Bite Into This New Poster For Netflix’s ‘HEMLOCK GROVE’

There’s a lot of questions and concerns revolving around Netflix’s new series House of Cards.  How is the show going to affect the future of television?  Does the fact that viewers are essentially binge watching the entire series in one weekend hinder the plan or goal that Netflix set out?  More importantly, why has the company refused to release how many viewers actually streamed the highly anticipated show?  One question that isn’t lingering is whether or not the show is any good.  It’s fairly unanimous that the Kevin Spacey starring political drama is addictive and independent studies have been conducted that prove that the majority of viewers ended up watching the entire series and not just the first episode.  I guess the experiment works.  This no doubt shines a positive light on the company and their new venture into original programming.  Hopefully Eli Roth’s upcoming horror series Hemlock Grove will continue the success.  Horror fans and non-horror fans alike have become aware of Roth’s name over the years and his connection with horror, which certainly bodes well for Netflix.  The new poster for the series is a striking visual metaphor of the monster that lives within all of us and may give us an idea of what horrors we can expect.

All 13 episodes of Season 1 will be available exclusively on Netflix beginning April 19, 2013.

Check out the poster and synopsis below.

From executive producer Eli Roth and based on Brian McGreevy’s novel of the same name, Hemlock Grove is a riveting one-hour murder mystery that revolves around the residents of a former Pennsylvania steel town. When 17-year-old Brooke Bluebell is brutally murdered, any of Hemlock’s peculiar inhabitants – or killer creatures – could be suspects. Through the investigation, the town’s seamier side is exposed, revealing nothing is what it seems. Beautiful, terrifying and graphic, Hemlock Grove is unlike anything else in its genre

HEMLOCK GROVE

Somewhere between growing up on a steady diet of Saturday morning trips to the local comic-book shop, collecting an unhealthy amount of action figures, and frequent viewings of Ray Harryhausen and Hammer Horror films, came forth a nerdy boy that was torn between journalism and the arts. In high school, Michael found himself writing a movie column for the school newspaper. Yet, he went on to get a BFA in Studio Art at Webster University. When not writing about films, you can still find him discussing classic horror, collecting action figures, and reading Batman. Clearly, not much has changed.
