Born Again (1978)

The makings of a great midseason filler episode that would connect in many different directions. This is a police drama filler with a guest director.

For one widowed father and his five kids, an extraordinary gift will change their lives forever.

The characters aren’t likable, the story is predictable and the humor is either disgusting, obnoxious, or uncomfortable. The Wrong Missy is a mess of a film and it’s not really worth your time.

Shudder’s Host (not a particularly original title, I must say) attempts to bring the spooks to “the quarantine generation” by presenting us with a scary Zoom call during lockdown.

Written and directed by Eva Victor, who also plays Agnes, the main character, Sorry, Baby is slow and artsy, but extremely effective. It shows how the trauma developed after a sexual assault has a ripple effect and loudly echoes in the victim and her life for years after.

Life may find a way, but is it worth testing its fierceness and how far it will go?
