Review

 

A chilling reinvention of the unforgettable 1970's series - written by Primeval writer, Adrian Hodges and based on Terry Nation's original novel.

Left bewildered and numb, untouched by a virus that had swept across the world destroying all but a random selection of desperate souls, these are the 'lucky ones' left alive when so many died. This lonely few now have to step into a strange new world where everything that was once safe and familiar is now strange and dangerous.

Among those struggling for survival are Abby, a devoted mother with a missing son; Greg, a loner, hiding the pain of his past; Anya, a doctor who has seen too much; Al, a playboy who becomes surrogate father to Najid; and Tom Price, handsome, dangerous and a high security prisoner before the virus hit.

In the ghost cities and empty fields, power, water and food supplies are scarce. Just to stay alive they will have to band together, utilise their talents and learn new skills. But can they all be trusted? And what new trials await those trying to rebuild a dead civilisation?

Has plenty of potential!

Some of the characters are a bit wooden and i wondered if they were acting or really that is how they are! ;-)

Based on the Terry Nation novel this up-to-date re-imagining looks at what life would be like should the planet be decimated by a virus. Unfortunately for me, like others, this 1st series is too short unlike the original series.... The cliffhanger was so obvious though.. too many times did they show the main characters video of her searching for her son...

I do wonder where the 2nd series will go and things can only get better so they say.

Customer rating: 2 out of 5 stars not much life here

The original series from the 70`s was boring enough without trying to update it.post apocalyptic things never appealed to me and this travesty is no exception.acting,script,everything was pretty awful.perhaps the dead should stay that way.
