Well the pilot went fine ,,, the rating was a bit high for what i really watched . it reminds me of this 2010 NBC cancelled series "persons unknown" like there's this old weird town where you're being watched and you can't get out.
The intro to the show was easy and understandable,, yes i had some difficulties trying to get exactly how did he get in that town and why in the first place ,, but overall the pilot gave everything we need to know.
Honestly, The stroyline was a bit shaky and not that wowzer and catchy but i believe in the next episodes more organized freaky facts will appear on the script and i think it'll make the show more appealing.
As for the cast, i kinda wished the lead was someone other than Matt Dillon ,, i mean he's good for a movies guy, but seemed a bit rigid on TV ,, while bringing Carla Gugino, Terrence Howard and Juliette Lewis was a nice touch and they'll have more effective role on the show.
so i think overall the pilot went okay,, i'll say 7/10 even it'll seem high but i'm rooting for the show for now and i think it'll elevate to the expected level.

So, just watched the 2nd episode and the plot seems to grow quickly , events starts to get a bit more intriguing still not a Top,, but as i'v heard it's gonna be a 10 episodes Mini-series , so i think i'll keep on watching to know what's gonna happen next ;)
--- In Episode 5 things are getting so much clearer and they hit you with an amazingly new plot
