Netflix viewers have voiced frustration over the lighting in 'Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen', the new series from the Duffer Brothers, creators of 'Stranger Things'. The eight-part show, released on March 26, follows bride-to-be Rachel (Camila Morrone) as she prepares for her wedding at a secluded family home, plagued by a sense of impending doom.
Despite an 83% score on Rotten Tomatoes, fans have taken to IMDb and social media to complain about the show's dim lighting. One viewer wrote: 'So... let's make something where the lighting is so bad that no one is seeing what is going on. Let's make the walls dark, the faces grey, and the rest gloomy.' Another added: 'Can barely see anything. I understand that a dark and moody film works in cinema, where you have great image quality and you're sitting in a dark room. But Netflix is different.'
An X user fumed: 'Something Very Bad is Going to Happen. No, it already did. The lighting. It being bad happened. Why do shows want us to strain our eyes, man.' However, some fans have praised the show's unpredictable plot, with one calling it 'gripping, dark, unforgettable'. 'Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen' is streaming now on Netflix.
