Ash vs Evil Dead: Judgement Day (2018)
Penultimate Series Episode Is A Hoot!
I am so sad to see this series ending so abruptly. But it is ending on a great note! Ash VS Evil Dead is ending it's run with what has been another solid season. Can't wait for the finale next weekend!
Into the Badlands: Chapter XVII: Enter the Phoenix (2018)
Season 3 premiere episode is a fun ride!
This is a show I'm never really waiting for to come back year round. However every time I go back to this series I am reminded of what a fun show it is. This premiere episode to the third season is no different. The opening contains a very well choreographed fight scene and towards the end of the episode as well. We are introduced to what seem to be new interesting characters while setting up a few storylines for this season. I am excited to see where this third season will take us.
Killing Eve: Don't I Know You? (2018)
Wow..the music, the directing...
The tension just keeps building, episode after episode. I am glad I decided to give this show a chance. It's definitely an engaging watch! The ending during the club scene was directed quite beautifully!
The Mist: The Tenth Meal (2017)
A Complete Trainwreck (Review for Season 1)
This was one of three episodes in the entire season that did not completely bore me to death. This show if I remember correctly was first being advertised as a limited series. That's why I bothered watching it, since I didn't feel like I would be obligated to have to add a new series to my list for years to come. I don't know if this will get a renewal, I hope not. But either way I am done with this terrible series. I won't even begin to comment on how they butchered Stephen King's version of this.
This series makes us, the audience endure some of the worst acting I have ever seen on television or film. It is so wooden and unrealistic I actually groaned at it. I never do that. The finale was one of their better episodes but by better I don't mean it was good in any way. The rest were just so terrible that I felt a sense of relief that I wasn't in agonizing pain with the finale. Yet it still managed to aggravate me. They left so much unfinished plot stories undone. You can tell the producers are hoping they'll get a second season. But since I won't be bothering with it again, I was hoping at least what was happening with these certain stories would get resolved. I honestly don't know if they'll even get a second season, given the terrible reviews and ratings it's received.
The other thing was the writing. It was absolute rubbish. That is probably another reason the performances were so terrible, the dialogue was painful to bear. The only actor in this that did a fine job was Frances Conroy, she's a great artist so I'm not surprised there but she did an OK job given the horrible script she was working with. The writing was very predictable, even the whole incest scenario seemed forced and just stupid. Alex the girl who was supposedly raped by her love interest Jay. Ends up being his half-sister. Of course she was raped by Adrian her best friend who had some terrible mental health problems. However when the mom revealed that her real father is the sheriff, it just doesn't feel authentic or real. To be honest by this point I stopped caring for these characters.
I usually don't whinge too much about films or TV. I try to be optimistic and get some good out of the stuff I don't particularly enjoy. But this was flat out a horrible snooze. With terrible acting, writing and cgi. Nothing worked here. If I can persuade someone to not waste their time with this. Then I feel like I did some good. Since I honestly feel I gave up ten hours of my life.
Finale-4/10 Season 1- 2.5/10
