Uhhh CUTE!!! 😍😍😍

Though, full disclosure... I haven't actually watched them yet because they aren't available in the UK right now but.. thanks to a very lovely lady, I might now have completely legal means. ahem ..you know who you are..

BUT I will say that both Taika and Rhys are geniuses and all their works should be watched. Might I suggest Hunt for the Wilderpeople when you are done? It's brilliant!

Old gay people

Multiple trans people

Overarching theme of coping with a world too far gone to be saved, and dealing with the horrifying changes it's gone through.

"Right now I'm sitting on a sexy motorcycle"

Regularly scheduled interruptions from everyone's favorite capitalist girlboss

A single narrator that can do a fuck ton of different voices, seriously the range is immaculate

Religious Trauma™️

Variety of main locations which include

The leftist commune of your dreams

Evil library

House of evil (that's not even sexy evil like the library)

The Sleepy Box :)

Hotel of Hedonism and Faustian card games

A large cast of characters that, miraculously, are easy to keep track of.

Some absolutely beautiful poetic segments between the narrative pieces. (Three narrative chunks per episodes, I think it splits up nicely like that)

So if you like any of the above, and enjoy supernatural horror that's more supernatural than horror, give HFTW a try, season 1 just wrapped up it's a perfect time to binge.
