Featured review
Pretty Entertaining
The Strain is about a viral outbreak in New York City that turns you into a vampire. It follows a team, led by the head of CDC and other residents of the city, as they look for a cure to this virus all the while as they wage war against the evil that plagues their city. It's a show that never slows down and at times doesn't make a whole lot of sense but you'll still have a good time watching it. The best thing about this show is Corey Stoll, who finally gets a job as a lead on a show and he doesn't disappoint. This show may not be for everyone but for anyone who enjoys a good vampire or supernatural show then you'll probably enjoy this too.
