Emphasis on 'Holy' as it has very religious overtones, but not in the manner you might think, the religious aspect of it is essentially trying to use overly religious themes to shine a light on humanity.

But what a series...I'd highly recommend it although I know I'm definitely late to the party on this one.

Its on Netflix. I'd say a solid 8.5/10.

The pacing is...its very strange. It goes from very slow and pedestrian to warp speed at the drop of a hat, there is no middle ground, but its just so fantastic.

I could say a lot more about it, but the show really is worth watching. Written and Directed by Mike Flanagan of 'Haunting of Hill House/Bly Manor' and 'Doctor Sleep' Fame.

It had a very 'Stephen King-ian' vibe to it, but its not based on any of King's works.
I ####ing love Midnight Mass.
