It's the little things that I find amusing, like people smoking aboard a spaceship, a staple of the eighties and nineties science fiction movies. Plus a female android dressed in vinyl because it looks futuristic and not as a dominatrix.
One of the principal themes of Teleios or Beyond the Trek revolves around the definition of what it means to be human. The story seems familiar and yet intriguing, reminiscent of Star Trek. This is not a space opera with huge battleships or aliens but more of a philosophical slow-burner working within the limits of the low budget.
I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords, especially since there's a good vibe about the whole thing. Alien television show creator is producer/writer Noah Hawley who previously worked on Fargo and Legion. So far, so good. I liked Fargo, at least the first season and Legion seems like an okay show.
Tired of movies that all look and feel the same? You want to try something new and different? Check out Reality, a French/Belgian slow-burning comedy that will break your mind. This is a perfect movie if you're having people over and want to blow their minds or engage them in conversation.
The best thing about Donkey Punch is that it's just so damn entertaining. This is a is a thriller with an interesting story, realistic atmosphere and good acting
Gritty, authentic, and very entertaining, Amsterdamned is a Dutch slasher about a hard-boiled detective and serial killer lurking in Amsterdam's canals.
If you're hungry for those old school and bloody slashers of the eighties, The Babysitter will satisfy all your murderous desires. It's delightfully blood-squirting gory, sexy and pacy, with a lot of humor.
The Believers is a slow-burner following an investigation about a series of ritualistic murders of children in New York and a man who got too close to the case.
Parasite is a cheesy low-budget B movie about a scientist trying to find a cure against a deadly parasite while traversing the post-apocalyptic wasteland.
Visceral and gory, Mindwarp is an underrated post-apocalyptic movie that combines this environment with virtual reality and a lot of philosophical motives.
