The In Between 2022 Movie Review A Boring Forgettable Romance That Has Little Emotional Power

This is basically the plotline of Robert Zemeckis’ 1990 movie Ghost, the box office smash that caused many a moviegoer to break down in tears before taking up pottery classes. It’s also the plotline of The In Between, a new romantic movie on Netflix. Does it deserve a spot on your watchlist? Or should you bury it away forever? Well, that depends. If you love nothing more than an evening in, sat on your sofa with a box of hankies by your side and a weepie on the TV, you might get some pleasure from this....

The Menu 2022 Movie Review A High Concept Of Class With Humor Served On The Side

A high concept of class with humor served on the side Dissing the rich has become a thing in films. This new consciousness among modern filmmakers has been met with great reception. Triangle of Sadness, Parasite, and Glass Onion are some of the most successful instances of recent times. For obvious reasons of numerical superiority, none of these features have done badly. A coincidence is that all of them are great movies and Mark Mylod’s avant garde, darkly humorous, and insanely serious The Menu perhaps tops the list....

The Misfit Of Demon King Academy Episode 4 Recap Review

When One Becomes Two The Misfit Of Demon King Academy returns with a touching episode focusing on Misha and Sasha’s true lineage.

The episode begins with Sasha rushing off with the staff while Anos and Misha discuss what’s going to happen next. Misha was originally Sasha but because Sasha destroyed her Zecht, then that means the two parties can be no more....

The Passage Season 1 Episode 3 Recap Review The Review Geek

There’s No Such Thing As Vampires Last week’s episode took us on a bit of a cat and mouse chase as the authorities continued to hunt Brad and Amy on the road. After their getaway came to a grinding halt during the final few minutes of the episode, we return to The Passage for a much more contained and driven episode. With a rising tension and Fanning’s power beginning to take shape, this vampire drama feels like it’s starting to get into its stride now....

With more background and characterisation delivered through some slick editing and well worked flashbacks, The Passage looks set for a dramatic finish to its first season. We begin with a look at Brad and Lila who find themselves tied up and bundled in the boot of a car en-route to destination unknown....

The Privilege 2022 Netflix Movie Review A Horror Hodgepodge Of Cliches

A horror hodgepodge of cliches The Privilege feels like a whole bunch of horror cliches and tropes thrown together and blended up into a German flick that almost resembles something serviceable. Between exorcisms, cults, malevolent spirits, seances, kooky mediums and hallucinations is a film crying out for a few more rewrites. Unfortunately the result we end up with is an underwhelming run-of-the-mill story with under-cooked characters and a distinct lack of horror....

Episode Guide New Breed of Killer Killing Grounds The Hammer Comes Down In 2003, South Korea was rocked to its core, courtesy of a gruesome and violent serial murderer. Targeting wealthy victims around the city, this murderer bludgeoned his victims with a hammer and staged the scene to make it look like a homicide/robbery. If that wasn’t bad enough, in 2004 he turned his attention to sex workers and went on a big killing spree until his subsequent arrest....

Washed Up Survivors The Stranded gets off to a mediocre start here and with little characterisation, begins by throwing us right into the deep end with the tsunami. From there, we jump forward with little explanation as to how these kids survived, which ultimately ends up as a recurring theme in this series. Despite some nice visuals, The Stranded’s first episode is surprisingly slow paced too, ending with a big cliffhanger to keep you coming back for more....
