If you’re looking for a few thrills this winter, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has your ticket to ride with the release of ‘Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin: The Complete First Season’ on DVD. Simply put, the fourth installment in the Pretty Little Liars Universe is a fresh reimagining of the original series with a plethora of unique twists and turns. While the original series focused on drama and mystery elements, what sets this new incarnation apart from its predecessors is that it masterfully infuses the magic of the golden age of slasher films. Think “Riverdale” meets “I Know What You Did Last Summer.”
Without giving too much away, the plot of this promising first season centers around a group of teenage girls hailing from the sleepy town of Millwood, Pennsylvania. However, their worlds soon get turned upside down when they receive terrifying, cryptic messages from a mysterious assailant named “A.” Unbeknownst to these girls, this homicidal maniac has them in the crosshairs because a tragedy befell a young girl some 20 years before. With their backs against the wall, the girls must join forces to uncover past secrets before the dark secrets of their own are dragged, kicking and screaming, into the light.
While the horror elements of these often blood-soaked episodes provide a welcome dose of nostalgia from days gone by, the exceptional cast is the secret to its success. ‘Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin’ brings a boatload of outstanding young talent to the table, breathing life into diverse characters. The cast includes Bailee Madison (Parental Guidance, Just Go With It) as Imogen Adams, Maia Reficco (Evita, Kally’s Mashup) as Noa Olivar, Chandler Kinney (Zombies 2, Lethal Weapon) as Tabitha ‘Tabby’ Hayworth, Malia Pyles (Baskets, Memoria) as Minnie “Mouse” Honrada, and Zaria (Two Distant Strangers) as Faran Bryant. In addition, the series also stars Mallory Bechtel (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit), Sharon Leal (Supergirl), Elena Goode (The Dictator), Eric Johnson (American Gods), Alex Aiono (Doogie Kamealoha, M.D.), and Lea Salonga (Centaurworld).
