Earlier this week, we had the great pleasure of getting together with prolific young actor Jackson Robert Scott over Zoom! We celebrated the end of an era with Locke & Key, and Jackson shared his favorite key in the series, how he stays so scary in character, and reveals whether or not he cried on … Continue reading Interview: Actor Jackson Robert Scott
FrightFest 2022: Wreck
Setting out to review an episode of television without having seen the full season is nearly the equivalent of watching only a portion of a full movie. Yet, I was compelled to do a full writeup of BBC Three’s new slasher comedy show, Wreck, based purely on how much I loved the pilot episode, titled … Continue reading FrightFest 2022: Wreck
TV Review: Locke & Key – Season 3
Locke & Key has had perhaps one of the more tumultuous journeys to completion in recent memory. Back in 2011, a pilot made for FOX screened at San Diego Comic Con, but was not picked up for series. In 2014, a movie trilogy was announced. In 2016, these plans were scrapped in favor of a … Continue reading TV Review: Locke & Key – Season 3
TV Review: Surface
Apple TV is quickly building up a surprisingly solid library considering the humble beginnings. Shows I haven’t even gotten around to yet, such as The Morning Show or Ted Lasso, carry their own pedigree of excellence. Enter: Surface, a new mystery/drama/thriller featuring a love triangle, a plethora of twists, and more backtracking through memories than … Continue reading TV Review: Surface
TV Review: The Resort
Many a mystery show has emulated the likes of Lost, and Peacock’s new comedy/thriller The Resort appears to be another in a long line of imitators. What initially masquerades as a silly dark comedy soon reveals itself to be so much more. Hiding just underneath the surface is a burgeoning unsolved mystery just begging to … Continue reading TV Review: The Resort
TV Review: Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin
All the way back in 2010, ABC Family (now Freeform) had a hit on their hands. Based on the bestselling book series by Sara Shepard and show-run by I. Marlene King, the original Pretty Little Liars was a mixed bag of minor horror inspiration, pulpy soap-opera dramatics, and a never-ending array of mysteries to be … Continue reading TV Review: Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin
TV Review: Resident Evil
Depending on one’s familiarity with the Resident Evil franchise—which now includes bestselling games across countless systems and nearly a dozen films both animated and live action—the mere announcement of a Netflix series based on the brand could be cause for both celebration and confusion. Where would this newest iteration fit within the framework of the … Continue reading TV Review: Resident Evil
TV Review: Black Bird
To claim the justice system may be flawed is not totally out of the question, and Apple TV+’s new drama, Black Bird, estimates that people slip through the cracks constantly. Back in the 90s, contamination of evidence and false imprisonment ran rampant, even as the FBI and crime-solving was practically in its infancy. How exactly … Continue reading TV Review: Black Bird
TV Review: Flowers in the Attic: The Origin
V.C. Andrews is an absolutely iconic figure in literature whether one loves her or hates her. As such, her body of work pretty much speaks for itself. Ask any given person about their knowledge of Andrews, and I have no doubt in my mind that the majority would name Flowers in the Attic as her … Continue reading TV Review: Flowers in the Attic: The Origin
