Lost Girls (2020)


When Mari Gilbert's daughter disappears, police inaction drives her own investigation into the gated Long Island community where Shannan was last seen. Her search brings attention to over a dozen murdered sex workers.

Strong, realistic true crime drama focused on the victims and their families amid a botched investigation;  enhanced by solid direction and extraordinary performances.

Gog (1954)


A security agent investigates sabotage and murder at a secret underground laboratory, home of two experimental robots.

Above-average, original sci-fi drama within a Cold War background still is quite silly, but quite entertaining and it's good color cinematography is enjoyable to watch.

Halliwell*: "Brisk, imaginative low-budget sci-fi in gleaming colour, well staged and developed."

Maltin**: "OK sci-fi..."
