Guest EXPAT Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Anyone else looking forward to the new ABC thriller/drama "The River"? I personally can't wait until this show starts. It looks amazing. Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Anyone else watch the premiere of "The River" on ABC? I must have jumped out of my skin a hundred times tonight. I will definitely have nightmares tonight. Good thing all my Cher dolls are locked in the upstairs closet. . . Quote
Members BigK Posted February 9, 2012 Members Posted February 9, 2012 I didn't like it. I was looking forward to it based upon previews. I didn't like the jerky camera movements and I thought that the story line was weak. What am I missing? Quote
Guest EXPAT Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 I was prepared for the camera action because it is meant to be similar to Paranormal Activity and a docudrama of searching for this lost man. What I liked about it is that they did a good job with making it scary in a unique way. Sometimes that is all I need (as long as it is done well). And that doll thing freaked me out. I'm not a fan of dolls anyway because I keep expecting them to move or blink on their own. So when they did that in this first double episode it hooked me. I guess you'd think I'd run and hide. But as long as my Cher dolls are upstairs in their boxes in the closet then I'm safe. . .LOL Quote
