Surprisingly fun horror series.

The first thing that strikes you is how beautifully everything is filmed. It all looks very nice. Also a pretty nice soundtrack. The Strain doesn't take itself very seriously and contains quite a bit of humor. Most of it comes from Gus, a stereotypical Mexican 'thug' who is always angry and aggressive, creating one hilarious scene after another. The other characters don't disappoint either: a Russian macho pest fighter, an old Jewish 'Strigoi-hunter' and a self-righteous rock star who is only in business for 'the pussy'.

In terms of horror, there is also quite a bit to enjoy. Some nice gore here and there, and the design of 'The Master' is simply brilliant.

The Strain is not a series that will blow you away completely, but it is very entertaining to follow, partly due to the successful mix of humor and horror.

It started well with that plane, but after that I thought it got a bit less. Fairly exciting horror series, although I don't find it really scary or mega exciting.
But it is entertaining and fun for the horror fans.
