BuffaloNews: ‘Hannibal’ nightmare assumes diabolical new dimension as TV series by Jeff Simon



Some highlights here, the whole article is here:
:
:
“Hannibal” is as original a take on the modern mythology of Hannibal Lecter as “Elementary” is on the much older mythology of Sherlock Holmes.
:
:
The developer of this exceptional series is Bryan Fuller, the brilliant fellow who once gave us the all-too-shortlived “Wonderfalls.” Unlike, say, “Criminal Minds,” here is a TV series in which everyone’s favorite philosopher/shrink/cannibal/psychopath observes blandly “Killing must feel good to God, too. He does it all the time. Are we not created in his image?”
:
:
“Hannibal” is a deeply sinister TV show. And courtesy of Fuller, quite a brilliant one that gives us weekly Harris’ pivotal creations in a way that Harris himself might not have imagined.
