Black Summer (2019)
Underrated camerawork and overall series
Amazing choreography in sometimes quite long uncut scenes which really adds to all the chaos going on. Some plotholes but still very entertaining to watch. The school episode was indeed a bit off but apart from that I really loved it as a true zombie fan.
Van Helsing (2016)
First episodes are typically SYFY bad, but it gets better.
Even though I didn't really like the first episode(s) I decided to give it the benefit of the doubt. Of course it's not a top rated series but for SYFY standards it actually gets pretty interesting as soon as the character roles start evolving. I wrote this since the last couple of episodes really got my attention.
If you don't like series in apocalyptic settings, skip this. If you keep in mind that the budget for this was A LOT less than for the top rated series.. you might actually appreciate it.
Final judgment: The acting gets better The whole 'feral vampire' thing is kind of overdone. I think more people are annoying by the stupidity (and constant growling) of the vampires. The story line gets interesting so curiosity about what will happen next will make up it.
If you already finished the better series out there and like the setting of this story, it's worth watching.
