Realistic battle scenes
The German 1917
Spotted this on Netflix and saw good reviews so tried it out. Didn't realise it was a German film but the dubbed audio wasn't distracting.
It's a great film, the battle scenes are up there with @1917 (2020) and @Saving Private Ryan (1998) in terms of scope and realism. One of the best World War One films. Check it out.

Decent Reboot
Caught this on Netflix, not on there much longer. Thankfully not just an updated Reboot, it's actually quite different from the Original Wrong Turn and many sequels.
Enjoyed the first half of the film, the turn so to speak was something different which is good to see but it did get a little bit silly. Not quite as shocking or as good as the original but entertaining.

A Mexican Supernatural
This appeared on my Netflix recommendations list, so I thought that I would give it a try. I am a huge fan of this type of series, and would liken the series to Supernatural and the exorcist.

Series 1 follows Elvis (a Diablero or demon hunter), Father Ramiro (a priest hunting for his daughter, conceived prior to his joining the Catholic Church, but later abducted by a demon), Keta (Elvis’ sister) and Nancy (a young women who attracts demons). The story primarily centres around the groups search for the truth in finding Ramiro’s missing daughter, although strongly hints at stories that could be followed up in a future series.


Despite being in Spanish originally, Netflix have dubbed the show in English relatively well. I am not opposed to subtitles, but I do like to be lazy at times.

I thoroughly enjoyed this show and binged on it in two sittings. The show itself was quite dark at times, which fits in well with the genre. The story line includes the plight of small children which encourages us to route for the main characters, there is also on and off romantic tension between Ramiro and Nancy, which I found interesting. One thing I will say though, is at times the special effects were a little low budget, although I can imagine that this will improve as the show picks up credibility.

I eagerly await a second season (please renew Netflix), and hope that series 2 is longer than season 1!
