Bougie Black Brother

Helstrom (Hulu)

This was suppose to be one of those Marvel characters made for TV that would warrant a series.  Not what we thought.  Especially the last few episodes.

Daimon and Ana Helstrom are the son and daughter of a mysterious and powerful serial killer; the siblings have a complicated dynamic as they track down the terrorizing worst of humanity.

 

Black Box (amazon video)

As a fan of Blumhouse films, I saw that Amazon was going to release a set of horror/Drama movie for their prime subscription.  One of these happened to be a black cast movie that had a very interesting concept with identity or your soul 

After losing his wife and memory in a car accident, a single father undergoes an agonizing experimental treatment that causes him to question who he really is

Peninsula (Korean)

So after we saw Train from Busan, we thought the sequel would be just as exciting. So we heard that the sequel would be out this year called Peninsula. This story line is this.

A soldier and his team battle hordes of post-apocalyptic zombies in the wastelands of the Korean Peninsula. Not exactly, but that’s the gist.

Tenet - Back to the movies

Being a huge Christopher Nolan Fan I was not going to let the Corona Virus stop me from seeing his new movie spectacular with his Black lead star.  This mind bending action thriller puts you back into the "inception" mind set of where things are going.  Not really sure where this one is going but we went to the movies just to see it

Dark (Netflix) subtitled (season 3)

So, Dark is a well written Sci Fi phenomenon. Even in German the complexities and time travel concepts are top notch. We pick up after the Apocalypse occurs in their small town in Germany. And a whole new sequence of events start out to uncover the true meaning behind the multidimensional love story between the two characters.

Killing Eve - Season 3

This time Alicia and I amp dead into season 3, yes we saw season 2. We enjoyed it to the extent that we had to wait until the whole 8 episode was over so we could binge watch the whole thing. This was a different presentation than the other two but worth watching as a fan

 

Trapped - Netflix (Iceland)

This crime drama follows members of a police department as they try to uncover a mystery against the elements. In a fjord near a small Icelandic town, a ferry arrives from Denmark with 300 passengers -- but only their journey stops here. A storm overhead and a treacherous blizzard prevent the ferry and the townspeople from leaving the remote area. When a dismembered, mutilated body washes up onshore, the local police realize a murder has taken place just hours earlier. Everybody trapped in the vicinity immediately becomes potential suspects and chaos descends as they try to find the killer

Defending Jacob

Apple TV + has a few shows on their channel that seems pretty interesting that we took the time to check out when it came up.  This month it was Captain America (Chris Evans) playing a lawyer who's son is a suspect for killing another child.  The drama in which we go through pulls you back and forward of did he do it or didn't he.  8 episodes and an open ended conclusion of did his son really do it.  This also was based on a book that was written in 2012 by a lawyer and writer.

Ozark Season 3 (Netflix)

So Alicia and I finally get around to watching the 3rd season of Ozark on Netflix. What a very creative writing crew to continue to make this show fresh and some what unique to continue to watch. a cross between breaking bad and Justified. Really an entertaining show.

The Plagues of Breslau (Netflix)

Another Netflix foreign film, and this one is from Poland.  Not many movies or shows I've seen come out of Poland but this one seemed like something worth while seeing.  This is the summary.  After a body is found sewn inside of a cow hide.  A local detective discovers a killer is recreating an 18th century "plague" of criminal punishments on a bunch of bad people.  Now, does this sound like something we have seen before?
