The Terror: Infamy is burdened with uneven historical horror

The Atlantic

"Infamy is constructed a little like a bait and switch," says Nina Li Coomes. "The audience is drawn in, via trailers and other promo materials, with the promise of a ghost story that visually recalls popular J-horror works such as Ringu and Ju-on. But for much of the season, Yuko is a muddy and ineffective villain, and it’s precisely this inefficiency that makes the internment itself stand out so obviously as the show’s central evil. Still, the Infamy’s portrayal of the internment raises the question of which audiences will be most terrified by a stark look at this chapter of American history."
