Wayward Really Is Worth All The Hype
It’s been five months since Wayward premiered on Netflix and it still has some of us in a choke-hold.

Unaired special of “Himouto! Umaru-chan” included with the manga’s tenth compiled volume. Realizing it is Taihei's birthday, Umaru asks Nana for advice on what to do for him. Umaru decides to act like an ideal sister and spend time with Taihei, only to discover that he prefers her the way she is. Later, as the girls begin their summer vacation by going to a swimming pool, Umaru wonders if she should stop putting on an act in front of her friends and reveal that she, Komaru, and UMR are the same person. As Umaru becomes conflicted over what will happen if she tells everyone, her friends assure her that she doesn't need to reveal her secrets if it'd just make her suffer. Relieved by the support of her friends, Umaru makes the decision to continue hiding her secret.

While the film didn’t hit me as emotionally as I wanted it to, I still enjoyed it. I simply wish there was a little more, particularly with the world building.
Deborah (Jean Smart) and Ava (Hannah Einbinder) are a delight to watch evolve, sometimes devolve, then evolve again.
Dramatic Horror!!! Wait, what?? Did you say "dramatic horror"?? IS there such a thing?? I mean, TRULY. Well, if San Francisco-based, Pakistani-born independent filmmaker Dr. Hassan Zee and this film critic have anything to say about it, there IS such a beast as experienced through the director's newest feature film set to officially debut October 4th in the City by the Bay. Folks, indie film will always be a bastion of experimentation and originality, and this film for me fits that bill.
A chilling return to the Final Destination franchise with a terrifying twist on fate. Bloodlines explores whether Death can hold a grudge across generations—and what happens when the past won't stay buried.
I hate the idea that animation’s for kids; just because it’s animated doesn’t mean that it’s some silly cartoon and shouldn’t be taken seriously.
