Garnet Psaltery Posted September 28, 2021 Author Share Posted September 28, 2021 (edited) I just finished watching this horror-genre show in 7 episodes. It has many points of interest for the religious, particularly someone raised Catholic, although the show is ambivalent regarding faith in general, and may upset some. I liked the slow pace, the absorbing dialogue, the scenery and detail of a windswept northern island, the sound of seagulls, and the range of characters, and I very much enjoyed the singing. There's little I disliked, but I shook my head at a late monologue by a major female character regarding what happens after death as it sounded hollow and arrogant to me, but then it's not my viewpoint. There is a spoiler below the video link. [spoiler space] . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I never thought the 'monster' was an angel. That was given away from his first appearance when it was said he was afraid of the light. No angel can be afraid of the light. Edited September 28, 2021 by Garnet Psaltery Added more spoiler space. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korea's been on a roll, with Sweet Home and Kingdom are all worth watching. It had that Battle Royal feel to it for me.. I was really glued to it.

Pixie Kobichenko Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 I finally got to see The Forever Purge today. I sat there chuckling that the studio went thru a lot of trouble to get a Josh Lucas lookalike. It was Josh Lucas 😑 Tonight I’m on YT watching random Ghostbusters things, like people who own replica Ecto-1s & put them in parades or just drive around NYC- how fun would that be to see?!? My favorite is a clip about how they made Slimer. He’s adorable. I peek at entertainment news every morning hoping to not see that the newest movie has been pushed back- again. 👻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garnet Psaltery Posted October 1, 2021 Author Share Posted October 1, 2021 I've just seen the fifth episode in the short season of 'Katla'. This is literal nordic noir, as everything's covered in volcanic ash. I wish I could play you the closing music of episode 5 as it's beautiful, but I've yet to see it available.

Mr Amore Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Succession is finally returning this month. For whoever hasn't watched it, feel ashamed, then watch seasons 1 and 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robotshaz Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I was watching that show Good Girls on Netflix just earlier on and then once I have finished watching that I'll be watching that Squid game after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garnet Psaltery Posted October 6, 2021 Author Share Posted October 6, 2021 I've just watched the first episode on Netflix. Fifteen minutes in I wasn't sure I'd continue as it's fairly ugly, but having reached the end of the episode I've warmed to the lead character and a couple of others. The story might prove unoriginal, but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Mistwood Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I just finished the all the available seasons of Manifest. It was okay. Now on season 5 of The Expanse. The special effects are amazing, the science is sound, the politics are relatable. I really like this one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was all in on the worm hole and aliens theory in the beginning. Then later it was all faith and then Noah's ark and the composition of sapphire... I also really didn't like the character of the young lady that moved in with the main family. I know they are making one more season to wrap up the story. I will probably watch it, but only for a bit of closure 😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came close to not even watching the last few episodes of the 3rd season and I honestly cannt imagine another 20 episodes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
