DVD Review: Neil Gaiman’s Fantasy Miniseries ‘Neverwhere’ Holds Up Well
Submitted by mattmovieman on November 16, 2011 - 8:20amCHICAGO – Though British author Neil Gaiman’s six-part, three-hour miniseries “Neverwhere” first aired in 1996, it feels like a relic from a much earlier period in television’s past. Before digital technology enabled small-screen dramas to appear visually indiscernible from major film productions, in-camera effects and handcrafted sets were the norm. It’s inspiring to observe just how much can be achieved on a shoestring budget.
