The Sister Ending Explained: The Paranormal Thriller’s True Horror

New DVD release, , , , ,
Warning: contains spoilers for The Sister What a sweet story. The baddie was dealt with. Poor Holly finally got closure on Elise’s disappearance, and she and loving husband Nathan had the baby they’d been trying so hard for. Yes, granted, he’s now haunted by her dead sister, but what else is new? The important thing is that it all ended well. Togetherness. Baby. Lovely. Except, hang on, what? Unlovely. There was nothing sweet about The Sister’s ending. It showed a dangerous liar getting away scot-free with – essentially – murder, and his only punishment coming from the ghost of the woman he…

How The Walking Dead Ending Changed the Daryl and Carol Spinoff

New DVD release, , , , ,
Ready for your surreal thought of the day? The Walking Dead recently planned to take Daryl and Carol off the series! Oh, don’t worry, we’re not going to let that one sink in too long, since said plan was connected to the now-revealed spinoff series, on which Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride will reprise their respective main series roles. However, it does reveal something rather interesting about how plans for AMC‘s developing spinoff series were altered. The Walking Dead main series showrunner Angela Kang and chief content officer Scott M. Gimple originally planned for the main series exits of Reedus’s…

Rebecca Ending Explained: Netflix Thriller With a Dark Twist

Netflix, New DVD release, , , , ,
This article contains Netflix’s Rebecca spoilers. Taking on a new adaptation of a classic novel is daunting enough, but factoring in that the story was previously translated to the screen by Alfred Hitchcock, produced by David O. Selznick and starring Laurence Olivier and Joan Fontaine – a film that would win the Oscar for Best Picture – makes it a particularly bold move. As we point out in our review though, it works, and in part because Wheatley has hewn closer to the book in some respects but also added modern themes and sensibilities – particularly towards the end. You’ll…

Lovecraft Country Ending Explained

New DVD release, , ,

The show follows Atticus “Tic” Freeman from estranged son and war vet to literal Magic Negro, and heir to a magical birthright. Tic, his father Montrose, friend-then-lover Letitia “Leti” Lewis, and her sister Ruby Baptiste become entangled with magic and the racist white folks who wield it.

The Trial of the Chicago 7 Ending: What Happened Next?

Netflix, New DVD release, , ,
It’s a strangely feel-good finale. After spending more than two hours witnessing a gross miscarriage of justice that seemed to suggest the deck is stacked against those the establishment deems “radical” or “extreme,” Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7 ends with the smallest of victories being given Hollywood heft. Tom Hayden (Eddie Redmayne) is all but promised a lenient sentence by the vindictive, and potentially senile, Judge Julius Hoffman (Frank Langella), provided he offers a contrite statement before the court. Instead Hayden attempts to read off the names of every American who died in Vietnam since this sham…

Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts Season 3 Ending Explained

New DVD release, , ,
The following contains spoilers for Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts season 3. And so Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts has sadly come to an end with its third season. While it’s a shame that we’ve only had less than a year filled with new Kipo episodes at the least got a satisfying ending. The main conflict was resolved, Kipo and friends are onto new adventures, and HMUFA is going strong. Still, we have a few lingering questions after the finale that we dug into to make sure everything was clear.  What happened to Emilia? Despite Kipo’s repeated attempts…

The Haunting of Bly Manor Ending Explained

Netflix, New DVD release, , ,
The following contains spoilers for The Haunting of Bly Manor. While many have pointed out that The Haunting of Bly Manor is not quite as scary as its predecessor, it certainly has a more satisfying conclusion. The Haunting of Hill House seemed to lose its nerve in the final hour, delivering an ending that was too saccharine and unearned. On the flipside, Bly Manor concludes its story in heart wrenching, then bitter sweet fashion, revealing the identity of the series’ mysterious narrator, detailing the fates of the 1987-set characters, and expelling the spirits of the titular manor. Here is what…

This article contains major spoilers for The Walking Dead comic and potentially season 11. The end is nigh for The Walking Dead. And we’re not just talking about the news that The Walking Dead season 11 will serve as the final season of the long-running zombie drama. We’re also referring to the fact that the show will soon no longer have any material from the original comic series to draw from.  Robert Kirkman’s Walking Dead comic lasted for 193 issues and 32 volumes before concluding in July of 2019.

The Walking Dead Season 10 Ending Explained

New DVD release, , ,
This The Walking Dead article contains spoilers for episode 16. Rarely has there been more pressure on a Walking Dead finale than season 10’s final hour, “A Certain Doom.” Due to the coronavirus pandemic, editing wasn’t able to be finished in time for the episode to air as originally scheduled on April 11, 2020. So fans had to wait, and wait, and wait, and wait some more. Now “A Certain Doom” has finally had its say and The Walking Dead’s penultimate season was able to conclude as originally intended. And “A Certain Doom” was worth that wait for the most…

This The 100 article contains MAJOR spoilers for the ending of the series. Who had “Most of Humanity Will Turn Into Groot-Shaped Beings of Energy?” on The 100 series finale Bingo card? If so, you guessed it! The CW series has finally come to an end and, after seven seasons, showrunner (and episode director) Jason Rothenberg has written a Battlestar Galactica-like ending that attempts to tie all the bloodshed that has come before up with a neat, tidy bow. Does the episode accomplish that? Not entirely. Let’s break down The 100 finale… Clarke Sees Lexa, Fails The Test Let’s be…

Utopia US Remake Ending Explained: Who is Mr Rabbit?

New DVD release, , , ,
Warning: contains major Utopia spoilers With newly invented characters and a whole new world wrapped around bad guys/pragmatic planet savers The Harvest (the US version of The Network), Gillian Flynn’s Utopia makes considerable changes to the Channel 4 original. It’s faithful though, in most of the ways that matter – Jessica Hyde, the unforgettable Arby, Wilson Wilson and more are all kept intact, just transplanted from London to Chicago. There’s some very close translation of a few memorable scenes, as well as a good amount of invention. Flynn rewrites the backstory to weave in new setting ‘Home’, and new players,…

Enola Holmes Ending Explained: Eudoria, the Reform Act and What’s Next for Enola?

New DVD release, , , , ,
Warning: contains Enola Holmes plot spoilers Netflix film Enola Holmes is a revolutionary parable about rejecting the status quo and choosing your own destiny. In it, Stranger Things’ Millie Bobby Brown plays the sixteen-year-old sister of Mycroft and Sherlock Holmes (Sam Claflin and Henry Cavill), a bright spark raised in splendid isolation by their mother Eudoria (Helena Bonham Carter) to think, fight and plot her own path through life.

Netflix and Dreamworks’ newest animated series, Jurassic: World Camp Cretaceous, takes the mythology of the Jurassic World franchise and focuses on a group of teen characters, surviving among the dinosaurs when the park’s safety features fail.

The Devil All the Time Ending Explained

Netflix, New DVD release, ,
This article contains The Devil All the Time spoilers. You can read the review here. After so much bloodshed and tragedy, few could expect to find peace at the end of things. That includes Tom Holland’s taciturn Arvin Russell. Yet sitting in a Volkswagen next to a long-haired gentleman, one who appeared to be part of the vanguard for the next generation, the often hyper-observant Arvin is letting his guard down, and a sense of ease washes over him for the first time in probably his whole life. On the radio, President Lyndon B. Johnson is droning on about some…

Strike: Lethal White Ending Explained

New DVD release, , , ,
Warning: contains major Strike: Lethal White spoilers. It’s fair to say that Strike: Lethal White didn’t have the most streamlined of plots. Condensing a 650-page novel with roughly the same number of characters into just four TV episodes produced a miniseries more squeezed than a carton of anti-depressant-laced orange juice. If you lost your bearings somewhere between the first ‘murder’, the multiple blackmails, the second murder, the secret affair, the valuable paintings, the inheritance scheme, the Zimbabwean war crimes scandal, and the long, tangled history between the families Chiswell, Knight and Winn, nobody could blame you. Take a look below…

Strike: Lethal White Episode 4 Review: a Tangled Ending Saved by Cast Chemistry

New DVD release, , , , , ,
This Strike: Lethal White review contains spoilers. Put your hand up if the conclusion to Lethal White’s investigation left you nonplussed and the killer revelation felt by-the-by. Now put your other hand up if that’s basically fine because you couldn’t give a McVitie’s fig roll who murdered Jasper Chiswell, or why, or by what means.  Finally, take both hands down, make loose fists and draw a scruffy Cornish beard on one and the face of an English rose on the other, then smoosh them together while making kissy noises. Until the Troubled Blood adaptation arrives, that’s as good as we’re going…

How I’m Thinking of Ending Things Book and Film Differences Make For Perfect Complements

Netflix, New DVD release, , , , ,
Charlie’s Kaufman’s filmic interpretation of Iain Reid’s celebrated novel I’m Thinking Of Ending Things has arrived on Netflix and it’s a complicated, beautiful, confusing work – certainly unless you watch it twice. The book and the film sit wonderfully together, both broadly the same narrative but both leaning into different strands and elements, with the movie picking up half-hinted at threads from the book. They both work, but in different ways. If you were wondering whether you should read the book first or watch the film, the answer is read the book. Not because it’s necessarily better – the two…
