An honest review of Wednesday on Netflix.
In the 90s and 00s, we had The Craft and The Crow, but we have not had a young, female gothic character who leads a show for decades. Until now. From her lush, black bangs to her ghostly pallor, Jenna Ortega’s Wednesday Addams is a teen goth queen worthy of her small-screen reign.
As if navigating the many microtraumas of high school wasn’t enough, Wednesday becomes embroiled in an amateur sleuthing operation to reveal the protagonist behind a spate of local killings. Goth Queen Detective? It’s a mouthful, and it makes for some very juicy, entangled plotlines. It also opens up avenues for supporting characters to reveal their own agendas and twisted personalities.
Wednesday Addams has always epitomized the outsider girls who are drawn to unusual or darker aspects of literature, fashion and ideas. And music. Befittingly, there’s an industrial, romantic luster to Danny Elfman’s soundtrack for Wednesday. Elfman also composed for Burton’s Batman, Edward Scissorhands, Big Fish and The Nightmare Before Christmas.
One of the most appealing qualities of goth girls is that they don’t age out of their dark traits, nor end up bleaching their hair and overcoming their social awkwardness to find a Disney-perfect happy ending with a blonde, surfer dude. Wendy Addams, like Doom Gen’s Amy Blue and Nancy Downs, is not just a goth queen for teens, but the alienated outsider, the sensitive and outspoken female who resonates with women in their 20s, 30s and even 40s.
