Plots(1)
We all have something to hide! Set on the isolated island of Tasmania, The Kettering Incident is a tense, gripping thriller following one woman's journey to find the truth about her past. Dr. Anna Macy was just a child when her best friend Gillian mysteriously disappeared. The two girls had been playing in ancient woodland on the edge of town when Anna saw strange lights in the sky, accompanied by a high-pitched noise. Hours after, Anna was found alone. Fifteen years later Anna returns to her home town of Kettering to find that the rumours still persist about what really happened to the girls that night - from Anna killing Gillian to alien abduction - so when 17 year old Chloe Holloway also disappears Anna is compelled to discover what really happened to Gillian.

The comparison with Twin Peaks is in my opinion a bit exaggerated, even though The Kettering Incident has its charm. Its best feature is without any doubt its atmosphere, which is pleasantly supernatural and manages to stay like this the entire time. Moreover, Tasmania is quite exotic, connecting nature reminiscent of Scandinavia with a flavor of something unique. The problem, however, lies in the story, because it’s completely overshadowed by the atmosphere. The slender Elizabeth Debicky keeps wandering about like a lost gazelle, sticking her nose into things that don’t concern her. And that’s the whole story. Moreover, the conclusion spoils the series further by making the mysterious premise rather laughable. Such premises are always tricky; we rarely see them done properly.
