You – Season 4 (2023)
At the time of this review, I have only seen the first half of You Season 4 (2023). As a disclaimer, this review is for the first five episodes, which arrived last month on Netflix. As many streaming services do these days, this most recent season saw a bifurcated release, with the remaining episodes dropping…
The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window (2022)
The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window (2022) quietly dropped all eight of its episodes on Netflix this Friday, and by Saturday morning I’d binged the whole thing. It’s a show that makes for perfect background noise—I folded laundry, vacuumed, changed my cat’s litter, and did a light…
Scream (2022)
Scream (2022) is a blast. This should come as no surprise to anyone who’s seen the early reviews lauding it as the best franchise entry since the 1996 original, but I’ll admit I had my doubts going in, probably due to a series of weak trailers that failed to capture this film’s freshness and originality.…
Search Party – Season 5 (2022)
I first learned of Search Party (2016) at the start of the pandemic. The first two (incredible, original, witty and wonderful) seasons were available to binge on HBO Max, having originally aired on TBS, and the next three seasons were produced and released over the next year and a half. Having just finished the final,…
Dexter: New Blood (2021)
Dexter: New Blood (2021) kicks off right where the original Dexter ended. Well, eight years later, allowing for some much needed evolution in Dexter Morgan’s character since what is widely regarded as the most disappointing series finale of all time. When we last saw Dexter, he was a lumberjack in upstate New York. He’d killed…
Halloween Kills (2021)
Halloween Kills (2021) is a middle chapter that really, really wants to be a middle chapter. In an era of major franchises and event releases, you can almost forgive the writers and producers for milking as much money as they can out of a reliable IP, but too few interesting things happen to our leads—namely…
Lamb (2021)
Lamb (2021) is the latest horror (or at least horror-adjacent) film from A24, the indie distribution juggernaut behind Ari Aster’s Hereditary and Midsommar, Robert Eggers’ The VVitch and The Lighthouse, and films like The Killing of a Sacred Deer and Climax. I mention these out of a catalogue of over 100 releases since 2013 because…
