    Star Trek: Section 31

    ½

    Watched this out of curiosity after giving up on Star Trek with how garbage Discovery was and the bastardisation of Picard. What a fucking waste of time this was. They made something that no one asked for or cared for. Who is this for? Because it’s certainly not for Trek fans. It sounded like a shit idea when it was announced, and looked shit from the promotional stuff. Can only think it’s for all the mentally challenged shills who eat…

    La Haine

    The Thing

    ★★★★★

    On the surface, The Thing is an 80’s horror with amazing and grotesque practical effects. But it’s really a great psychological horror. It shows us how humans can’t trust each other. How paranoia affects us when things are not what they seem. The way we can’t come together even when there is an existential threat. John Carpenter might have made one of the most perfect science fiction and horror films of all time with this.
