Are these things true? I don't really know much about this series.

Without spoiling much, expect this to be anything but your average Magical Girl show. And people will agree that episode 3 is where the show takes a more darker tone and that's only the beginning of what's to come.

Should I check it out? Also, is there a new season coming since it was so popular, or does the last episode make a pretty concrete conclusion?

You'll have to find that answer yourself. I personally think the ending is quite good and satisfying, but you do need to pay close attention to what is said if you want to fully understand what's going on, given that it got quite a bit of (IMO, unfair) criticism.
Watching the show more than once is probably a good idea – assuming you'll like it, of course.
Currently, three movies have been announced: Two movies will recap the show, the other one will be an entirely new story (which is most likely going to be a sequel). The first two movies have been slated for October 2012, the other hasn't gotten an official date yet.
