Outcast - Season 1
We live for a series of powerful events that speak of a world of powerful adventures. The series begins where a young man follows, searching for answers to why he has been suffering from supernatural possessions throughout his life. There may be something quite different, as his past and present will transform the community paranoid against him for good.

Suffice to say, if you're a fan of Kirkman's bleak and thought-provoking brand of storytelling, Outcast is worth a watch.

With all this time spent checking off genre boxes, there's scant space for the narrative to breathe beyond them.

Outcast takes on demonic possession in fairly riveting fashion, thanks to a no-holds-barred approach to its subject matter, and a decidedly unorthodox pair of exorcists, whose methods might be effective, but are a little controversial, to say the least.

It isn't for everyone, but Outcast is likely to satisfy fans of horror done well.

As it proceeds, the series suffers from the context surrounding it: The netherworld is all over TV... As a result, Outcast feels overly familiar.

Outcast is a Cinemax drama about possession, sacrifice, cruelty and Jesus. In other words, it's not your typical summer show, but it's one you really shouldn't miss.

The moving pieces in Outcast always feel like there's solid ground beneath them. We get to know each character; if not overly well then paced to a satisfying slowness.

Judging by the enthusiastic reactions to the world premiere of Outcast's pilot episode, screened on Monday at the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas, Kirkman and his team have another compulsively creepy hit on their hands.

The cast and the emotional back story in Outcast are compelling, and so is the growing sense that Kirkman is using his tale of demonic possession - based on his own Outcast comic book series - as a broad allegory of domestic abuse.
