The opening lines of this series are the same as the French original series which bears the same name; this show is a remake of drama made in 2012 about people who come back to life in a small French village. The original show portrays a perspective of how families would react if this was the case and what the implications would be of these persons' returning to their own daily lives and families.
This remake does not attempt to create its own identity with the plot of the original, it merely poorly imitates both the plot and the atmosphere of the original. The original created an eerie atmosphere which made it engaging and intriguing. It blended beautiful cinematography, an outstanding soundtrack and solid acting to entice you to enter this small village and engage with its world. In this remake the camera shots do not suit the atmosphere it wants to achieve, neither do the actors or the soundtrack.
A remake does not have to mean too replicate; yet this show chooses to replicate the original and does it poorly.
