Round The Twist is about the adventures of the Twist family who come to live in the lighthouse of the Australian town of Port Miranda. Father Tony is an artist and widower. His three children are twins Pete and Linda and the youngest son is Bronson. From the moment they come to live in the lighthouse, they experience all kinds of bizarre adventures with ghosts, haunted objects and other weird shit. It was a nice series that managed to keep the balance between humor and horror, especially in the first season this was the case. The later seasons were comparatively less, but that was also because a large part of the original cast was replaced because there was 3 years between seasons 1 and 2. Season 3 and 4 had the same cast again, but season 3 reappeared more than 7 years after season 2. That changing cast is the biggest downside to the entire series because you always have the idea that you are watching a completely new series. Season 1 gets 4 stars, the rest on average 3. The entire series can be viewed on Youtube via the Twisted Lunchbox channel.
