Confronting a Serial Killer Review: The Confession Is Chilling, But the Story Is Balanced

New DVD releasechilling, confession, confronting, killer, review, serial, story

The new Starz documentary series Confronting a Serial Killer is captivating, immersive and infuriating. One of the first things we learn is how victims are parsed through the criminal justice system. On the scale of homicide priorities, “pretty white college students are the most dead, black hookers are the least dead.” Because it tells a story about an under-represented and largely dismissed cross-section of the community, Confronting a Serial Killer focuses on the victims. Even the journalist spearheading the investigation is a survivor. Putting a human face and voice to statistics is a slowly growing trend in true crime coverage.…

New DVD releasechilling, echoes, ending, episode, falcon, soldier, winter

This article contains The Falcon and the Winter Soldier episode 4 spoilers. From the moment he was first introduced, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier has been drawing very clear distinctions between how Wyatt Russell’s John Walker approaches being Captain America compared to Steve Rogers. While he only appeared for a brief moment at the end of the first episode, one detail that immediately stood out was the semi-automatic pistol prominently displayed on his hip. It makes sense, of course, Walker is already a much more seasoned and battle-hardened soldier than Steve Rogers was when he first put on the…

This Chilling Adventures of Sabrina article contains MAJOR spoilers for the series’ ending. Obviously. We bid farewell to Greendale (for now at least?) and explore what it all means. This Chilling Adventures of Sabrina article contains nothing but spoilers. We have a spoiler-free review right here if you prefer. As the credits rolled on the final chapter of the saga of Sabrina Spellman, she had given her life to protect all of existence itself. A noble death to be sure, but one that is steeped in permanence.

Netflix, New DVD releaseadventures, chilling, review, sabrina, season, spoiler

This Chilling Adventures of Sabrina review contains no spoilers, except for some information that was presented in the series’ trailers. It is based on all eight episodes of season 4 that were made available to critics. “Once more into the fray, right guys?” Let’s just bottom line things right up front here: This is Chilling Adventures of Sabrina‘s strongest — and most entertaining — season. So naturally (in what is rapidly becoming the streaming giant’s signature move) Netflix canceled the series just as it reached its creative peak. The eight episodes of this fourth and final chapter of the Archie…

Andrew Scott Reveals His Dark Materials’ Chilling Behind-the-Scenes Secret: Show Tunes

New DVD releaseandrew, behind, chilling, materials, reveals, scenes, scott

His Dark Materials is the Dune of the TV world, which is to say: extremely selfish with its cast. As if His Dark Materials didn’t already have more than its fair share of charismatic talent in Season 1, they’ve gone ahead and added Andrew Scott to Season 2 of the epic fantasy series as Colonel John Parry. (Scott’s Fleabag boss and co-star Phoebe Waller-Bridge will be voicing his character’s daemon, which, again: let other shows have some talent, would you?) I jest, of course. It’s been one of 2020’s few joys to see the second season of this show come…

The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Riverdale Crossover That Never Was

It was Sage Francis who quoted Kurt Vonnegut who paraphrased John Greenleaf Whittier when he declared “of all the words of mice and men the saddest are ‘it might have been'” in his 2014 song “Vonnegut Busy.” Despite who originated this oft-used declaration, the truth remains that few things are sadder in life than a missed opportunity. And in 2020, when good news is extinct? Well, could-have-beens feel more devastating than usual. For Archie fans it’s been a rough couple of weeks. First, Katy Keene was cancelled by the CW after its promising first season, and word has come that…

Netflix, New DVD releaseadventures, canceled, chilling, netflix, sabrina

Good news, everyone! Chilling Adventures of Sabrina season 4 (or Part Four in the preferred parlance) is on track to air in late 2020. Now some less than good news… TVLine reports that Netflix has canceled Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and the show will conclude after its eight-episode fourth season. Though Netflix has been on a bit of a cancellation spree of late, axing shows like Dead to Me, Ozark, and more, this one comes as a particular shock. Sabrina showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa provided the following statement to TVLine. “Working on Chilling Adventures of Sabrina has been an incredible honor…
