I Hate This Place 1 introduces readers to the most terrifying, monster-laden farmhouse imaginable. Read our full review of the surprising new series here:
Gabby just inherited an expansive rural estate stocked with cattle from her aunt and uncle. If she and her girlfriend Trudy manage to spend a year tending to it, they stand to make a lot of money. The only problems are that a blood-soaked sociopath, ghosts, UFOs, and a woodland cryptid stalk the farm. As the young women drive towards their new home passing cantankerous locals and gorgeous settings, it's easy to recall so many great horror movie introductions from the 1980s.
Given that brief synopsis it's easy to imagine any issue #1 being overwhelmed by the sprawling premise of this"All of the Above" horror comic, but I Hate This Place #1 showcases an elegant script that manages to capture the entirety of its premise while simultaneously landing a number of creepy moments and endearing Gabby and Trudy to readers.
That should not undermine the horror bona fides this comic book possesses. Although this farm seems to attract every type of terror imaginable, each element is introduced with gravitas and interest in these pages.
The sometimes frantic pace of introduction doesn't allow any of the antagonists to take centerstage in this affair, though. That's reserved for the heroes at its heart and Gabby and Trudy are the hook that is bound to keep me on the line waiting for I Hate This Place #2. Like many of Starks' past characters, they find vitality in exaggeration but are more grounded than those found in his comedic works.
Whether it's for the monsters or unlucky couple now surrounded by them, readers will find plenty to love in I Hate This Place #1. In a beautiful splash of the farm in daylight or taut panels utilizing darkness to shape terror, it provides an excellently crafted debut defined by immense ambitions ready to be realized.Colors by Lee Loughridge
