From its opening moments, Heel plants you directly inside the kind of chaos that feels uncomfortably familiar. A reckless night out, alcohol blurring consequence, bravado curdling into danger. It is the sort of opener that does not romanticize self-destruction but stares it down long enough to remind you why it always ends badly.
Read MoreThe Ugly Isn’t Easy, and That’s the Point
The Ugly lets you know immediately that it is not interested in comfort. From its opening moments, there is a quiet wrongness hanging over everything, the kind that does not announce itself with shock but with unease. This is a film that settles in slowly and refuses to leave, trading momentum for mood and patience for dread.

After recently seeing Mark Coles Smith in We Bury The Dead and being genuinely impressed with his performance, it was exciting to step back into his earlier incarnation of Jay Swan in Mystery Road: Origin Series 2. If that film showed his intensity, this series proves his range.

Read MoreDark Winds Season 3: Sand, Spirits, and the Weight of History
By the time Dark Winds reaches its third season, it has nothing left to prove.

Read MoreNetflix’s His & Hers Is a Steamy, Smart, and Twisty Southern Thriller
Netflix’s His & Hers is a dark, sultry, and surprisingly emotional Southern thriller that pulls you in from the very first scene and refuses to let go. Adapted from Alice Feeney’s best-selling novel and directed by William Oldroyd, the series takes place in the humid heat of Georgia, where secrets are as thick as the air and everyone seems to be hiding something. Tessa Thompson stars as Anna, a reclusive former news anchor whose life has fallen into quiet isolation, and Jon Bernthal plays Jack, a small-town detective haunted by his past and his complicated connection to her.
Read MoreMurder Before Evensong: Season 1 (2025) #DVD
Murder Before Evensong arrives as a charmingly atmospheric new mystery series, blending gentle humour, small-village intrigue, and a classic whodunit structure that feels right at home in the long tradition of British cozy crime. Adapted from Reverend Richard Coles’ Sunday Times bestselling novel, the six-part series leans into picturesque 1980s rural England, complete with gossiping parishioners, simmering scandals, and a church at the centre of more trouble than anyone in Champton ever expected. It’s always fun to see a familiar face doing something new, and Harry Potter alumnus Matthew Lewis makes a genuinely engaging pivot here as Canon Daniel Clement, a kind-hearted, slightly beleaguered clergyman who unexpectedly finds himself in detective mode.
Read MoreJoe Finds Grace (2017)
Anthony Harrison’s Joe Finds Grace is the kind of indie oddity that feels like it washed ashore from a different decade and then stumbled into 2017 almost by accident. Shot primarily in black and white and punctuated with sudden bursts of color, TikTok-style needle drops, and occasional rotoscoped animation that recalls A Scanner Darkly, it is a micro-budget comic tragedy that does not follow rules so much as wander around them. That is both the film’s charm and sometimes its limitation.
