      Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald A slow burn rather than a carnival ride of scares. Jan 28, 2022 Full Review Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya Autostraddle Jump-scares and quick hits of horror come from those elements, but the most unnerving parts of the series hinge on the deep dread of isolation. Jan 27, 2022 Full Review Alison Stine Salon.com Video is alluring as a medium. And in Netflix's mystery series Archive 81, it takes on a power as mysterious and majestic as Cthulhu. Jan 26, 2022 Full Review Nuha Hassan Hear Us Scream The drama and horror features will rope the viewer into the series slowly, however, it takes time for the suspense to build up. Jul 21, 2023 Full Review Meara Isenberg CNET Archive 81 is worth digging out of Netflix's vault. Apr 6, 2023 Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut Archive 81 is that WTF series we’ve been waiting for. Rated: 4/5 Nov 2, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

      Jon L I’ll never understand why this was canceled. The story and acting were top notch. Such a refreshing original story. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/03/24 Full Review Michael R Definitely worth the watch. Just wish there was more seasons. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/16/24 Full Review Elisabeth B One of the most novel stories i have seen in the last two decades with excellent acting and filmography without trying too hard. Mysterious, dark, engaging and bizarre. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/14/23 Full Review Rodrigo S It is a mixture of Lost, Dark, Frequency, The Ninth Gate and some others. Although the performances are not top level it is a fun story that can help you in between series. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/10/23 Full Review Dark 3 I dont like melody, run around with camera and giving orders to others in a condescending manner Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/04/23 Full Review Wulfgar S This show does many things right, it nails the creepy atmosphere and has a believable cult. Even the villainous entity is well done. However, the series functions purely on the stupidity of its main characters. The cult isn't particularly intelligent or cunning, they're pretty straightforward and even tell the characters what's going on at several points. The whole show reeks of "we gave the MC a clear chance to do one simple thing and end this all right here, which any normal person would've done, but the show needed to go on so they did the exact opposite." As usual bad writing ruins modern media and makes everything unbelievable. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
