I watched this documentary on netflix and found it very interesting. It was very sad to watch her deteriorate though. What I did find annoying though was how it kept going backwards and forwards in years, it would have made more sense to show her years in order as it was very confusing at times. We also see that cissy Houston was not a very nice mother at all, her interview with Oprah was both shocking and disgusting. For years I always blamed bobbi brown for her getting into drugs when I had no idea she had been dabbling in drugs long before she met him, he didn't exactly help her though and pretty much encouraged her drug use to the point if no return and ill never see him in a good light because if that, and the fact he pushed her best friend away and belittled Whitney when she was already feeling low 😔. If you was a Whitney fan and feel like you've seen everything any documentary has to offer, then give this a go. You might be surprised at what you find out.

    I watched this movie on Netflix awhile back. It's a good movie if you are looking for something...

The only reason I'm rating this a two, is because it made me actually laugh out loud. The fact that the documentary makers thought it was a good idea to prominently feature these 'internet sleuths', instead of real journalists (sorry not sorry), is BAFFLING.
The internet sleuths were all CUCKOO for COCO Puffs. It was certainly amusing, but it was a major misstep. Where were the real journalists? It was just a car wreck. All of those people might as well have been wearing tinfoil hats on camera.
Towards the end, I was actually offended by the fact these sleuths kept insisting that her cause of death wasn't partially due to her mental illness. Apparently, they're sleuths, but they don't know anyone with bipolar disorder, and decided not to google it? It was disgusting to me. Had they presented the facts re the victims medication, etc, I could have solved it immediately.
This could have easily been an hour and a half. All of the conjecture was annoying, and, quite frankly, insulting to the victim. If I was her family, I'd hit Netflix with a lawsuit for this twaddle.

Netflix's: a haunted Mansion
I was roped into watching this by my partner, but I wasn't disappointed.

NETFLIX as usual has given us a great horror story just in time for Halloween, haunting of hill house is a diamond in the dark that follows a group of distant siblings who are troubled and haunted by their childhood.

A brilliant offering with some very strong "the shining" vibes that were very welcome.
Dark, intense and deep with common issues.

After the death of one of their own, the siblings are forced to reach out and come face to face with each other....and their estranged father.

With storys of past, present & future dangerously entwined and nightmares clawing their way back in, time, trust & understanding may be their only means of surviving.

Although some parts seemed to drag a little, it more than made up for it with sub plot explaining and some great cliffhangers.

The show is an adaption of the Shirley Jackson novel of the same name from 1959.

It is definitely something I will watch again and something I'd like to see more of.
