Lovecraft Country 1x1 - Poll!

I hope you all will recognize Ubbe as the "real white" man

Jacob

I think it’s both. Some might be used and others may need to be fought/contained.

Bunny Norris

I'm thinking they might be fighting against the monsters, and may have some expertise on what they are... but within that, part of them could be into some bad shenanigans.

It’s H P Lovecrafts birthday today

ChiefChill

P.s great music too

I have no clue what to think about this show. I just know i like it. A lot

Ryan O'Malley

I think the people are possibly being used BY the monsters or A SINGLE monster seeing as there are many different kinds of monsters in Lovecraftian lore. On a side note since you guys are reacting to Lovecraft Country could we possibly get a re-upload of the Rick plays Call of Cthulhu series?

Dylan Walter

The show is making me not trust white people so I don't trust them which is weird cuz I'm white so I'm having a bit of an existential crisis but joking aside such a good show I would expect nothing less from Lovecraft meets Jordan Peele Fantastic!!

The audio clips you kept hearing are of James Baldwin. He was an author and civil rights activist in the 40s, 50s, and 60s (mainly).

Laryn Grant

It has lovecraft in the name so that should've been a hint lol

Sorin

Not going to lie I really thought it was going to be a fictional historical take about the 1950's. WTF where those vampire monsters?!

Joel

Idk my mind is still processing what I just saw

Chris D. Jones

Idk but I do know that the guy that opened the door at the end was Ubbe the son of Ragnar from Vikings

Fight against them by using them??

kaldurobin

Don’t watch the show so I don’t even know what the hell you’re talking about

DC Fanboy

Both

WhateverIFeelLike

They are fighting against them but they plan to use Aticus to control them.

Doby Greg

Had no idea what this show was about glad u guys watched it otherwise i wouldn't have I think they are going to help fight the monsters Also aaron that song from the end of the ep u heard it on Lucifer he was singing it in one of the ep.

I like to have expectations subverted. So since this is a story half based on racism, I bet they will be some kind of chaotic allies. White people that will help them, but not because of their good and progressive hearts, but because of their own shady objectives. So yes, I believe they'll face the monsters, but they'll eventually become the bigger evil.

Wasn’t it that the neighbouring county/town was founded by witch hunters but the founders of Ardhem were a mystery?

ScarlettMi

Witchy stuff about to happen I think. Probably already happened (in ep 1) when that car flipped over.

mesocarib

When they visted Letitia's brother Marvin and he did digging up on Ardhem he said it was founded by witch hunters in the Salem Trail days so I think this is what followed that.

Jacob Lowe

The guy who answered the door at the end of the episode is played by Jordan Patrick Smith, who is Ubbe in Vikings

I'm confused. Surprised but confused.

Dothral_Joes

This show was not on my radar but I'll give it a watch now that they're reacting to it. Hoping for Harley Quinn soon since it's the only DC show they haven't touched and it's great!

Able

I love you guys
