Cryptid: The Swamp Beast (2014)
This is one of the best fake docs I have seen
Well directed. There's a cohesive script. The local actors are convincing. The scenes with the actors are interspersed with real person interviews. Jami "Captain One Eye" Burns is one of the highlights. The history of the Rougarou and the various interpretations of the monster is informative. Entertaining and fun.
Nightmare Alley (1947)
This original version was gustier than the modern remake
By today's standards and audience savvy, the remake is nothing to write home about. The original was a half century ahead of it's time. The 1947 audiences were not case hardened to this type of film. It's little wonder they were so disturbed by what they saw. Little wonder the film flopped and did nothing to help Tyrone Powers' career. He was the George Clooney of his day and it was brave of him want to appear in such a controversial film. I applaud him wanting to extend himself. I give this original more points for being so controversial and disturbing.
Kalifat (2020)
One of the BEST series from Sweden
Absolutely worth watching. An edge of your seat, nail biter! Excellent acting, especially Gizem Erdogan, who steals the show. It intelligently addresses women's issues.
