TRUE BLOOD SEASON 3 BLURAY SERIES
The series was developed by 'Six Feet Under' creator Alan Ball, based on the "Southern Vampire" series of novels by Charlaine Harris. So, yes, 'True Blood' is a whole lot of down-and-dirty fun. About halfway through the first season's twelve episodes, I thought to myself, "Gee, it's kind of strange that this show is set in Louisiana, has all sorts of supernatural stuff going on, and yet there hasn't been one voodoo exorcism." And then, as if my prayers had been answered, not one but two voodoo exorcisms soon took place before the first season's finale. Literally, every Southern gothic cliché is present and accounted for, as if they're being checked off a very long list (lilting southern drawls, hanging Spanish moss, a gay short order cook, a sassy best friend, a delinquent Cajun). For a low budget with computer graphics, after the first weaker episode, the show becomes so realistic, by episode 4 it has griped me in its razor sharp clutches and the downward spiral of darkness is leaving bloody marks on my soul! If you like it you will love it, if you don't like it you will hate it.Watching the HBO original series 'True Blood' is like catching an all-night marathon of Tennessee Williams plays, except that while the director was working out his adaptations, he was openly inspired by his subscription to Hustler magazine and late night, B-grade horror movies (the kind that used to be hosted by adults dressed up like ghouls). It is raw bloody entertainment! This show is so unique, it is in a category with THE WIRE, thought they have noting in common and their uniqueness lies in completely different places, they are bot light years away of what is being made. The first episode is the weakest, but by episode 4 which i just saw i am swearing by all the Roman Gods that this is what i was born to watch. It is not a soup opera and if you are one of those people that got excited by a show like CAPRICA skip this one. It is brutal and it is one of the best shows out there. Why am i so excited by it then: For the ones that want to see fights, blood, brutality, sex, men looking like gods, blood, erotica, excitement, blood, swearing, allot of skulls being bashed, sweat, savagery, arena fights, honor, friendships intrigues, assassinations, and lets not forget some more blood, this is a show for you. If you are under 16 you should not watch it. This is not a series for everyone and many people will find a lot in it offensive. As the series develops, the story follows the betrayals and machinations of Roman life and a tale of one man's heroic quest for vengeance. Spartacus is purchased by Batiatus for gladiator training, who promises to help him find Sura if he proves himself in training.
He becomes a favorite of the crowd, leading Senator Albinius to commute his death sentence to a life of slavery. Spartacus, however, proves to be a formidable gladiator, and defeats the four gladiators tasked with executing him.
Captured by Glaber, Spartacus is condemned to death as a Gladiator, whilst his wife Sura is condemned to slavery. However after Glaber reneges on the deal and switches his attentions from the Getae to attack Mithridates in Asia Minor, the Thracians feel betrayed and mutiny. The Thracians had been persuaded by Claudius Glaber to serve as auxiliaries in the Roman legions in a campaign against the Getae, who had often plundered Thracian lands. The inspiration behind this series is the Thracian Gladiator Spartacus, who led a slave uprising against the Roman Republic.
