True Blood Series 3: Blu ray review

True Blood Series 3: Blu ray review

True Blood Series 3
Rating: R18
Released by Warner Home Video

The phenomenally popular True Blood continues to wow the audiences and critics with its Southern American blend of sex, supernatural and soap.

Picking up directly after the end of Season two which saw Stephen Moyer's vampire Bill disappear after proposing to Anna Paquin's Sookie, the action never really lets up.

Most of the season is consumed with Sookie's search for her kidnapped love and takes in werewolves into the mix as well as expanding the roles of the Vampire Queen and giving a more urgent feel to the vampire/ human conflict.

But the central mystery of the season is essentially concerning Sookie's real nature&

True Blood is a classy mix of the sleazy and the supernatural; with an ensemble cast who get everything right, this at times extremely soapy series hits it out of the park on every level thanks to tight writing, good episode cliffhangers, and smart acting.

Sure, it may not appeal to all thanks to its occasional gore and violence but for an extremely guilty pleasure, you can't go far wrong.

Extras: Commentaries, minisodes and cast and crew look at the werewolves; but the highlight is Snoop Dogg's OH Sookie video

Rating: 8/10
