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.

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.
Back in black

» After what feels like an eternity, Netflix has finally brought Jenna Ortega back to our screens -- and back to the shadowy corridors of Nevermore Academy -- in Wednesday Season 2. This time, we're getting the story in two halves: Part 1 now, Part 2 in September. That split alone is enough to test the patience of fans who have been waiting since the breakout first season, but at least these four new episodes offer enough twists, revelations, and deliciously dark moments to keep us hooked until the rest arrives.

Can Cross break the curse?
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 22/11/2024
» There seems to be a recurring curse when it comes to adapting James Patterson's best-selling Alex Cross novels for the screen. Those who grew up in the 90s may remember crime thrillers Kiss The Girls (1997) and Along Came A Spider (2001), starring Morgan Freeman as the titular forensic psychologist and detective. Despite box office successes, these films received mixed-to-negative reviews from critics. The 2012 reboot, Alex Cross, starring Tyler Perry, fared even worse. Panned by critics and ultimately a box office bomb, it led to the cancellation of a planned sequel.
