Locke & Key (2020–2022)
2/10
Woefully mishandled.
9 February 2020
Warning: Spoilers
This could have been an absolutely amazing series! It could have been massive, great stories, great special effects, magic and intrigue . Instead it relies on lazy writing, stereotypical teens, and hopes the audience is dumb enough to believe a mom would leave her bratty child home alone because somehow he doesn't need school whilst his older siblings do. How old is Bodie supposed to be? Drinking milk from his bowl like a toddler, putting his arm into the waste disposal like a true moron, leaning into a well like a first grade idiot, yet apparently old enough to be trusted at home whilst his mom goes shopping. Sullen teen daughter, so boringly stereotypical at school with all the same kids as went to school in October Faction. I don't care about any of the characters, they are all lacking in personality, one dimensional and as dull as could be. Such a shame as with a tweak this could have been the next Buffy the vampire slayer or Charmed. It could have been massive. Dreadful (worse than dreadful) acting really compounds this awful show. I've given two stars because I loved the ideas, I loved the stories, I hated everything else.
