- How much do you love Eva Green?
Then you may want to check out Penny Dreadful.
Methodically paced and mysterious, this Gothic thriller is a call back to the days of vampires being bloody villains, dark parlor tarot readings, violent possession, and literary icons such as Frankenstein, his Monster and Dorian Grey come to painful and bloody life.
The cornerstone of the show is Eva Green's knock-out performance as the tortured mistress of the arcane, Vanessa Ives. All 8 episodes are worth a watch but her performance in episode 7, Possession is worthy of nominations.
The show has been renewed for a second season, though the release date has yet to be announced. So get on board now and enjoy the twists and turns of Penny Dreadful!
