At some point have to do a search for a body-count, it's gonna be way-way up there. After about eight episodes of this suspense-horror-drama, you start asking yourself how could they possibly keep this up for another five shows... there won't be anyone left standing. And once they begin to knock-off favorite characters, you then wonder who'll be next to go. It takes all the way near the end of a dozen episodes before the bolt out of nowhere hits. All in all, it's a pretty good show, and the cast performs well, with an odd exception or two. Elaine Cassidy anchors the ensemble group with an exceptionally fine performance.. bit.ly/19508pd .. And sure, the story's totally absurd, but pretty much has to be. Would have to imagine there's a huge following watching it over and over, not caring they know exactly what happens next. Once you by-in, Harper's Island produces a surprisingly good slasher-fest for horror aficionados. .. PS.. one site said it was 29 killed off during the 13 episodes... did seem like a lot more, right?
