I am enjoying it so far. My one gripe is the obvious CG blood/gore. I really wish they had gone back to their roots, and used even more practical effects. I understand that this is a TV show though, on a schedule, and a budget, and they probably don't have time to do everything practically. Or maybe they do have the time, and they are just slacking. I'd like to believe it's the former.

I just think it's a shame because the original films had some creative practical effects, and camera work.

And yet, they still take their star, and poor fake blood into their face to the point where it is joked about by the showrunner. I am just pleased as pie that they do the amount of practical effects they do. Then again, the whole reason why the transition to the title card was so obvious CGI was that it just came off a scene with great practical effects. EDIT: Or like the chainsaw through the gut, it was followed by some great practical effects. (I may be rewatching it right now).

Side note: I swear the reason why horror flicks from the 80s are so good is that they were building of years of practical effects.
