Note: This Widow’s Bay Review contains minor spoilers!
Today, I wanted to share a short review of a show that absolutely blew my mind. My expectations were met and then some. And that show is Widow’s Bay. Widow’s Bay is a horror comedy, one of my absolute favourite genres. It revolves around a small island town called Widow’s Bay and how a mayors good intentions of bringing more tourists to the island quickly turn into his worst nightmare.
It is VERY difficult to get a horror comedy right. It can’t be leaning too much in either direction and this show was the perfect amount of horror and comedy. The jokes landed perfectly but that sense of something bad is happening never left.
Plot
The plot was a 10/10 for me. There were so many reveals that had me shook, there were so many jump scares that had me flinching, and every episode was so interesting I couldn’t wait to get to the next one. And that last episode made me need a second season. For which they have been approved so yay!
Characters
The characters were the best part of this show. The dialogues, the acting, their “qualms” (iykyk). They were so naturally funny but also intense and had such great backstories too. Even the minor side characters left a mark. Every single actor was perfect for their character.
Overall
If you enjoy horror comedies, this is a show you can’t miss. Finally, an original and well done show.
Sorry for the short review, I got preoccupied because I went to watch Obsession with my cousin and ended up spending a few hours hanging out after too.
