Follows book. Some good jump scares (0 more)
Not very scary. (0 more)
Boring and cliche
Pet Semetary has great source material but I think in today's world of the walking dead, zombie _____, etc, this is not a scary movie. No real ambience is established and we only care about the characters because they are an "average family". Ultimately bad things happen and I didnt even care. No emotional attachment built at all. Could have been so much better if more time spent on them as a family and more on their dreams/issues. The stuff with wifes sister was great but father was 1 dimensional

Great series
To my mind, this was a step down from the first series. While we get some well-deserved character development (Holden's mental issues and his reaction to being championed by the new chief; Tench's family issues and him being torn between family and work), the overall story felt like it dragged a little.
The profiling work was crammed into the first few episodes as the later ones focused on trying to catch the Atlanta child-killer. The portrayal of the case seemed very realistic, being long and drawn-out and having to wait for another body to turn up, but for a TV series it was a little dull. Given this is a weaving together of partly fictionalised versions of actual cases, some liberties could have been taken and more killer interviews added in, though I presume these are being saved for later series, of which I hope there are many.

Finding what actually makes friends laugh Dont have to have a drink to make it funny (but it helps) (0 more)
Some of the combos/cards need to be censored for some audiences (e.g. personal/family issues) (0 more)
Wonderfully wicked
Depending on the audience, this game will make or break the evening. Among most friends, and even family, it will be brilliantly horrible fun; sometimes, some of the cards need to be removed for certain situations - we've had to censor one game for a specific subject matter for a specific family member. This doesnt detract from the game, just needs a little forethought.

The game itself is both simple and brilliant, but pay attention to the age restrictions!! I cant imagine many 15 or 16 year olds playing this with family members!! (Although it would probably be hilarious with friends)

This is one of the games we regularly play when we are at friends houses, and often with a drink or two. Very good, and very wrong, fun!
