American Gods – Season 1, Episodes 1- 2 Review . Watch Restless Online (2017). That detail most often involving gorgeously photographed gourmet dinners and artfully eviscerated corpses. And that devil, of course, being Dr Hannibal Lecter (Mads Mikkelsen), a sophisticated charmer and an arch- manipulator so consistently a step ahead of everyone else you suspected he was omniscient. In Fuller's latest venture American Gods, that detail now focuses on such trashy Americana as a dive bar shaped like a giant gator mouth; the hidden mechanisms of everyday objects (as shown through impressive macro photography of a jukebox and door- lock in these first two episodes); and some gloriously ultraviolent tableaux.
During the first episode's 8. AD- set prologue, for example, we witness a blood- drenched Viking battle in which a severed, sword- clutching arm arcs through the air in elegant slo- mo. At one point, in a . This is a show where the borders of reality itself are porous. As for this show's devil?
Well, in fact quite different from Hannibal. Despite also being a sophisticated charmer, in his own words .
The glass- eyed Mr Wednesday's true nature isn't hard to guess (and if you're familiar with Neil Gaiman's source novel then you already know), but he certainly has a better reason for seeming omniscient than Mikkelsen's Dr Lecter ever did. Though it's adapted from very different source material, and co- written with Michael Green (who worked on Heroes and Smallville), American Gods feels like a stylistic sequel to Hannibal, with the first two episodes directed by one- time Hannibal regular David Slade. Except this eight- episode story's supernatural overtones feel considerably more appropriate to Fuller's baroque, nightmarish- operatic flourishes than Hannibal's serial- killer antics which, quite frankly, became so overwrought they got silly. Here the dream sequences are more epic and portentous, involving visions of petrified forests carpeted with human skeletons and ceilinged by the vast, cold cosmos. The blood flows just as prettily as it did in Hannibal, but even more freely, whether gushing from bisected Dark Age warriors or dripping from an ancient slaughterhouse hammer.
Desire, too, can be just as deadly. One jaw- dropping scene in the opening episode, as erotic as it is terrifying, sees Mad Men's Joel Murray enjoying the best sex of his life with mysterious seductress Bilquis (Yetide Badaki) when she hungrily swallows him whole, in a manner that would give even David Cronenberg nightmares. Very sexy nightmares, but nightmares nonetheless. Fuller's favoured atmosphere of insidious doom is the ideal match for Gaiman's source text — arguably his best novel — which concerns a clandestine, pantheistic war between culturally conjured entities both ancient and modern. And while central performer Whittle, formerly of Hollyoaks via The 1. Shadow, your attention will more likely be drawn to the guest actors filling the ranks of the titular deities. Joining Mc. Shane we have Gillian Anderson as new god Media, doing an uncanny impression of Lucille Ball (.
But it's never less than compelling, offering an innovative, fantastical skew on the American immigrant narrative, and a visual feast throughout. If Fuller and Green maintain the sky- high quality of these first two episodes, this will be something very special. American Gods airs on Starz in the US Sunday nights starting 3. April and on Amazon Video in the UK from 1 May.
