While Darknet never feels like a full-formed series, the individual moments are worthy of praise. Stop thinking about the bigger picture and enjoy the moment, because Darknet does boast more than a few really good ideas. Some of the directors and writers that take part in this anthology have some interesting things to bring to the table. Some stories explore the imagined horror, yet without the lack of pay-off that usually comes with that premise. Certain moments shine with ingenuity. A breast implant surgery takes a horrific turn. A hospital patient finds herself trapped in a living nightmare. There are a few jump scares in Darknet, but most of the horror comes from the atmosphere hanging over this show. The good thing about each new character not being around for very long is that we watch each story, totally unable to guess where this particular chapter is going to end up. The one thing missing from the line-up is a supernatural villain, so the horror is very real and gritty. Anything that happens on this show could very feasibly happen in a real life scenario. The directors show us just enough of the murders to satisfy the audience (the show opens with a terrific intro), yet cut away, so we have to imagine the rest of the horror. There is also a wide range of directional styles, so there is something for every horror fan. We get home invasion horror, we get a slow unravelling of horrific clues and we get bloody murder. We even get a nice break from the scares for a few horror comedy chapters (full-on horror after full-on horror rarely works, after all). Shaun Benson's character probably won me over the most because his two stories (one involving an encounter with his creepy doppelganger and another involving a mix-up with his prostitutes), are rip-roaringly funny, yet still keeping that creepy horror vibe we expect. They also, like most of the stories here, end in the most unexpected way imaginable, which is Darknet's strongest card. This is more than a horror; it is a mystery show as well.

This series is six-episodes long and though similar, each episode offers something new. The defining characteristic of the series is the intensity - the story is certain to hold your attention and tickle your nerves scene after scene.The first episode features a woman who is concerned that there is someone else in her apartment; a killer operating near the underpass and a troubled man going through a divorce tempted by a trail of clues. The stories are all interconnected, some scenes non-linear. In most instances, the viewer is sure to be surprised and thrilled by the revelations. There is a consistent creepy atmosphere throughout, with erotic tension and mild gore making an appearance every once in a while. The cinematography and music went very well together with a tightly- knit plot each time.My only complain was with episode four, which seemed uninteresting and unwatchable, so uncharacteristic and out-of-place.The series ends with a well-placed scene that ties it all together, just as Darknet binds the several characters and stories like a loose, disturbing thread.Only the most unimaginative viewers would dislike this series. Watch it while you can. Or I'll hack you to death.

In short. Very interesting well written and out of the ordinary. I like how the series ties all the stories together in some way during the episodes so it keeps you guessing what's going to happen next. Not your run of the mill horror stuff some really freaky things happen that really surprise you. So the stories keep your interest.I am really interested to see how season 2 starts given what happened at the end of season one. But with that said for any horror fan I think you will be pleasantly surprised at this.Its a Canadian series and I don't think Netflix has the next season yet which is a real shame. NICE WORK From our Neighbors to the north!

My Husbear and I where searching up something good to watch. This was one of those shows where we thought it was just going to be another cheesy anthology series. Boy, we where wrong. Darknet is gruesome smart. A Puzzle of a series that all connects by this spooky website... almost like that Best Gore site. I loved watching all of the episodes and it's a quick watch too cause it's just so damn intriguing. We would be like, "Oh wait, I think that happens"... and then it turns the tables and something else happens that you'd least expect. There is some confusion at first- but that means they are making a show that makes the audience truly use their heads and think and be surprised at the outcomes. This is one of those shows that you have to watch more than once to see what you may have missed. It rivals American Horror Story and this show doesn't have a lot of publicity... it's truly a hidden gem. Netflix really needs to pick up a season 2 for this show stat.
