Flux capacitor

Doctor Who series 13. It has returned. I watched episode 1. It has a Halloween theme. Starting off in Liverpool. You meet Dan, a new companion. He is a trades man and volunteers at the food bank. I wasn't sure about the opening scene with Yaz and The Doctor or with some special effects. There is an alien that resembles a dog. You have a powerful alien that is possibly the season antagonist and I knew that he would escape. The Sontarons and Weeping Angels are back. There is a lot going on. Trying to make sense of it. New music. The Flux is similar to the Antimatter Wave. An apocalypse is taking place. The screen wasn't so clear thanks to the iplayer site.

Bite me

I have just watched Night Teeth. A horror thriller. Benny is a young man at college. He makes music. His brother owns a chauffeur company. In this world the humans and vampires live side by side. There is a truce that has been broken by the power hungry Victor. Blaire and Zoe hire a limo for the night. Benny just happened to work that shift. You may have seen Collateral, From Dusk Till Dawn, Blade, Daywalkers. The actress playing Blaire reminds me of Selena Gomez. Victor is similar to Deacon Frost. Grace and Eva have nice tits. The soundtrack is good. Good acting from all the cast. Currently on Netflix. Jorge Lendeborg Jr. as Benny Perez Debby Ryan as Blaire Lucy Fry as Zoe Alfie Allen as Victor Sydney Sweeney as Eva Raúl Castillo as Jay Perez Alexander Ludwig as Rocko Megan Fox as Grace Bryan Batt as Gio Marlene Forte as Abuela I have watched Vampires Vs The Bronx. A comedy horror. Set in the a neighbourhood. It is being gentrified bit by bit. People are going missing. Vampires are moving in. Some idiot rightwingers will take offence to the film as they are a bunch of snowflakes. Some stereotypes being used. A few annoying characters. You have Miguel the protagonist with his two best friends. Organising a party to help save the Bodega. You have some familiar faces like Chris Redd, Method Man, Mero. I thought Sarah Gadon was Caitlin Reilly. Other cast are Coco Jones, Gregory Diaz IV, Jordan Michael, Gerald Jones III who reminds me of Tyler The Creator, Shea Whigham, Vladimir Caamano. The soundtrack is decent. You might have seen Night Teeth, Blade, Attack The Block.

I have just watched British horror film In The Earth. Would have been made during the Covid19 pandemic. During lockdown. A scientist named Martin has arrived at a camp during the pandemic. He has a job to do and wants to speak to an old colleague of his. His tour guide Alma goes with him. You have Zach that is living in the forest. Also a scientist named Olivia that is running an experiment. You could tell which characters could not be trusted. This is a weird film. There are plenty of strobing effects. It looks like something Danny Boyle could have made. The soundtrack isn't bad. Great performance from the actors especially Reece Sheersmith. Nice special effects. That can get a bit much. This is an indie film. Written by Ben Wheatley. I may need to look at reviews and discussions. You might have seen Midsommar, Sunshine, Blair Witch Project, Evil Dead, Misery, The Forest, Annihilation.

I have watched Midsommar written and directed by Ari Aster. Starring Florence Pugh. A slow paced horror movie. One of those psychological cult films. There isn't much of a soundtrack. Quite a bit of silence during dialogue scenes. You have the odd chants, folk singing and people making weird noises. Good cast of actors. The extras had to put in some work. A lot of the time standing around and other scenes just doing some weird shit. It is a little fucked up. Some scenes I just skipped a few seconds as it felt repetitive. Some good tits on show in one scene. Interesting to see where this was filmed. Making use of the local Swedish actors. I didn't quite like the protagonist Dani as she seems controlling. A family tragedy happened at the beginning. Her boyfriend Christian is always there to support her. He had a university project to do. He is joined by friends Mark and Josh. Mark is a no nonsense kind of guy. Josh is knowledgeable. Pelle is laid back. He invited the group to his home where a festival is being held. Things eventually take a dark turn. You might like the special effects, cinematography, soundtrack, audio. Some of it is quite subtle. The sex scene was just a bit much. Also a moment where Mark was taking a piss I don't think he had got to finish or washed his hands. When the villagers would chant or scream, moan in unison you would think that they were a hive mind. A lot of the actors can sing. The dance choreography took some time. It works though. You do kind of guess what might happen to certain characters. Why choose some over the others? I do distinctly hear screaming in the background but it isn't addressed. I was quite sleepy when I started watching and I would have nodded off. I continued it the next day. I think some gave it a negative review because of the pace and how strange it was. I believe that posters and other images in the early part were the foreshadowing. I tend to look at discussions and the trivia for the film. If you like this then I also recommend In The Earth, The Wicker Man, The Wicker Tree, Hereditary, Lost, The Sacrament, The Endless, Stepford Wives, The Burbs, Arlington Road. Florence Pugh, Jack Reynor, Vilhelm Blomgren, William Jackson Harper, Will Poulter, Ellora Torchia, Archie Madekwe, Henrik Norlén, Gunnel Fred. 

I watched Love And Monsters on Netflix. A scifi comedy adventure. Starring Dylan O'Brien. A meteor was headed to Earth. All the governments would do is fire missiles at it. The nuclear fallout created mutations. The small insects and other creatures grew to big sizes. 95% of the population is wiped out. Post apocalypse. Joel is a young man living in an underground colony. He is the protagonist and narrates the story. His girlfriend from before the fallout is Amy. She lives 85 miles away. He decided that if it were to be his last days on Earth then he would rather spend them with her. So he heads off on a journey. I quite like the Mav1s robot. There is a dog named Boy. Other survivors meet him along the way. I have included other films that you might like. Nice soundtrack. Jessica Henwick, Dan Ewing, Michael Rooker and Ariana Greenblatt also star. Worth a look.

I watched Bird Box on Netflix. When I originally had stumbled upon the meaning of the film or what the creatures represented it put me off as it was a spoiler. I eventually watched it. All throughout the world a supernatural force is infecting people. They usually commit suicide but there are others that behave as if they are part of a cult. That I need to work out. Based on a novel. The soundtrack is good. I liked the opening track in the first scene. You have Malorie that is an artist. She is pregnant. Her sister Jessica has come to take her to the hospital. I was reminded of The Happening, Cell, A Quiet Place. You look at two different times. One is when the apocalypse began and another is five years later. Meet a variety of characters. Interesting to see where this force came from. I would liked to have seen more of Jessica. Seeing Malorie getting injured you'd think she would have miscarried. Surprised to see Machine Gun Kelly. Rosa Salazar has a nice body what you see from a sex scene. There are so many cast members that you will recognise. Great acting and special effects. A scifi horror worth watching. Sandra Bullock as Malorie Hayes Trevante Rhodes as Tom Jacki Weaver as Cheryl John Malkovich as Douglas Sarah Paulson as Jessica Hayes Rosa Salazar as Lucy Danielle Macdonald as Olympia Lil Rel Howery as Charlie Tom Hollander as Gary Machine Gun Kelly[3] as Felix BD Wong as Greg Pruitt Taylor Vince as Rick Vivien Lyra Blair as Girl / Olympia Julian Edwards as Boy / Tom Parminder Nagra as Dr. Lapham Rebecca Pidgeon as Lydia Amy Gumenick as Samantha Taylor Handley as Jason Happy Anderson as River Man David Dastmalchian as Whistling Marauder

Radio waves

I rewatched scifi drama Frequency. Cast: Andre Braugher, Daniel Henson, Dennis Quaid, Elizabeth Mitchell, Jack McCormack, Jim Caviezel, Jordan Bridges, Marin Hinkle, Melissa Errico, Michael Cera, Noah Emmerich, Peter MacNeill, Richard Sali, Shawn Doyle, Stephen Joffe. Released by New Line in 2000. Time travel theme. Set in 1969 and 1999. John Sullivan is a cop, recently separated. Sees his mother now and then. He lives in his childhood home. Meanwhile in the past is his firefighter father Frank. They use one of those radios to communicate. History is altered along the way. I liked the concept of characters being able to connect over different time zones. You might also like The Lake House and The Call. Emotional that John gets to speak to his deceased dad. This would definitely do something to the audience. Nice soundtrack. The natural phenomenon that occurs is briefly spoken about on the TV. I am interested in the back story. Great film. Worth checking out. Cast Keanu Reeves Alex Wyler Sandra Bullock Kate Forster Christopher Plummer Simon Wyler Ebon Moss-Bachrach Henry Wyler Willeke van Ammelrooy Kate's Mother (as Willeke Van Ammelrooy) Dylan Walsh Morgan Shohreh Aghdashloo Anna Lynn Collins Mona I watched The Lake House which I saw years ago. Probably blogged about it. A scifi romance. Réunion between Keanu and Sandra since they starred in Speed. Nice soundtrack. I liked the time travel concept. Set in Chicago. You have Kate, a Doctor that has just moved out of this lake house. 2006. Meanwhile in 2004 you have Alex the architect. Just moving into the lake house. There is this dog named Jack. Alex's family are architects. You get to see Kate's mother and colleagues. Good cast of actors including the supporting ones. Christopher Plummer is superb as always. There is that letterbox which the protagonist would place a letter in and that's how they communicate. I like that some scenes their speech is intercut. Some scenes they are talking and in the same room. I believe that they are still writing to each other and it is interesting to show it like this. There are events that place over two years and you wonder if if was predetermined. I liked their walk through Chicago. It is romantic. Sandra looks beautiful. One actor was in Grimm. I wondered about the toilet and plumbing in the house. You might also like Premonition, Frequency, The Call, Somewhere In Time. This film is based on Il Mare. There is the Jane Austin book that is relevant. I will look at theories, discussions and back stories. I recommend that you see this. Time can be rewritten. Spoilers in this review.   

Chicken and chocolate

I watched Venom Let There Be Carnage. The sequel to the Marvel/Sony film. Tom Hardy, Michelle Williams, Woody Harrelson, Naomie Harris, Stephen Graham, Peggy Lu, Reid Scott. Tom Hardy is a Producer, Andy Serkis the Director. I liked the first film and wanted to see this one. A year later and Eddie Brock is trying to live a normal life. The police are still trying to get to the bottom of the events that took place in the first film. Cletus Kasady is a serial killer on death row. He requested meetings with Eddie and wanted him to tell his story. His girlfriend Frances is a mutant. She is locked away in a prison for gifted individuals. Unfortunately events don't go to plan. Carnage is on the loose causing, well carnage. Venom must stop him. Great cast of actors. Good special effects. I wanted to see them battle. I also want to see Venom in the MCU. You might like the soundtrack. There is one post credits scene. I may have read a comic featuring these characters. I played the original PlayStation game and the characters were tricky to fight. At cinemas now. I rewatched Venom, the first film. Cast: Chris O'Hara, Jenny Slate, Kurt Yue, Malcolm C. Murray, Melora Walters, Michelle Lee, Michelle Williams, Peggy Lu, Reid Scott, Riz Ahmed, Scott Haze, Sope Aluko, Tom Hardy, Wayne Pére, Woody Harrelson The beginning, the Life Foundation has a team sent to space. They are bringing back Symbiotes. Unfortunately things don't go to plan. The Venom Symbiote has been heading towards San Francisco. You also have Riot the team leader on his way to the labs. Carlton Drake is a CEO. He wants these creatures to work with the human race. Eddie Brock is an investigative journalist. He is intent on bringing Drake down. His girlfriend Anna has split up. You have Dr Dan and Mrs Chen. Good soundtrack.

Izombie

I watched the pilot episode of iZombie. From DC/ Vertigo. On Netflix. A horror drama. It did remind me of Pushing Daisies, Gilmore Girls and Nancy Drew. The leading actress reminded me of Amy Adams. Her sister is hot. A young doctor had gone to party and there was a zombie outbreak. Well a minor one. She was infected. Now one of the undead. She works in a morgue. Eating the victim's brains helps her have a psychic connection. I wasn't sure if I would watch the entire episode or even the series. It might appeal to a female audience. You may have seen Zombieland, Warm Bodies, Life After Beth. Interesting soundtrack. Comic book cut scenes. Her boss is British. There is black detective that need her help. Originally on the CW. There are references to the work Boyle and Romero. 5 seasons. You should see Ash Vs Walking Dead. Starring: Rose McIver; Malcolm Goodwin; Rahul Kohli; Robert Buckley; David Anders; Aly Michalka; Robert Knepper; Bryce Hodgson.

I have watched Free Guy. I was reluctant to see it in the cinema. Not a big fan of Ryan Reynolds but he has done a few good films. The protagonist is an NPC in a video game called Free City. One day he discovers that there is more to life than being a background character. Good special effects. Great acting. Nice soundtrack. Don't like Mariah Carey's music. I did see her at Stapleford Park in 2011. Anyway there you have Millie aka Molotov Girl. A programmer that had filed a lawsuit against the company behind the game. She is trying to gather evidence. Her ex partner Keys works in the complaints department. Guy has a best friend Buddy who is a security guard. Interesting story. Antoine is the Ceo and villain in this story. You may have seen Ready Player One, The Matrix, Tron, Wreck It Ralph. There are references and cameos. I may have been put off by the reviews. I saw this on Disney Plus. Ryan Reynolds, Jodie Comer, Taika Waititi, Joe Keery, Lil Rel Howery.

I watched Guns Akimbo. Starring Daniel Radcliffe and Samara Weaving. Set in the US. A guy named Miles works for a video-game company. He has his ex girlfriend Nova that he may speak to occasionally. His boss is a bully. He is often at home. Plays games and sometimes trolls people on the Internet. He messed with the wrong people. Meanwhile you have a lady named Nix, looks a bit rough. Psychotic, popular and deadly. She has been enrolled in a game called Skizm. People are watching it on their computers. The villain Riktor is in charge. Miles is in the game now and must go after Nix. She is hunting Miles. With the amount of times he is shot at he should not survive. There are graphic scenes. Good special effects, acting and soundtrack. There is humour. You might also like Free Guy, Death Race, The Running Man, Ready Or Not, The Purge, The Hunt, The Hunger Games and Boss Level. 

Don't hang up

I have just watched The Call. A Korean scifi horror. Great acting from the cast. The two leading ladies really stand out. Superb special effects. The soundtrack is good. Plenty of twists. You have the regular time travel films, the time loop ones then ones like this where two inviduals separated by time communicate with each other. These Korean films have always been good. The first that I ever saw was Oldboy. Director: Lee Chung-hyeon Starring: Park Shin-hye; Jeon Jong-seo Music by: Dalpalan Park Shin-hye as Kim Seo-yeon[2] Jeon Jong-seo as Oh Young-sook[3] Kim Sung-ryung as Eun-ae, Seo-yeon's mother. Lee El as Ja-ok, Young-sook's mother Oh Jung-se as Seong-ho Lee Dong-hwi as Baek Mi-hyun Park Ho-san as Mr. Kim (Seo-yeon's father) You have Seo-Yeon living her life in a small town in 2020. She receives a call on a cordless phone. From a young woman named Young-Sook in 1999. Young lives with her abusive stepmother. Seo lives with mother. They both inhabit the same house but in different decades. As they have more conversations. Subtle things along the time line change. I find the concept interesting. Frequency and The Lake House are other films that I recommend. Dark and clever film. I will look at theories and discussions. I may take a look at Parasite. I saw this on Netflix. Highly recommended.

I have started to watch Squid Game. A Korean horror series. It had been getting rave reviews. I enjoyed watching Saw, Circle, Exam, Escape Room, The Task, Takeshi's Castle, Wipeout. So I would eventually see this. The soundtrack is good. A secret organisation has organised a series of games. People who are in debt have entered to play. It is a matter of life and death. The winner would receive a large cash sum. Great acting from the cast and extras. The props and costume department have done well. There is swearing and violence. The games are based on kids games. I was trying to understand the instructions in the opening credits scene. I see why they had that main theme tune. It is a little tongue in cheek. The protagonist or one of the main characters is a man living with his mother. He should treat his mother with more respect. He sees his daughter on her birthday. Some might call him a deadbeat dad. You do dislike him at first. I felt sorry for him. Quite like the businessman that approached him at the station. You have memes and parodies of the show. People will dress as the characters for Halloween. On Netflix. There is talk of a second series. You have an ominous looking leader that watches as the games are played. There is humour. I watch it with original dialogue with English subtitles. I noticed the Indian guy there. Worth taking a look.

Train To Busan is a Korean horror movie. A businessman is always working. He has split from his wife. There is shared custody of their young daughter. As her birthday approaches. They go on a trip to see the mother. Meanwhile a zombie outbreak is happening. Interesting to have it set on a train. Good acting from all cast and extras. There is some annoying things eg the daughter wandering off, people not getting a move on, a questionable decision to open a door. A variety of characters. Personalities clash. The actor that is the protagonist was recently in Squid Game. You might have seen 28 Days Later, La Horde, Dawn Of The Dead, Zombieland, I Am Legend. Nice soundtrack.

I am currently watching Hellbound. A Korean horror drama TV series. It is quite dark and sinister. First of all you have a detective and his daughter. He is busy investigating the recent attacks that have taken place. The mother was murdered a few years ago. The police chief is understanding yet strict. There is a church or a cult called The New Truth Society. You could compare them to Westboro Baptist Church. They are wanting people to live a life free of sin. Those that do wrong will be exposed and punished. Their leader is charismatic, young, handsome. He is in the limelight. The actor playing him does a fantastic job. That also goes for every cast member. The Arrowhead are an evil bunch of thugs. They are associated with the church. Brutal scenes. I like the attorney, she is attractive, does the best that she can. Not everything is black and white. There is this streamer in multicolour and is somewhat annoying. He is broadcasting what went on regarding the church and doxxes people. The trailer that was shown is the first scene. An angelic figure appears to an individual telling them of when they will die. Once that day arrives these Hulk like demons appear and unleash hell on the victim. Finally taking their soul to Hell. There are many believers but also some sceptics. You do get reveals early on in the series. If you liked Squid Game, Death Note, Final Destination, Constantine, Saw then this is for you. Interested to see what the reaction channels make of it. Maybe the cgi could do with some work. Some actors may be familiar to you. I recommend Old Boy, The Call. Yoo Ah-in as Jeong Jin-soo, a cult leader, the head of the emerging religion 'New Truth Society' Park Sang-hoon as young Jeong Jin-soo Kim Hyun-joo as Min Hye-jin, an attorney Park Jeong-min as Bae Young-jae, Broadcasting Station PD Won Jin-ah as Song So-hyun, Bae Young-jae's wife Yang Ik-june as Jin Kyeong-hoon, detective Kim Do-yoon Kim Shin-rok as Park Jeong-ja Ryu Kyung-soo as Yoo Ji, priest of the cult Lee Re as Jin Hee-jeong, Jin Kyeong-hoon's daughter Im Hyeong-guk as Gong Hyeong-joon, sociology professor
