The Horror of Dolores Roach

They Called Me Magic Hands

if flora is gonna help dolores retell her story correctly well... she should tag along for the ride, right?

Me; before, during, and after every single ep of The Horror of Dolores Roach S1

The Jackieshauna brainrot is real because why am I watching another show about cannibalism and in the second to last episode theres a scene with women who were really close in college and haven't spoken to each other in nearly two decades and when they finally have a conversation it's laced with an awkward gay kind of tension and my mind immediately went to the adult version of Jackie and Shauna

"Are- Are you gonna kill me?"

"No. No. Worse. I'm gonna tell you shit you could never un-know."

The Horror of Dolores Roach--Review/Thoughts

Okay, so I remember someone on IG talking about this show and I was in search of something to watch. Scrolled upon this and binged the whole season in a day. Absolutely loved it! I've been recommending it to everyone! I would say that this is a dark comedy/ with elements of horror. Some gore and body horror, and the comedy is not campy but I found to be rather tasteful. If you like the movie Sweeny Todd, you will probably like this since the storyline is along similar premises. Man and woman fall in love, some murders are caused by their hands and they use those bodies in the meat pies that she cooks and serves to the public. This is exactly what came to my mind upon watching the first episode and a half. It does not follow that exactly, but still, similar premises. I love the Latina/Latino representation since I don't see enough movies or shows where they are main characters and not sidekick/side characters. The characters of Dolores and Luis were fit so perfectly by these actors---Justina Machado and Alejandro Hernandez---they did an amazing job! The whole cast did, but these two honestly really stood out, which is saying something imo, because most of the time I could care less about the main characters. Their relationship is something I could get behind, because I don't see enough couples of a younger man and older woman in movies/shows, and they had such good chemistry! Not giving spoilers, not really, but things between them ended on a rather tragic note, which I found to be a bit disappointing. But Dolores' want/need for self preservation was obviously stronger than the want/need for love. Also, I just got to say, that I absolutely love the character of Luis. I don't approve of marijuana use, but he doesn't come across as the stereotypical stoner that you normally see. I would say that he is a bit of man child---and there is one scene in particular that made me wonder if that was the event/experience that prevented him from truly growing up. But I applaud Alejandro on his acting in that particular scene, you were pulling on my heart strings sir, I just wanted to give him a big ol' hug so bad. And the crying...I like seeing men cry, not going to lie. It was a sad, but beautiful scene... Both of these main characters have their own issues, and I find that both of them have the problem of letting things go. Dolores refuses to let go of Dominic and Luis refuses to let go of his family's shop. Anyway, I am really hoping that they renew this for a second season! It is so deserved!

I can’t believe she did Luis like that. I’m still in shock.
