The Red King (2024– )
8/10
Quirky Weirdness
27 April 2024
Although this series is basically a police drama with a case to solve the whole weird cult thing and the slightly creepy locals make this a bit different to the normal formula.

I'm not sure the welsh tourist board will be to enthralled with the idea that it has places where the locals are members of a religious cult and seem to be a few brain cells short of an amoeba.

Some class A hammy acting add to the fun and creepiness with the odd piece of gore to satisfy the horror lovers.

It isn't the fast paced sort of drama you get with modern police series, more a Midsommer Murders meets wicker man vibe.

All in all a decent binge watch and hopefully a second series will materialise.
