The horror genre tends to get oversaturated due to how cheap movies are to produce and how profitable they are. And a lot of terrifying films fall out of popular conversation quickly, but luckily, streaming services like Netflix are a great place for these films to be rediscovered. Based on Stephen King’s novella of the same name, 1922 is exactly the kind of horror you’d expect from the prolific author. A slow-burning tale of murder, guilt, and rat infestations, this film works due to its mood and the central performance by Thomas Jane. Like many Netflix originals, 1922 initially enjoyed…

Apple fans assemble! On 9 September, Apple’s annual iPhone ritual will find the company unleashing new smartphones upon the world. We’ll get the usual vanilla, Pro and Pro Max iPhone varieties. But Apple has lobbed the Plus into the trash, because not enough people bought one. Instead, unless every single Apple rumour site is about to have all the eggs, ever, on their collective faces, the shiny newcomer will be the iPhone 17 Air. All of which makes me wonder what ‘Air’ even means today. Once upon a time, it was Apple code for astonishingly thin and light. Remember when Steve Jobs famously…

Amazon Prime Video has had some amazing blockbuster hits, from The Boys to Reacher, and so on. But tucked away in its vast library are shows that critics adored and fans still rave about, yet never quite reached mainstream recognition—and these are the ones you need to watch now. 6 Undone (2019—2022) When I first watched Undone, I was immediately mesmerized by the animation style. It utilizes what’s known as rotoscope animation, which involves layering live-action performances over hand-drawn visuals. The series creates a dreamlike atmosphere where reality and imagination constantly collide. The story follows Alma (Rosa Salazar), a woman…
