Lovecraft country
and vampires.
Episode one of Lovecraft Country kicked
off
amazingly titled 'Sundown' we get right
into the action.
Basically we're introduced to our three
main characters.
Atticus or Tic as he's called Uncle
George,
Uncle Heorge's wife and his daughter. We
see two Leti
and we see Leti's sister Ruby, who i
think is gonna have a
larger role too throughout it, but
basically it's our core three right here
of how they got together
and what they're going on the journey.
Like i said in my preview Uncle George
does
the negro safe guide to travel so he is
always going on trips
to go scout out a location an area and
see if it's safe.
So the pilot sets all that up we see
where they live where they're from and
south side of Chicago. We see the strife.
We see
um Tic's own strife with his family, with
his father, with
his very good relationship with Uncle
George and his family
and then we get into the meat of it sundown. Ardham and Ardham is not on the map
anymore. There's like a road, it's like a
secret road. They can't find it. Then they
have an interaction with the Sheriff
and the Sheriff is very racist. He calls
it a sundown
county, which i like what? Which basically
means like you're not supposed to be out
after sundown
and yeah yeah yeah. So they have to get
out of this county by sundown.
Of course the Sheriff is crooked and
he traps them. Here's the funny part is.
They take them into the woods.
They are sundown county just like the
Sheriff said.
They're hearing all these noises and I'm
like oh the monsters are gonna be coming
out right?
You would think if the Sheriff is the
sheriff of this county
and they're a sundown county. They're
obviously a sundown county because of
the monsters,
but they now used it for their own
benefit in racist ways.
Yeah. All these creatures come out eats
some of his men
kills them. Leti and Tic get to a cabin
and then the Sheriff makes him let him
in with one of his guys
and the Sheriff's been bitten. Ooooh.
Uncle George is out there, finally he
gets in and basically what they realize
is these monsters are vampires.
Frigging the sheriff's gonna turn into
one and Tics yelling
at the other guy to shoot him shoot him
he's like shoot the motherfucker.
He's like that's what he's yelling. I
love that. The sheriff eats his guy
because he's turning into a freaking
vampire
and then escapes even though Tic shoots
him.
There are these vampires. They don't like
the light. Leti is able to run
to their car. She uses her camera,
which means she's gonna get pictures of
them. She uses the car, but then they're
walking.
They find this big big mansion.
They knock on the door and a white man
opens it up
and says they've been waiting for them
and welcome home. Straight straight cray. It's not his
father.
We don't know why this big mansion was
just hidden in the woods.
This got me thinking that Atticus family
are possibly
vampire hunters and monster hunters
and that's what the big secret is. That's
what his dad came to
find out. His dad is not there, maybe he's
some sort of
amazing vampire monster hunter. Maybe
he's supposed to break the curse.
They're going to be figuring out what
the secret society is.
The day before a pickup truck followed
them
and was shooting at them yeah because
they're in racist country
and this really nice car ended up
cutting off the pickup truck
because they like raced the pickup truck
and the
the pickup truck ended up flipping and
that car is
at this mansion that they go to. So i
think these people were keeping tabs on
Tic
as he comes to this area looking for his
father.
The first episode creepy, super cool.
We now know vampires. We now know there's
a secret society
that has this mansion. They're white
people.
Yhey're not black people. Yhey are white
people,
but they've already helped Tic and
Leti and Uncle George
get away from the guys that were trying
to um
burn them. So with no knowledge and just
the knowledge of this episode that we
just saw,
it laid a really awesome foundation.
Vampires that's what these monsters are.
I'm sure there's gonna be other monsters.
I'm sure there's gonna be ghosts.
It seems like there's gonna be a whole
horde of creatures that they're going to
be fighting off.
Vampires are at the core of it and that
Tic is some sort of vampire hunter
some sort of person who can break the
curse
kill these. Maybe bring Ardham back into a
time.
Maybe rid um this county of its racist
ways.
