Red Rose is a horror series starring Amelia Clarkson and Natalie Hoflin. It is directed by Lisa Siwe, Ramon Salazar and Henry Blake.
Red Rose is one of those urban legends transformed into a series which, if in the hands of others would have been a disaster, but here we have the BBC which tries to make a good series with a plot that seems “impossible” and manages to do it.
A typical teen horror thing which, if it had been done by the usual studio, would have been a total disaster, but here, thanks to good directing, an atmosphere full of references to classics, interesting characters, an attractive story and very good direction andp planning, this series is a delight for the eyes.eferentes clásicos, personajes interesantes, una historia atractiva y una muy buena dirección y planificación hacen de esta serie una delicia que llevarse a la vista.
Yes, it is a Blue Whale kind of thing about Internet stories that are evil and which makes you think that this is just another stupid series: not at all, it will surprise you and absorb you because when horror is well done, knows how to use editing, effects and above all atmosphere and rhythm… it becomes true horror and above all, a great tv series with quality, style and personality.
Our Opinion
We have been pleasantly surprised with all the facets of this which proves that where almost everyone else fails, the BBC wins thanks to intelligence and an array of good writers.
