My quick rating - 7.5/10. Presented by one of my favorites, Eli Roth, caught my attention right away when I saw the ad on my headset. It’s an incredibly well-made, fully immersive #Shocktober experience that dives into the myths surrounding Lady Margaret Hodnett, who is said to haunt Belvelly Castle. The idea of her watching visitors through mirrors and reflective surfaces sets up some very effective jump scares that work well in this format. The acting is what you'd expect from a stereotypical horror movie cast, which is fine given the nature of the story. As one of the first mass-market, movie-quality 3D VR series, it’s a standout and definitely worth watching. The lighting, colors, and camera angles truly shine, making the most of the 180-degree 3D VR setup, adding layers of immersion that standard formats simply can't deliver. Being in episodic format, I will admit I was eagerly awaiting my notification informing me the next episode would be available. The sound design is also impressive, adding to the intensity and atmosphere. While the series is relatively tame, likely by design, I’m excited to see what Roth could do with fewer restrictions. This project sets a strong foundation for future high-quality 3D VR180 content, and I hope it inspires more in the same vein. If rated on the sheer tech aspects alone, it would be a 10.
It will NOT do it justice, but you can watch this on Facebook.
