Channel Zero Season 2 Episode 4 Review: “The Exit”

Warning: This article contains mentions of transphobia, racism, and slight spoilers for Channel Zero. Last week, I wrote about my cautious, intrigued optimism for the second half of “No End House.” Because of that, it is disappointing and frustrating to say that…

Doctor Who “Planet Of The Dead” – Review

Ahhh, “Planet of the Dead.” This is one of my all-time favorite episodes of Doctor Who. Usually, I’d do a bit of a ramble here about something stupid like books, audio dramas, or how the T.A.R.D.I.S was a bit boring and non-functional…

Channel Zero S2 Ep3 Review: “Beware the Cannibals”

Warning: This article contains slight spoilers for Channel Zero. “Beware the Cannibals,” the mid-season episode for “No-End House,” keeps Margot at its center. Understandably, as she seems to be the primary audience stand-in/protagonist and picks up where her wariness-inducing tete-a-tete with her…

Doctor Who “The Next Doctor” – Review

Merry Chrimbo! Wait, I’m a few weeks late, aren’t I? These TARDIS’s(?), you can never get the help you need with these things; unless you put the stabilizers on, but that’s boring. They are boringers, great big boringers. Nonetheless, there is more Doctor…

Channel Zero Season 2 Episode 2 Review: “Nice Neighborhood”

Warning: This article contains slight spoilers for Channel Zero season 2. “No-End House”‘s second episode, “Nice Neighborhood,” sets aside more overt horror for surreal, more ominous thriller fare. Creeping along at a slow (but not glacial) pace, the episode starts to contend…

Doctor Who “Revolution Of The Daleks” – Review

Roll up, roll up for the Magical Nostalgia tour! Three guineas, twelve shillings, and one angel for a single adult. Kids get bored to death for free. Oops, that gives away the game, if my near disdain of Chris Chibnall wasn’t apparent…

Channel Zero Season 2 Episode 1 Review: “This Isn’t Real”

Warning: This article contains mentions of child sexual assault, and slight spoilers for Channel Zero: No-End House. With the new year, comes a new season. Well, not so much, but new to me. Channel Zero‘s second season, “No-End House,” hints at an…

Impetigore (2019) Review

Warning: This article contains mentions of child and infant death, gore and violence, and mild spoilers for Impetigore. In an entirely on-brand move, I ditched the Christmas movies this year. I’ll spare you all the reasons for why my spirit’s been rather…

Dr Who “The Stolen Earth” & “Journey’s End” – Review

Boof, and the planet is gone. I’m not sure that is what Barry Scott was on about with his useless cleaning product. Either that, or he’s one of those little green men Wilf is on about all the time. The last episode…

Channel Zero Episode 6 Review: “Welcome Home”

Having arrived at the closing of Channel Zero‘s first season, “Candle Cove,” I’m pleased to say (as odd as the sentiment may be) that this final episode might be the strongest in the season. For one, it seems to have finally figured…
