Okay, it’s not a major victory like Midway, getting an agent, or a contract from a big 5 publisher but it is still a check in the ‘win’ column.

For a couple of weeks I have been thinking about a foreign tv series that my sweetie-wife and I watched on SHUDDER. We like it and there was a second season but before we could get around to starting that it expired from the service.

Years, many years, pass and here I am thinking it would be nice to locate and watch the second season except I can’t remember the title of the series. I couldn’t even be certain of the nation that produced it.

I remembered it was a Nordic nation, or maybe Germany. The title was a single word but not only was it a word in language I do not speak but it may have been a word from deep mythology as the series dealt with ancient mythological horrors in the deep deep forest. So, there was no way in hell that word was going to come forward for me.

A few cursory google searches for horror series in the possible nations of origin yielded nothing that sparked any memories.

Then, inspiration. While I did not remember the lead actress by name, I think this was the only project of note of her’s that I had seen, I suddenly recalled one of the supporting actors was the lead in the Finnish series Boarder Town. A quick look through his credits yielded the answer I had quested for; Jordskott.

Yup, that’s the series and there is no way in hell that title would have ever come to mind more than seven years after watching season one. (It was a SHUDDER exclusive in 2017.)

Sadly, it is not streaming anywhere.
