Styx plot

Police officer Raphaël Styx is corrupt, his wife Isabelle has filed for divorce and his children are estranged from him. One night on the beach of Ostend he surprises a masked murderer who strangles a man. He chases the perpetrator to the pier, but there the killer pulls out a gun and shoots Styx. When the sun rises again over the chilly North Sea, Styx's body washes up on the beach. He is still alive and opens his eyes, but he no longer feels a pulse... What kind of nightmare has he ended up in?

Styx season 1

Actually the first full-fledged "horror series" from Flemish soil and a Streamz product.
And while there was some mystery in the beginning, this disappears quite quickly and no, then it really only goes downhill for me, kitsch horror, which made me laugh more than anything else. Take Sebastien Dewaele who quickly notices that everything is not right and that he has to continue as a zombie, among other things, but the whole cast and story really came across as wrong and laughable.
And Koen De Bouw, who has already shown his talents many times on the silver screen and on screen and is truly one of our better actors. Well, even he lacks punch and does not take the series to a higher level, no, his high haircut does not change that, on the contrary, it also comes across as rather funny.

So Flanders and horror, it was already a very difficult, almost impossible marriage in terms of film and well, this "horror series" only confirms that horror appears to be difficult to create here.

Let's stick to the drama, comedy, thriller, action, court genre, especially in terms of series.

This series gets a poor 4/10 from me.

Styx season 1

Styx is not one of the best in the market. They don't like him at work, his wife cheats on him with an African and his only son is an ungrateful wimp. With these premises they could certainly have delivered something better than this miserable series. After a not bad first episode, it quickly became a struggle to get through the episodes. As far as I'm concerned, they lasted too long and the plot wasn't interesting enough. The eccentric doctor, played by Koen De Bouw and the fantastic actor Aimé Claeys (who gets a fairly eloquent script here) try to make the best of it and the Streamz marketers also worked overtime to convince us of the opposite, but this was really a mess. It's nice that we are exploring the horror genre here in Flanders, but it just had to be better.
