TRUE BLOOD - SEASON 2

USA: Various Directors, 2009 (Created by Alan Ball)

Another highly enjoyable horror inspired season. I particularly liked the attempts in the script to delve deeper into the vampire lore at the heart of the show and the glimpses of wider 'vamp' society. However, despite being initially intriguing I felt Season 2's main narrative arc, revolving around the 'demonic' possession of Sookie's home town, veered too much toward the absurd and laughable rather than genuinely scary.

However, it's in my blood now (groan!) so onto Season 3!

Score: 8/10
