'The Passage' Season 1 Episode 2 greets you with more gore and horror and an introduction to two villains-in-the-making

Fox's 'The Passage' has been a unique show mingling three most popular genres, and episode 2 finally offers glimpses of the supernatural horror we have been waiting to witness!

*This review contains spoilers*

Fox's new show 'The Passage' based on Justin Cronin's best-selling trilogy of the same name is a wonderful mix of science fiction, supernatural, and the dystopian genre. And true to its essence of horror that the genres call for, without diving into cliches, the second episode of 'The Passage's debut season finally brings in the elements of gore alongside a nuanced backstory unfolding. 

The official synopsis of 'The Passage' describes it as "an epic, character‐driven thriller about a secret government medical facility experimenting with a dangerous virus that could either cure all disease or cause the downfall of the human race. It leads with the story of a 10‐year‐old girl named Amy Bellafonte (Saniyya Sidney), who is chosen to be a test subject for Project NOAH and Brad Wolgast (Gosselaar), the federal agent who becomes her surrogate father as he tries to protect her."
