The Strain (2014) 

English A pleasant genre piece that, after three parts, has no problem keeping the tone set by a somewhat overcomplicated pilot. Interestingly developing characters and the two biggest badasses of the current series - rat killer Vasilij and maestro Satrakian ensure a sufficient supply of platelets. Viggo Nekromortensen Thomas Eichhorst on the other side of the river only completes the beautiful panopticon. The fear that the wheels will fall off and everything will start going in circles disappears in part five. As soon as the fight for life and death begins, The Strain gets going in exactly the way that pulp demands. Te Nosferatu commando and the formation of vampirological-deratization-virological revolts are explicitly top moments. ()
