Review of Oderbruch

Oderbruch (2024– )
4/10
Not what it pretends to be...

Warning: Spoilers
First of, the acting and cinematography is very good for a public-service broadcaster production. Setting, mood, everything very dark and a certain resemblance to the tv-series with the same name, even some of the same actors.

But if you expect a dark crime show you might be really disappointed, like I was, because this series is nothing but a misleading vampire tale. The first 4 episodes are still good because you might be tempted to think it's going an almost True Detective's way in the sense of occult sect or serial killer, but no, it's just a very blunt and uninspired vampire tale, with the usual "bad guys" and essentially about having to drink human blood and the kid struggling with it.

If stereotypical vampire tales don't bother you, please go ahead and watch it. I just wished I would have known before I started this.
