Jan 10, 2024 · Episode 1 is a wonderfully acted first chapter to this anthological series — Kaitlyn Dever knocks out of the park playing a single mother in a broken home with a conflicted mind. This recap of Hulu’s Monsterland season 1, episode 1, “Port Fourchon, LA” contains significant spoilers.

Directed by Super Dark Times filmmaker Kevin Phillips, "Eugene, Oregon" suffers from a script with heavy-handed and sometimes cluttered messaging. Charlie Tahan delivers a strong performance as Nick, an extremely online social outcast who looks after his sick mother. Early on, the Hulu episode loses momentum when Nick begins visualizing people that...
"New Orleans, Louisiana" will appeal to horror fans with its gory finale, but an ice pick through the ear doesn't automatically translate to quality. What makes the episode unique, however, is the lead performance by Nicole Beharie (Sleepy Hollow) who absolutely owns each and every sequence. She portrays Annie, a New Orleans woman who suppresses me...
"Iron River, Michigan" begins strong with a creepy folklore premise about young women who disappear in the "white woods." Unfortunately, the ultra-talented director Desiree Akhavan (The Miseducation of Cameron Post) doesn't quite stick the landing. For the most part, "Iron River, Michigan" has a tight script that examines how and why a teenage girl...
Directed by Eagle Egilsson, "New York, New York" arguably has the best lead performance and creature reveal in Monsterland season 1. Bill Camp stars as a disgraced business executive named Stan, who snarls and spits while speaking about his tough-love experiences, which appeals to his well-informed yet slightly naive assistant Josh (Michael Hsu Ros...
A true cinematic experience, "Newark, New Jersey" feels like an outlier in Monsterland season 1. Directed by Babak Anvari, who previously adapted Ballingrud's novella The Visible Filth for Hulu's Wounds, the episode stars Mike Colter and Adepero Oduye as Brian and Amy Cooke, respectively; a couple who desperately tries to cope with the disappearanc...
"Port Fourchon, Louisiana" sets the tone for Monsterland season 1 as the introductory episode. Director Anne Sewitsky (Black Mirror, Castle Rock) opens with a proper horror moment that establishes Jonathan Tucker's Alex as the obvious villain. The episode then receives some star power with the inclusion of Dever as Toni, a single mother with a skep...
"Palacios, Texas" on Hulu may not have the directorial polish or star power of "Port Fourchon, Louisiana," but the overall storytelling is more effective. Trieu Tran stars as a fisherman named Sharko, who was disfigured after receiving "a face full of chemicals" during an accident. In the present, he listens to his peers boast about their fishing s...
Starring Taylor Schilling as Kate Feldman and Roberta Colindrez as Shawn Greene, "Plainfield, Illinois" has a wonderful sense of tonal rhythm and the best love story in Monsterland season 1 on Hulu. Directed by Logan Kibens (Snowfall) and the aforementioned Pesce, the narrative centers on a female couple who clash after 15 years together. Whereas S...
