Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Strain Season 2 picks up where the first left off, but with the new season, it loses some of the motivation and tension that made the first season so effective and gripping. Thankfully, midseason, things get a lot more intriguing thanks to the newfound focus on the Master and Eichorst's plans as well as the introduction of a new Daywalker who fights for his own unseen ambitions. Story threads involving Eph and Setrakian, the old warrior, are mostly followed through and tied up to the final episode, with the exception of some cliffhangers that can only be answered in season 3, which may possibly be the last season, as only ten episodes are planned compared to thirteen in the 1st and 2nd seasons. If you're wondering if this is a show you'd be interested in, The Strain is very much about the decisions humans make when presented with greed or fighting against a greater evil, which is a recurring theme throughout the series. Additionally, if you have a tolerance for parasitic worms crawling beneath the skin that infest the human host and turn it into a obedient servant to the Master Vampire, this is the show for you, as there are many, gory examples of this in The Strain.

I completed all my Seasons all four seasons with this vampire horror movie excellent collection

Great item and wonderful quality. Looks great with the rest.

The Strain Season Two follows our group of heroes from the first season as they continue to fight, hunt, and kill the strigoi. This time they are searching for the Occido Lumen an ancient book that tells how to destroy the master and finally stop the attack from the vampire/snake strigoi. New characters are introduced, there are losses, wins, heartbreaks, and victories to an extent. This show is fantastic as I have followed the comics for years. Hats off to Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan for really bringing an excellent adaptation to F/X. If you like action, adventure, horror, mystery, suspense, thrills, and of course a few laughs check this out. Amazing performances by David Bradley, Jonathan Hyde, Kevin Durand, and Richard Sammel.

The second installment of this Horror series is as good as the first. Nuff said too me.

The strain Continues to be a great show. Out of the three viral/pathogen shows that came out recently Helix, The Last Ship, and The Strain. I would say that The Strain is probably my favorite. The premise is pretty interesting and Season two doubles down on some of the great parts of the first season. Interesting take on the subject matter Cool plots and ideas pretty great effects Highly recommend.

I am a huge fan of Guillermo Del Toro and love his work. This is the only vampire show i watch, but be warned this is not your typical vampire. They are more animal-like but controlled by "The Master" like a hive mind and are called Strigoi instead of vampires. The vampires design is similar to the reapers on Blade 2. Great story characters and drama everything you look for in a show.

The strain season 2 has finally been released on DVD! If you have seen season 1 you know what to expect here. Season 2 picks up where the first season left off. More exciting apocalyptic vampire excitement. If you enjoyed the first season you have to keep watching. Now hopefully they don't make us wait too long for season 3 on DVD!

The Strain sets itself apart from the story plot to character development. This idea and director are on a higher level. This is literally the best and most exciting Tv series I've ever encountered! Highly recommended to all!!! Not the little kids!!! Lol

If you survived watching the over-all disappointing season one of The Strain, then your in for a treat with season two. WAY better season in almost every category. Great overall story. And good short stories for the most part and character development, good cause & effect stories and even very cool flashback stories. After you watch this season, you'll be hungry to continue the story.

I look forward to each episode...the creatures are scary and creepy and the story is great...the only problem I have is it spins its wheels a lot...seems like there's a lot of filler episodes where not much happens...but overall I enjoy this series.

Season 1 really dragged a bit toward the end. Season 2 is much better. Faster pace, more action and a much more logical presentation of the problems face by a city over run with vampires. Video and audio quality are surperior to the broadcast level.

Season 2 continues from season 1 with the team getting closer to finding the "master". I was disappointed with one of the team getting killed at the end. I guess it will be a long wait for season 3 to be released, but I will of course purchase it.

This show has a quality all its own. My whole family has gotten hooked on this series! We enjoy predicting what will happen next. My boys are older...but it has even got my oldest son to come over for dinner with the family more often .

Season 2 continues the high end horror. Great show! It shows what is possible when a network makes an effort. Most shows are pretty predictable so the tension needed to generate real horror never happens. It happens with the Strain.

The more I watch the better it gets!! This thing is taking over!!

Actors Corey Stoll and Mía Maestro , our leads in this horrific plague war really get you into this Del Toro & Hogan created horror fest. In a quest to find a weapon to fight the Strigoi some nasty experiments must be done...

This is a great show, with each season getting better. I just wish that they would be faster at releasing the subsequent seasons. This season was hard to find, and I stumbled upon it in a brick and mortar Best Buy.

Very good series. I really enjoy Guillermo del Toro & Chuck Hogans work. They have taken the vampire story in a direction it had not been before. It has more of a science fiction flavor to it rather than strictly horror.

I was pleasantly surprised that the show came back for a second, and now third, season. It has a very interesting slant on the vampire story. Not a romanticized, misunderstood creature, but flat out evil. There is something wonderfully twisted in Del Torio, as co-author of the books and the series.
