Broaden your horror horizon
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 08/11/2025
» As a fan of Stephen King and his classic horror stories like It, and having watched only the first three episodes of the new series IT: Welcome To Derry, I can already say this latest HBO Max series feels more impressive and more authentically "King-like" than either of the two film versions. And I'll tell you why.

» An award-winning investigative journalist is brought in to cover a story aboard a luxury yacht as it sails from the UK to Norway. One night, she believes she has witnessed a murder -- but there's no record of the victim ever having been on the boat.
Your next K-drama obsession
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 08/10/2025
» When the opening scene of Tempest hits, viewers are immediately drawn into a world of political deceit, shadowy operatives and fragile trust -- the kind of high-stakes storytelling that South Korean dramas have become renowned for.
The school of trauma
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 03/10/2025
» Remember that Netflix documentary last year called The Program: Cons, Cults, And Kidnapping? It exposed the horrors young people endure through parent-sanctioned abductions to so-called academies designed to "fix" wayward kids. That documentary left many of us shaken with its raw look into an industry that preys on fear and promises false solutions.

» Fans of whodunnit murder mystery will be delighted to hear that Netflix has finally given us an adaptation of Richard Osman's best-selling novel The Thursday Murder Club, reimagined in the form of a movie. This adaptation is a fun, cosy and poignant little puzzle -- an engaging mix of heart, sorrow, humour and late-life epiphanies.
Super sexy, sadly superficial
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 29/08/2025
» Once in a while Netflix releases something designed less for art and more for provocation -- content clearly meant to spark chatter and lure viewers in through prudish uproar. Erotic thrillers, however, are a tricky business.
All too familiar

» With the premise of a dysfunctional family in a small coastal town entangled in criminal dealings under the guise of protecting their legacy, The Waterfront, Netflix's new original series, tries to blend slow-burn crime drama with bursts of action and emotional intensity. Across eight episodes, however, the show struggles to distinguish itself from a growing list of similarly themed dramas, despite its efforts to offer gritty realism and familial tension.
Unravelling family secrets

» The Better Sister is the kind of show that proves that even with a stellar cast, a gripping premise and polished production, there's no guarantee it will deliver a consistently entertaining experience. That isn't to say the latest Prime Video mystery thriller is a bad series -- far from it -- but it struggles to stand out in a genre already saturated with stronger contenders. We've probably seen a dozen shows that handled similar material with more finesse and momentum.
A shaky German thriller
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 09/05/2025
» If you've already watched all the decent action movies on Netflix but still hunger for more, the latest German flick Exterritorial could serve as a temporary solution -- though probably not much more than that.
Not so tasty
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 14/03/2025
» A wealthy German family spends their summer vacation at a picturesque villa in the French countryside. At first glance, everything appears picture-perfect -- luxury, tranquillity and the superficial harmony of a family trying to enjoy some quality time.
