The Manster (1959)


An American reporter in Japan is sent to interview an eccentric Japanese scientist working on bizarre experiments in his mountain laboratory.

Entertainingly silly and sleazy monster flick on a low budget.

The Fall, Season 1 (2013)



A seemingly cold but very passionate policewoman goes head to head with a seemingly passionate father who is in fact a cold serialist in this procedural out of Belfast.

Compelling crime drama with great atmosphere and extraordinary performances creates suspense, but this first season very disappointingly ends in mid-air, although the conclusion is clearly at hand.

She came along the alley and up the back steps the way she always used to.
