Joseph Fahim Middle East Eye 07/16/2021
The visual tediousness, intellectual hollowness and overall timidity, as applied to Paranormal, render what could've been a leap forward for regional genre filmmaking into yet another run-of-the-mill Netflix series. Go to Full Review

Seems to me like better could've been done in some areas, mostly VFX and the secondary layers of drama, but all in all, I'm satisfied. Go to Full Review

Paranormal's wry sense of humor and case-of-the-week structure lightens the show up just enough to make its dreary visuals a bit more palatable. Go to Full Review

12/17/2020 Love it!!! they must produce more seasons fsho!! See more 12/09/2020 Its worth a shot. Absolutely brilliant 👏. It has culture,history,fabulous actors and script . The protagonist did a fantastic job as well as the whole crew. One of the best series i have ever seen. Eventhough the storyline appears to be dreary at the beginning, towards the end it turns out to hair-raiser series. All the genres were very nicely combined. This is the first netflix original series with no drugs,sex,alcohol etc. Never mind about the poor cgi done in this series, towards the end of the season 1 they improved alot. They will improve more if there is a season 2. Apart from the cgi everything was just fantabulous See more 12/07/2020 if you find 'Goosebumps' scary then you might like the series. Everything in this series is just so silly to me, awful cgi, questionable scripts, and overly awkward acting main character, the only thing i found remotely interesting is the rom-com and family drama aspect. See more 11/20/2020 An absolute roller-coaster See more 11/17/2020 Great stories.. great acting.. amazing music.. maybe in next episodes the graphics must be better See more inta k @intuciic 11/15/2020 watchable but nothing too interesting See more Read all reviews
