FX’s “The Strain”

No more sparkling vampires. No bottles of true blood will save New York. The end begins on Flight 753 tonight at 10 PM on FX.

We watched the pilot screener and have to warn those who are faint of heart… this is not a romantic vampire tale, it is scary, stark, vivid and well produced. Horror just begins to describe. This is the story my mother was afraid I’d watch for fear I’d not sleep without nightmares.

With that said – if you like this genre – you don’t want to miss this series. 

The Strain is based on the best-selling Novels by Oscar® Nominee Guillermo del Toro and Chuck Hogan.

“The Strain” (FX) at 10 PM

“House of Cards” veteran Corey Stoll plays the head of the Centers for Disease Control Canary Team in New York City. But they don’t fight canaries: They must investigate a mysterious viral outbreak with hallmarks of an ancient strain of vampirism.
