Hometown would have worked better, had it been a series of maybe 8-10 episodes, rather than 12.
I felt this series dragged its heels, getting to the point where things really started to happen. With a similar vibe to Japanese film, The Ring, this series, is eerie but lacks the genuine terror, I'd associate, with its superior, Japanese counterpart.
As I said, its not helped by being overly long, with drop in side characters, who often add little of merit to the story.
Acting by contrast, is excellent and key characters are, very believable.
In short, Hometown is a mixed bag. Eerie but not really overly scary, too long but with a solid enough story, to carry things forward.
