The American movie Like.Share.Follow. is about the currently topical subject of stalking and the dangers of modern communication technologies and social networks. However, the way it presents this interesting theme is so incredibly tedious that you feel like giving up on it early on. Also, the main male protagonist is too glamorous, and they gloss over everything so it is a bit too nice, and this just does not suit the subject matter at all because there is none of the ugliness you would get in real life. That is just not how I imagined a movie on the subject.

The British movie Zomblies may have a short running time of forty-five minutes. However, it is still quite engaging despite that. The execution and the production of this movie are not that great, and the actors are not great either, but that does not change the fact that Zomblies can still pull the viewer in. The narrative is pretty straightforward and works for this low-budget zombie movie, which is not what I expected.

The message of the Japanese movie Black Cat will not surprise an experienced moviegoer because the first scene gives it away, but it does not matter because the important thing is the journey, not the end. In addition, the execution is something that left me spellbound. Black Cat is a great and unique horror movie in my opinion.

The American movie Agramon's Gate is a classic example of contemporary horror movie making, which is usually rather below average. However, this movie is actually not that bad because some scenes are enjoyable. However, by the end, the movie resembles a teenage urban fantasy, and no longer reflects its aspiration to be a horror movie.

The second season of the French supernatural television series Mortel is what you would predict, a show where its universe grows. It stands to reason that there are no guys in spandex, just some regular guys gifted with unique powers by a god. I am enjoying it so far, even though I admit that Mortel is not something I would want to revisit.

The American science fiction-horror thriller television series The Mist tries to repeat the movie's success. However, although King's version was good, this television series was made by more incompetent producers, so I could not relate to the underdeveloped characters. Even though the show's producers may have had great aspirations, it fails as both a horror thriller and social commentary.

The great thing about Dark Summer is that even though it might be "just another zombie show," it is still entertaining. Dark Summer works perhaps better than the first season, even though it takes place in winter. There is no fat on its bones, with only eight episodes in the second season, so viewers do not have time to start feeling bored. Although such a short season could fail at sucking viewers in, this is not the case with season two of Dark Summer.

I found the American movie Army of the Dead surprisingly good. It was good because the producers introduced us to some great characters, and generally, they were not badly written or flat. Even the main villain is great, and decidedly not flat. The movie gets quite emotional, so I thought Army of the Dead works well in the end.

The American television show Castlevania has a strong British vibe due to the British actors providing the characters' voices. It also has a strong Japanese influence, thanks to the superb animation. This animated TV series is worth watching, and you are not going to get bored because of the especially good action scenes plus some great gory fight scenes. It really is good to see vampires portrayed as real badass guys again.

Being way too correct is not the main problem with The Irregulars. The problem is that it is way too predictable. On the surface, it all looks nice enough, and production-wise, this television show does not disappoint. However, the show brings nothing to the table. The decent horror atmosphere is killed by a clichéd narrative where perhaps not a single character is developed well except for Watson. Ultimately, I almost feel sorry that the producers of this show used familiar characters and did not develop their own.
