I have an interest in the paranormal and people's supposed psychic abilities so I enjoyed this film. However it absolutely failed to reach its potential and the twist at the end which could have been mind-bending was rather a damp squib. On a side note, if the subject interests you, I once watched a Storyville documentary on Uri Geller where he was proven to be a fraud (not that that stalled his career at all) but that is definitely worth a watch!

As always Aleatha had me sucked in right from page one. I LOVED the start to Knox & Charli's story in Betrayal and Cunning was just one step further into their world. Crazy twists and hidden plots.. this book was a roller coaster of events. The fact that they have finally opened up to each other, admitted what they had was real and then... we're left with another huge twist!? OMG.. killing me!? LOVE this story and CAN NOT WAIT for the next installment!!

Unexpected
I am a wimp when it comes to scary programmes and films. So when my husband sat me down to watch this I was ready to poo myself after some things said on Facebook. I managed to watch all 10 episodes with only jumping once. I expected it to be far more scary. Instead I just felt said for the Craine family and a bit deflated by the end. However I did enjoy the storyline and the twist

Criminally Madcap
Two British teachers discuss true crimes and the insanity that surrounds them, with a twist of wry British humour, sarcastic barbs sharp enough to have sunk the Titanic, and a sprinkling of anecdotes that will leave you thinking that teachers must be some of the bravest people on Earth.
Not as slick as most of the American podcasts you will come across, but charming enough that you really don't mind.

This is the 2nd book in the Kyndred Series and one that I was looking forward to, as I liked Rowan from her appearance in Shadowlight.
Did it live up to expectations? Mostly, is the honest answer.
These books are paranormal with a twist, so everything that I enjoy. However, they can be so convoluted and confusing that it can detract from the story (for me).
More characters are introduced in this book so keep your head and remember who is who!

Gisell Middleton (189 KP) rated A Stranger on the Beach in Books
Oct 31, 2019
This novel is reminiscent of Gone Girl in its style and plot. The dual points of view with at least one, maybe two, unreliable narrators propulses the story making it a page turner. The twists are well executed and some of the characters are well fleshed out. However, there are many questions left unanswered, some loose ends that could have been tied up nicely and a few eye-rolling moments. All in all, an excellent psychological thriller with a twist.

Not as transparent as the title
While not as good as Split it's still a very good above average thriller, James Mcavoy excels as the main baddy carrying up to ten different characters, I love Sarah Paulson but you'll hate her character at the end of this , Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson both play their roles with great gusto ,all in all a great film let down by tge ending

Following up Dracula, we get this bout an hour drama, with a slight horror twist at the end. Made with actual side show performers, the main 'horror' at the time was people outside the norm.... who actually are the compassionate centerpiece of the movie. Kinda boring really, but I though Dracula was too.... and don t get me wrong, I love some old black n whites. A good watch for cinema history, but not something you're gonna rewatch a lot.
