When it comes to zombie cinema, Hollywood may have quantity, but South Korea has quality. Over the past decade, Korean filmmakers have taken the zombie genre and reshaped it into something fresh, emotional, and unpredictable. Is it just that it’s a foreign language and feels more exciting somehow? I don’t believe it’s just that, but it certainly gives it an edge over many of the zombie-film tropes I’ve seen so many times, and that’s without getting into the countless shows we’ve all seen on repeat. So, if you haven’t given South Korean zombie movies a chance, now is your time…
I’ve always had a soft spot for Mr Jones Watches. Their quirky, story-driven designs are unlike anything else in the watch world – playful, bold, and often a little tongue-in-cheek. The size has always been ideal too, with most models coming in at 37mm, which is perfect for someone like me with slender wrists. But there’s always been one problem: the lugs. Mr Jones’ cases used to have long, overhanging lugs that just didn’t sit right on smaller wrists. On me, they looked awkward – like the watch was trying too hard to cover territory it couldn’t quite manage. And…
Tablets have become go-to gadgets for a lot of people, sitting neatly between a phone and a laptop. The good news? You don’t need to splash out on a flagship model to get something worthwhile. Today’s budget tablets pack in sharp screens, solid performance, and plenty of features for far less money. Whether you’re after a device for streaming, gaming on the go, reading, or light work, there’s a wallet-friendly option out there. It wasn’t always like this. Early budget tablets often felt like a compromise – slow processors, flimsy builds, and a bare-bones app selection. But things have moved…
It can be difficult for any new show to really pull in an audience, let alone keep one. Every show is competing for ratings or views in some way, and with the growth of premium streaming services, that competition just becomes fiercer with each passing year. So having that right first episode, or pilot episode, can really do a lot of lifting in drawing an audience in. You might argue that binge culture has made pilot episodes more obsolete, especially with streamers releasing all episodes at once. Still, I would say that a great first episode can make or break…
Watching high-quality TV doesn’t necessarily require a costly subscription to a cable or streaming service. Several iPhone apps offer live and on-demand content for free, supported by advertisements. Of these, I have found one in particular that does a great job. Until a few months ago, I had never heard of this app. Perhaps you haven’t either. After all, it’s not even currently on our list of the best free streaming TV services. What is Stirr TV? The app isn’t well-known First introduced in 2019, Stirr TV was first conceived by the Sinclair Broadcast Group. Since 2024, it’s been owned…

I don’t know about you, but I hate watching TV with my phone nearby. Every few minutes, I’d check it, lose my place, and get distracted for far longer than I intended. Sure, I could put it away, but then I’d be constantly guessing what each buzz or ping might be. That anxious “what did I miss?” feeling never really goes away. It’s not such a problem when I’m working, since I already connect my phone notifications to the PC with Phone Link. Well, guess what? With the Tv Overlay Remote app, you can do the same thing on your…
To me, thrillers have always shared blood with action and horror, because I’m always on the edge of my seat. Anxiety and anxiousness are part of the package. However, thrillers are king when it comes to making the story the most thrilling aspect, like slowly discovering the killer behind the mask. And it’s in that core characteristic that thrillers can be co-opted by numerous other genres, from fantasy to science fiction and dystopian. There are even binge-worthy British thrillers! The mark of a good thriller — and the best thrillers — is the ability to capture your attention, and Netflix…
With ChatGPT, we scramble to hoard “perfect prompts”: sophisticated formulas that promise to unlock the AI’s best answers. I’ve tried my share, from presentation simulations to productivity hacks, but I always ended up back where I started, wondering if I was overcomplicating things. Then I stumbled on a fascinating study by researchers at The Wharton School (University of Pennsylvania). The paper tested whether language models like ChatGPT respond to the same persuasion principles that influence people. They found that the difference isn’t just what you ask — it’s how you ask. Not unlike human conversations. The AI “Call me a…
The all new, all-electric Nissan Micra, which is a very cute little thing, brings back memories of the first generation example I got given once. It was a free gift from a mate heading overseas, and was a bit of a wreck. Unlike the one that replaced it, which wasn’t. Both were great, though, for their simplicity and practical appeal. The new Micra is much the same, but there’s a bit of a back story.If you didn’t already know, the latest Micra incarnation is basically a cosmetically different version of the already hugely popular Renault 5. However, I don’t think…
