If you can imagine Mena Suvari fan - thats me. I have watched everything shes done and was really looking forward for "South Of Hell". But its just huge disappointment.
First, this is so not a role for her and I keep wondering why is she keep going for completely wrong ones. Mena, you have your looks thats gonna do things for you, make it happen. This Maria role reminded me even on Buffy Summers, but Mena isn't cute - she beautiful and hence - it wont work! Second - script is just plain bad. It does have some potential, but later it goes in many directions and we have only seven episodes - not much. Third - my God, who are rest of the actors - just terrible, with few exceptions. And that wont include Lydia Hearst, who's incredible hot, but come on, just a little effort. But shes looking even good in comparison to Zachary Booth - the weak spot in this show. Everything he does is just bad to the point of comical - and he even has a role of narrator! Wow, dude, were you bored or just trying to sound cool? Don't do it again, please.
In the end, this feels, looks and IT IS - low budget, rushed project that could be better, but it wont, I cant see it getting into season two. I'm happy for opportunity to watch Mena Suvari, but she needs new manager, agent and new inspiration. She is somewhat talented and she got to offer more than just her good looks, but this is clearly not right choice and it wasn't for few years now. Going for horror after all shes done is so not promising. but thats just me speaking career-wise; in her interviews she always sounds happy about herself, and I guess thats all that matters. As a fan, I feel like she could done a lot better and she still can. Time to play grown-up woman now Mena.
