spoiler from the book that was spoiler-tagged earlier ITT: Apparently the uncle makes it through the entire book alive, so I was hoping he'd just be dropping impending-doom foreshadowing the entire series like he did in the first episode.
