Defiance Season 1 Episode 3 – Down In The Ground Where The Dead Men Go – Review (Spoiler Alert)

Defiance Season 1 Episode 3 – Down In The Ground Where The Dead Men Go – Review (Spoiler Alert)

Has with episode one and two (the pilot), we are still discovering a little bit about the characters and the reasons why they do what they do. In this third episode of Defiance we found out that there is a conspiracy that might involve destroying the city. Graham Greene’s character Rafe McCawly finds out that his eldest

son, whom was murdered in the last episode, was involved in the conspiracy, like Ben the Mayor’s aide, who is brought back to life by an unknown party, only to find himself killed again, when he tries to blow up the nuclear power plant in old Saint Louis. Irisa finds herself getting pulled in to the world of this small town, when she interrupts and frees a Castithan from an ancient ritual, and much more.

All and all Defiance is building itself to be a very cool show with a very good cast and excellent CGI (for TV) and very well done makeup fx.

On another note that Castithans bath scene, which appeared so far in all the episodes, is a total rip off the TV show Spartacus and both shows have actress Jaime Murray in it. I don’t recall her ever doing something like that on Warehouse 13 but well…

Official Synopsis

“In the year 2046, it’s a new Earth – with new rules. Over thirty years after various alien races arrived on Earth, the landscape is completely altered, terraformed nearly beyond recognition. To the

town of Defiance, on what used to be St. Louis, comes the mysterious Nolan (Grant Bowler) and his charge, Irisa (Stephanie Leonidas). As they settle into town – overseen by the mayor, Amanda Rosewater (Julie Benz) and filled with residents like the powerful Rafe McCawley (Graham Greene), enterprising lounge owner Kenya (Mia Kirshner) and the ambitious, alien Tarrs (Tony Curran and Jaime Murray) - events begin to unfold that threaten the fragile peace this border town has fought for.”
