Finally, a television show that has the potential to scare the crap out of you! Freakylinks gives horror fans a taste of something the X-files just can seem to grasp: fun and mindless terror. Ghosts creeping up behind you, ghouls jumping out from every which way, and all of those other things that go bump in the night. If you're looking for a good, edge-of-your seat thriller, Freaklinks is just that. The show follows Derek Barnes (played by Ethan Embry) who is making a living off of running his deceased brother's spooky website. Barnes and his friends investigate and film - in Blair Witch-like fashion - cases of strange and unusual phenomena and post them on the Freakylinks website. Anything from 400-year-old ghosts to exploding lap dancers is game. While the show's minor characters could use a little polishing (as is the case with every new TV show that comes along), the script and storyline itself is fantastic. That, along with Embry's always exuding boyish charm and sincerity, should make viewers want to delve into the paranormal with the Freakylinks team week after week. Or at least I hope so, for ratings sake.
