The Hollywood Reporter speaks with showrunner Misha Green about the HBO thriller's tone-setting debut, called 'Sundown.'
about the iconic action movie's influence on thepremiere, "and we talked about that a lot when it came to the run at the end of the episode.", directed by Yann Demange and written by Misha Green, there’s no shortage of monsters. Any fear that the series would keep its supernatural elements on the periphery during the premiere are quickly and brutally assuaged. At the climax of the episode, Tic , Leti , and George endure a bloody encounter with the show’s original take on vampires.
It’s this consideration of love that brings Tic back to the South Side of Chicago after receiving a note from his father, Montrose , who has been missing for two weeks after venturing out to search for the truth of Tic’s mother’s family history. In a letter to Tic, Montrose explains: “I know that like your mother, you think that you can forget the past. You can’t. The past is a living thing. You owe it.
Just when Tic and company seem safe, they realize they were never even given a chance to win, as Hunt’s cops are waiting for them at the county line. At this point,enters the woods, and the intersection between the horror of racial injustice and the horror of the supernatural collide with spectacularly bloody results.
I was familiar with Lovecraft, being such a big horror fan, and his contributions to the genre. But you can also read any Lovecraft text and pretty much see the racism, so I wasn’t a huge fan of him. But what I liked about this idea was reconciling what he contributed to the genre, and not ignore that he was this big racist. And so you could take the good stuff and build upon that with more good, and then talk about the bad.
