A dysfunctional family moves from the city to a small town after Patricia "Pat" Phelps, a former "wild child" who became famous through writing a raunchy female empowerment novel, is caught cheating on her husband. In an attempt to rebuild their family, they move into a house where terrible atrocities have taken place. Nobody seems to suspect anything odd except for Pat, who is convinced she is either depressed or possessed. But soon, the demons haunting the family's new home begin to appear much more real.

Tara Ariano Cracked "By the end of Cox’s time at Friends, she probably could have played the compulsively tidy Monica in her sleep, so it's a thrill to see her, as the ever-messy Pat, hurtling through nightmares that let her show off more of what she can actually do." Rated: B Oct 19, 2023 Full Review Johnny Loftus Decider Shining Vale has a great cast, a strong lead performance from Courteney Cox, and scares gathering in its corners... Oct 13, 2023 Full Review Whitney Friedlander Paste Magazine The plot’s skeleton may not be the most creative, but, by widening the focus from not just Pat but to her kids, it gives the character (and her viewers) a chance to consider the ramifications her actions, and her genetics, have on her kids.

Catriona M Second season cliff hanger was a must see. Praying a 3rd season gets renewed with Max! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/25 Full Review Kelsey W Just as wonderful as the first season! I love the acting, love the story line and find the show to be an absolute blast! The twists and turns are so fun and the last episode left me with my jaw on the floor. I NEED a season 3! Hilarious, a mystery vibe, mind bending plus the added scare, I love it. One of my top favorite shows. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review Michael C This show is so amazing both seasons and whoever made the decision to cancel it should be fired!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/11/25 Full Review SkyRo P Season two of "The Shining Veil" continues to captivate audiences, with Courteney Cox reprising her lead role. This time, the plot intriguingly hints at the possibility of Satan being the father of a forthcoming child, introducing a heavier focus on satanic rituals and cult elements. Although films of this genre typically fail to engage me or evoke any strong feelings, I must admit that this series is exceptional. Instead of delving deeply into Satanism, it explores cult dynamics, showcasing aspects that are often overlooked or rendered cliché in other productions. This series manages to strike the right balance, presenting a fresh perspective. Courteney Cox delivers a stellar performance, and I'm eagerly anticipating a potential third season. The finale of this season will leave you astonished—it features a twist that caught me completely off guard, and I didn't see it coming at all. The entire cast shines, but I have to admit that I find Gaynor's character quite off-putting. She stands out as the one character I genuinely dislike. Her portrayal is so grating that I cringe whenever she appears on screen. The mother-daughter relationship depicted is painfully dysfunctional, and I often wish for her character to simply vanish. I feel no sympathy for her at all; in fact, I find myself wishing for her to meet a rather dramatic end! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/11/25 Full Review Robert H Caught this on MAX. Binged watched the first two seasons. NEED A 3rd. Love the whole fam. It’s twisted, dark, witty, and a ton of fun. Love the twists and turns. If you don’t like this show, maybe you don’t know what you saw, maybe it was a deer? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/04/25 Full Review Carly F It's such an incredibly funny show. I laugh out loud and get such a kick out of it. I'm usually a wimp with scary stuff but I can handle it, whew. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/04/25 Full Review Read all reviews
