I Like Dead Silence.I think it had a lot of holes in it though.Unanswered questions and inaccurate scenes like when Jamie went back to the scene where his wife was murdered.He wouldn't have been allowed and when it Showed Mary Shaw in the mirror after she was killed,there was only a little blood around her neck (and none around her mouth,shockingly),whereas anyone would know there'd have been buckets of it.
Some of it was cheesy and looked a little silly.
The good points are that it had real people,not just loads of silly gorgeous looking teens running around.I thought Judith Roberts was perfect for the role as Mary Shaw.It was actually made for her! Nobody else could have done a better job of playing Mary.The emotion portrayed (By Jamie in particular,although brief) was believable and dating back to 1941 half of Ravensfair did Mary in,which happens a lot in real life when a kid goes missing and there is even the slightest hint or rumour about someone that they think might be involved.I think the drama elements were striking because of that.Also,Mary wasn't an in out,simple villain when she was alive e.g. the scene where she was talking to Michael Ashens corpse and could hear him talking back showed more layers and the murder scene where she was getting her tongue cut out,courtesy of the Ashen men and other blokes in Ravensfair gave us a sense of compassion.

Sorry for rambling on and on a load of crap,everyone.
