Handpicked Content

Film Highlight
Obsession

I went into this completely blind. No trailer. No synopsis. No nothing. I suggest you do too. And one more thing, do catch it on the big screen while you're at it.

TV Highlight
Spider-Noir
Prime Video

What started out as a voice-over cameo in "Into the Spider-Verse" is now a full blown weirdly stylish and fantastic take on the Detective Spider.

P.S. You can watch this in Black & White (exactly how you should watch it) or Technicolour. May need to update the Prime App for you to be able to switch between the two.

"Ben Reilly, a seasoned, down on his luck private investigator in the 1930s New York, is forced to grapple with his past life, following a deeply personal tragedy, as the city's one and only superhero."

Game Highlight
007 First Light

This right here lives up to the hype and then some. From the studio that created the Hitman games comes a swashbuckling larger than life action packed spy thriller that will leave you at the edge of your seats. Seems like a broader push to introduce a younger version of Bond to newer audiences - could Villeneuve's adaptation be heading in the same direction?

"007 First Light is a 2026 action-adventure video game developed and published by IO Interactive. Based on the James Bond franchise, it tells an original narrative inspired by the novels and short stories by Ian Fleming, and the film series starring the character."

Artist Highlight
Maphra

A viral sensation who has taken the metal world by storm. Maphra sounds surreal.

Bring Me The Horizon - Doomed (Cover)

Documentary Highlight
Fukushima: A Nuclear Nightmare

A horrific look back at what could have been the worst nuclear disaster ever - six times worse than Chernobyl with the fallout rendering the entire northern part of Japan uninhabitable with global ramifictions as well.

"Reconstructing the nine harrowing days following the disaster in forensic, real-time detail, from the control-room engineers fighting to prevent a total meltdown, to the political leaders confronting the unthinkable, to ordinary citizens caught in the fallout."

There are film essays and then there are film essays. The Youtube Shorts on lesser known Animated Films caught my attention.
