Rec me things

[dhampyresa]

So.

For reasons that don't need exploring at this juncture, I want to watch movies/shows/etc that are completely new to me. As a result, I am willing to try pretty much anything anyone is willing to tell me to watch.

How are you with horror elements?

Because I'm enjoying the hell out of the Canadian fantasy western Wynonna Earp, which features the great great granddaughter of Wyatt Earp reluctantly hunting demons and enthusiastically being an asshole, and her adorable little sister trying to help, and falling in love with girls. Also staring a dour secret agent with a supernatural past, and a character from Wyatt's life time. The love triangle is non-obnoxious, the lesbians are pretty cute, and the themes are decently feminist. It's also really funny, has terrible special effects and an earnestness that reminds me of the '90s.

My one caveat with this rec is that it does have a fair amount of body horror gore and blood. Including, at one point, a secondary character being vivisected on screen.

First season is on Netflix, second season just finished airing, third season confirmed for next year.

I'm pretty okay with horror -- except bugs. I've started watching the show and Wynonna is such an asshole, I love it.

There are some spidery things in season two, but they're mostly played for humour.
