True Detective: Form and Void (2014)
A surprisingly lifting end to a deeply troubling story
Having watched this series with my heart in my throat from the beginning, the final episode has left me with a spiritual comfort that was sorely needed. I immensely enjoyed True Detective from start to finish. I would say that it's right up there with Game of Thrones in being one of my personal favourite shows, and all season long I had doubts that the last episode could bring it all together for me. But it did!
The performances by Woody and McConaughey were outstanding and George Remus from Boardwalk really pulled off the monster (no innuendo intended).
Whatever Nic Pizzolatto does next I'm sure I will enjoy.
Martyrs (2008)
Truly Horrific
This film is without a doubt the most horrific, disgusting kick to the senses I've ever seen. If you can sit and watch the whole film from beginning to end you will feel like you've been in an accident. This shouldn't be even classed as just a horror film it should have an entirely new classification. I seriously doubt that any film maker could ever surpass this film for pure nastiness without showing real life carnage for 2 hours. If you want to be able sleep after watching a film, don't watch this. I honestly wish I never watched it, not that it is't well made or well written, I just think that it goes to far down a vicious path.
