    ‘Outcast’ Preview: ‘Come for the Finger Eating and Stay for the Characters’

    How does Outcast stand out from the crowd of stories about possession? Having the same creator as The Walking Dead, Robert Kirkman, is a good start. Casting Patrick Fugit — a limelight-avoiding darling of indie cinema — is another smart move.

    ‘Outcast’: ‘Demons, Exorcists, and All That’

    On the basis of The Walking Dead and now the new Cinemax series Outcast, premiering on Friday night, I’d have to say that Robert Kirkman likes his horror with a brooding, moody edge. In Outcast, Fugit’s Kyle immediately establishes himself as a haunted fellow with a dark past, alienated from his family and perhaps possessed—whether it’s with special powers, or possession by something evil or good, are questions that hover over the initial hours of the series.
