To See or Not to See: Freakish

October is full of frights. And, if you’re looking for something new that’ll keep you up ALL night, check out AwesomenessTV’s Freakish—exclusively on Hulu. The binge-worthy show is scary good. And, all ten episodes are available now.

Freakish follows a group of students who are trapped at their small town high school after a meltdown happens at their local chemical plant. They must band together and fight for survival as mutant freaks begin to take over. Yikes!

It’s The Breakfast Club meets The Walking Dead. So, it’s kind of amazing. And, it’s led by an all-star cast that includes:

Talk about a stellar cast. Amirite? There’s not one weak performance in the bunch. You quickly find yourself rooting for their characters even though they’re flawed and full of angst. It’s clear from the start that no one is safe. No one! It not only helps build the show’s suspense but it keeps things from going stale. And, there are moments where you might find yourself jumping out of your seat. I did!
