Tasha & Julia

Join us for an in depth discussion and analysis of the 2018 supernatural historical fiction drama The Terror. 

Directed by: Edward Berger

Starring: Ciarán Hinds, Jared Harris, and Paul Ready

For the month of January we will be covering the full first season of this anthology series. This week we are discussing episodes 3, 4 & 5. Based on the book of the same name The Terror follows the 1845 Franklin Expedition on their search for the Northwest Passage. Choices are made and not long into their journey both expedition ships trapped in the Arctic ice. Along with the many practical challenges of being stranded the crew soon start to suspect the polar bear pursing them may be something more sinister. If you want to watch along with us: next week we will be covering episodes 6 through 8!

Scare-O-Meter Ratings:

Tasha - 4 out of 10

Julia - 4.5 out of 10

We will save Jack-O-Lantern ratings for the end of the series.

Consensus: Things are moving now in episodes 3 and 4. We see more backstories and odd occurences unfolding. Episode 5 is where things really pick up by the end when they realize that Tuunbaq may be far more intelligent than just a regular old polar bear... he may in fact be something else entirely.
