Embark on a thrilling journey as Oren Peli, Director of PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, and Executive Producer Steven Spielberg bring chilling legend and lore to life. Paranormal thriller THE RIVER follows the story of world-famous wildlife expert and TV personality Dr. Emmet Cole (Bruce Greenwood), host of the beloved series "The Undiscovered Country." After Cole goes missing deep in the Amazon, his family, friends and crew set out on a haunting and treacherous adventure to find him. Led by his wife, Tess (Leslie Hope), and estranged son, Lincoln (Joe Anderson), the rescue mission will lead them deep into the unexplored regions on the Amazon River -- a place where nature is cruel, magic is real and nothing is what it seems. Uncover the ancient secrets of the Bouina in the heart-pounding first season of ABC's THE RIVER, and dive even deeper into the mystery with never-before-seen bonus features. The shocking truth is waiting to be discovered... if you dare.

PLEASE CONTINUE THIS SERIES, IT IS BETTER THAN ANY YET OUT THERE..........
This was better than any series out there. WHY OH WHY WAS THERE ONLY ONE SEASON RELEASED. I spent grad school on the Amazon Basin, on the Rio Napa, around the villages of Tena, Jatun Sacha in Ecuador. I loved this series so much. the legends, stories, mystery all go back to a zillion stories of the peoples, and this movie was such an enchantment of that to me...I loved this series..PLEASE CONTINUE THIS SERIES!

English review below the spanish review

No entiendo por qué esta serie tiene malas reseñas en rottentomatoes, es una serie maravillosa, llena de misterio, buenas actuaciones y una historia fascinante que nos encantó desde la primera vez que la vimos hace años. Por eso fue que la compramos, para poder volver a verla de lo mucho que nos gustó. No voy a hacer una reseña entera, solo decirles que la serie sucede en el Amazonas donde hay algo extraño que sucede. Los tripulantes están en la búsqueda del esposo de la que dirige la expedición, y todo se ve a través de cámaras que graban lo que va sucediendo, lo cual es un acierto porque la hace sentir distinta a muchas otras series que he visto. Es una serie llena de magia y algo de terror, lo cual lo mantiene a uno pegado al borde del asiento.

Si no se la han visto, obvien los comentarios al respecto y dense esa oportunidad, es en serio muy bien hecha, nos devoramos los capítulos en pocos días, uno ya quiere saber qué va a pasar. Tal vez el único capítulo algo flojo es el primero, pero empieza a escalar poniéndose muy MUY buena.

I don't understand why this series has bad reviews on rottentomatoes, it's a wonderful series, full of mystery, good performances and a fascinating story that we loved from the first time we watched it years ago. That's why we bought it, so we could watch it again because of how much we loved it. I'm not going to do a whole review, just tell you that the series takes place in the Amazon where there is something strange going on. The crew members are in search of the husband of the one who leads the expedition, and everything is seen through cameras that record what is happening, which is a wise decision because it makes it feel different from many other series I've seen. It is a series full of magic and some terror, which keeps you glued to the edge of your seat.

If you haven't seen it, skip the comments about it and give it a chance, it's really very well done, we devoured the chapters in a few days, you already want to know what's going to happen. Maybe the only weak chapter is the first one, but it starts to escalate getting very VERY good.

"The River: Season 1" is an absolute must-watch for anyone who loves mystery, adventure, and suspense. This gripping series follows the journey of a documentary crew who travel deep into the Amazon jungle in search of a missing wildlife expert. What they discover there is nothing short of terrifying.

One of the standout features of "The River" is its impressive storytelling. The series weaves together a complex and multi-layered plot that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. Each episode is full of twists and turns, with new revelations and shocking discoveries that will leave you guessing until the very end.

The cast of "The River" is also outstanding, with each actor bringing depth and nuance to their role. The crew members have a real chemistry and camaraderie that makes you feel like you're right there with them in the jungle. The show also features a diverse cast of characters, which is refreshing to see.

But what really sets "The River" apart is its use of horror elements. The series isn't afraid to go to some dark places, with supernatural occurrences and eerie settings that will send shivers down your spine. It's a perfect blend of adventure and horror that will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout the entire season.

Another thing that impressed me about "The River" is its attention to detail. The production design and cinematography are top-notch, creating a fully immersive and believable world in the heart of the Amazon. The series also features stunning wildlife footage that adds a layer of realism to the show.

In conclusion, "The River: Season 1" is a thrilling and suspenseful series that is not to be missed. Its impressive storytelling, talented cast, and use of horror elements make it a standout in the genre. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a new show to binge-watch.
Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2013
so I saw this advertised on the chiller channel and it looked really good but I missed the first two weeks or so of it coming on that channel so I bought it since it was so reasonably priced. the first episode got me hooked!!! and the last episode left me wanting more. I gotta say I never watch shows like this but the way it was shot and the setting made me get interested in it in the first place. I didn't expect to like it as much as I did. but it was really good, I googled around to see if there was a season 2, but all I saw was about it getting canceled from the channel that originally aired it which I think was abc? not sure, but Im very disappointed that there is no follow up season, you can only conclude from the ending that they never was able to leave and all eventually died. which with the ending they left us with it coulda been so much more if they had a season 2. so yes this is a good show, but because there is no season 2 and an open ending makes me sad to have watched it, I guess thats because I cant stand movies or shows that leave you with no real ending. I must add the way this was shot made for an even more unique experience. either way Im glad this show was made and I watched it, I just wish they would had made a season 2.

I loved this show!! I’m so sad it was cancelled after just one season :( The plot is interesting and exciting. The acting was great. Stunning visuals. So happy I have the DVD to watch since this show is not on streaming services.

Don’t forget…. There’s magic out there!

A hard to find item , 'The River'. It's plain to see why it lasted only six episodes. Sometimes 'keeping it simple' is difficult when you're dealing with egos.

5.0 out of 5 stars nature documentary + horror, two of my favorite things
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 31, 2013
I haven't yet seen the whole series, but based on the first two episodes, I bought it. It's obviously not the best horror I ever seen, the scares are quite predictable and anyway, I'm more into horrors that induce fear rather than jumpscares. The biggest reason why I like this is the use of Brazilian and other South-American folk legends, which are (most of the time) quite accurate and authentic.

本作品はどう考えても続編がなければ完結しない物語だと思います。最終話も物語の完結になっていません。
ストーリーもよくできており、テンポや配役も高得点なのでこれで終わらせるのはもったいない感じがします。
これで一応の完結をさせている理由、続編が制作されなかった理由は知っていますが、それでも続編を期待して星を一つ減らせておきます。
