The six-episode MOONFLOWER MURDERS premieres on PBS MASTERPIECE on Sunday, September 15. This is a sequel to 2022’s series MAGPIE MURDERS. Both are adapted from bestselling mystery novels of the same titles by Anthony Horowitz, who also wrote all the teleplays, and serves as one of the series’ executive producers. In MAGPIE MURDERS, present-day London book editor Susan Ryeland (Lesley Manville, Oscar-nominated for her performance in 2017’s PHANTOM THREAD) searched the unpublished manuscript of one of her authors, Alan Conway (Conleth Hill of GAME OF THRONES), for clues to his murder. At the same time, we saw the story of Alan’s […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Kit Harington, Ashleigh Cummings, James Cosmo, Caolinn Springall Writers: Greer Taylor Ellison & Alexander J. Farrell Director: Alexander J. Farrell Distributor: Well Go USA Entertainment Release Date: July 26, 2024 THE BEAST WITHIN begins with the onscreen proverb, ““There are two wolves inside of us … they are always at war.” We then see a woman in old-time garb searching in the forest for “William.” This ends badly. Then we’re in the present, or thereabouts.

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Aiden Gillen, Aisling Kearns, Gary Lydon, Helen Behan, Deirdre Donnelly, Liam Carney, Irma Mali, Steve Wall Writers: Fiona Bergin & Fintan Connolly Director: Fintan Connolly Distributor: Brainstorm Media Release Date: September 22, 2023 BARBER is in many ways solidly in the tradition of the private eye thriller. However, there are several changes from convention. For one, we’re in present-day Dublin, somewhere in COVID times; lockdown is over, but nobody is sure when or wear to wear masks, when to shake hands. And nobody carries a gun. Our hero, Valentine Barber (Aiden Gillen), is a low-rent private […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Hannah John-Kamen, Douglas Booth, Jamie-Lee O’Donnell, Kristian Nairn, Chris Walley, Colm Meaney, Niamh Cusack, Finbar Lynch Writer: Mark Stay, story by Mark Stay & Jon Wright Director: Jon Wright Distributor: Well Go USA Entertainment Release Date: March 10, 2023 (theatrical); March 14, 2023 (digital) UNWELCOME is part of a pleasing new mini-trend in horror. Instead of keeping secrets for no good reason, someone who actually knows what’s going on explains it early on, and it falls to the main characters to heed the warning or not. This may cut down on mystery a bit, but it stops […]Read On »

Prime Video’s series CARNIVAL ROW premieres its ten-episode second and final season on February 17. The show debuted in August of 2019, and was promptly picked up for a second, but COVID delayed production so much that it’s just coming out now. In CARNIVAL ROW, a war of acquisition between rival human nations in the Faerie homeland has caused Faeries to flee for safety to the human realm of the Burgue, which resembles Victorian England.
