The documentary depicts the indigenous people of Mexico with sublime reverence, highlighting a generational harmony with the land.

Inspired by a mime show ("Panem en circenses"), the film is a series of comical situations based on the absurd. Burlesque situations experienced by two tramps in a vague location. They don't know each other but have both chosen to spend the night there. The film tells of them approaching each other, at times being charming, at others jeering and being aggressive.

It's good for your film viewing needs, but isn’t going to shake your world. Demonic is trippy sci-fi fun, and that’s about it. And that's pretty cool.

"The Haunting of Hill House" isn't your typical horror story. Based on a novel by Shirley Jackson, Netflix's masterpiece and limited horror series takes you on a emotional rollercoaster ride, by turning our perception of mental illness on its head. It's an unforgettable story about a loveable family, who grapples with tragedy and love after living at the foreboding Hill House.
Ultra-violent storytelling has never been my thing, but the issues with Scarface go beyond that.

The whole venture is frustratingly empty, and left me desiring something more.
