The Returned

Anyone else watching this?

 

[paolo]

I have no clue what's going on but I love it

Scorsese's only good film since the 90s. Love when Marky Mark pops up again at the end and shoots Matt Damon in the face.

You're talking about the tv show right? I've never seen it but I've seen this film

Presumably the show is something to do with that although I've never seen any mention of it in the previews etc

Yeah the French TV show is what I meant. I'll watch the film after the programme is finished I think

It's also got an awesome soundtrack by Mogwai, and I'm not normally a big fan of Mogwai's more recent output

 

[IdleRich]

So is there a link between the film and the series?
I knew Mogwai did the music, and like you, am not a fan of their (recent) output.

Nah the Departed film is nothing to do with this at all.

This series has been really good so far I think; no clue what's going on at all but I'm intrigued.

Yeah just watched the second episode. The wtf aspect is great.

I like the slow pacing of it too, Mogwai fits perfectly.

 

[continuum]

I'd definitely recommend this. Watched almost the whole thing in one day. Is on Netflix. Really creepy and music is not bad.

"Nah the Departed film is nothing to do with this at all."

I mean this film

Les revenants 2004
The lives of the residents of a small French town are changed when thousands of the recently dead inexplicably come back to life and try to integrate themselves into society that has changed for them.
