Bio: Eclectic tastes but lean toward psychological thrillers, horror, mystery. Love for many foreign as well as independent movies. I\'ve seen more than 12,000 movies. Not particularly fond of shooting, explosions, sex scenes or gore unless it\'s an inherent part of plot that is needed to drive the plot forward. Also somewhat bored with all the comic book types preferring instead real characters that hurt when hit or injured. Books, music and good conversation also important part of my life

Stranger Things (2016) - Rated 21 Jul 2018

This is so popular the rebel in me wants to rate it lower but it's just too good. There are fun inside jokes and references to all kinds of movies and happenings and even without that it will pull you in with it's clever story and fun characters. A winner.

Surprised me. I expected a good thriller but this was better than the expectations I had. Very engaging which makes me look forward tto a second season.

Broadchurch (2013) - Rated 21 Jul 2018

Based on season 1 alone I would have given this an above 90 rating. Wonderful and twisted! Second season is weak and third season is just ok. Overall I recommend this to friends, especially season 1.

La forêt (2017) - Rated 21 Jul 2018

The acting, the mood, cinematography was, for me, excellent. I used to watch many foreign films but got tired or lazy so I held off watching this but glad I finally saw it. I tend to rate high so maybe this should be 90 or more because I loved it. The pacing was great. Not a bunch of gore and constant gun battles and car chases. More of my thing; psychological thriller.
