    Finding it increasingly difficult to stomach The Handmaid's Tale. Becoming just an exercise in forever turning up the shock factor and keep the franchise running.

    So many of these type of shows whether HBO, Netflix or Hulu suffer from the same thing.

    That's too bad on Handmaids Tale. I made it through the first three episodes of season 1 and had to take a break, not because it was bad just a lot to absorb. It's a pretty fucked up story. I might just read the book and skip the Hulu series.

    Having read the book but not seen the series, I’d recommend reading the book.

    The original movie is worth watching too.

    Russian mob/organized crime show based on book by Misha Glenny made by BBC.



    Only one epsiode in but it's excellent.

    Aha! So that's what James Norton's been up to instead of Grantchester season 4, that sly rascal.

    Just added to my list. I’ve read most of his books. Hopefully it is as good as his books.

    Staircase (the new version). It’s kinda like the Making of a Murderer movie. The guy’s wife died at the bottom of a staircase. He says it was a fall, and the state says murder. I’ll stop there so no more spoilers. The film crew works on the film for a long time. It seems like the film was tilting towards supporting him, but eventually you hear from both sides. I have my opinion of him, and it is not favorable but I’ll keep that to myself. It was dragging towards the end, but then there were some very good parts.

    How To Survive Prison. Might be useful for the couple hooligans around here. Plus a nice dose of social commentary. Re-hashes a lot of stuff I have heard already along with some new. And Danny Trejo is always good to watch.

    Advice: DO NOT watch the trailer prior to watching the film. It pretty much spoils one of the major "twists" of the film.
    I, sadly, had watched the trailer. And while I knew the twist, it was still a fun film. Methinks it might be just a tad better if you didn't know the whole scenario going in...

    THE BABYSITTER
    3.5 / 5
    This is an over-the-top action horror film that embraces its supreme ludicrosity with open arms and a big, wide smirk of a smile. It’s a completely fucked-up ode to ‘80s teen dramadies and the goofy, splatter horror films of the ‘90s. On the surface we’re tossed what is essentially a coming-of-age story, but then it’s ladeled with lottsa gore and grue. Sure, all the genre cliched characters are intact, from the smoking hot babysitter, to the air-headed cheerleader, the muscle-bound jock, the wannabe gangsta rapper black dude, the sulky goth girl, the meek-and-mild nerd, the chunky bullies, and the girl-next-door-with-the-douchbag dad. But the tweaked-out scenario and the action sequences are pretty gonzo. Like most of the films it’s paying homage to, the adults (aka parents) are wide brush stroked cliches and are hardly present in the film, lending the whole affair that sun-washed sense of suburban surreality. And it’s got dick jokes, visual references to the likes of 3 O’Clock High, Risky Business, Fasttimes at Ridgemont High, borrows heavily from Corey Haim’s classic Lucas, as well as nods to numerous other films. It also has a breakneck sense of pacing, leaving you little time to think about the puerile happenings unfolding before your eyes. In short, it’s a fun, gleefull horror romp if you can manage to let your brain power down and roll with it.

    RIYL
    Scout’s Guide To The Zombie Apocalypse; Better Watch Out; pretty much any teen oriented coming-of-age film from the ‘80s; pretty much any splatter film from the ‘90s.


    PS
    If you are hardcore, I highly recommend a triple-feature with Scouts Guide To The Zombie Apocalypse and Better Watch Out.
