Martin Carr reviews the seventh episode of Wayward Pines season 2… What we get this week is more backstory but not served up in quite the same way. Flashbacks are designed to show us more background, deeper motivational meaning or any additional conflict or context present day actions are incapable of providing. But enough of […]
Wayward Pines Season 2 Episode 8 Review – ‘Pass Judgement’
Martin Carr reviews the eighth episode of Wayward Pines season 2… This is a continuation of last week’s powder keg episode where Abbies had congregated outside the fence by the thousand. Inside remained a hot bed of in-fighting, finger pointing and slanderous exchanges. What episode eight gives us is more of the same except this […]
Scream: The TV Series Season 2 Episode 6 Review – ‘Jeepers Creepers’
Martin Carr reviews the sixth episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… Name checking torture porn slasher flicks has now become par for the course in Scream. Text messaging gifs, red herrings thrown into the mix in order to flummox your audience and creepy locations are all expected. Tongue in cheek voice over, subtle […]
Preacher Season 1 Episode 6 Review – ‘Sundowner’
Martin Carr reviews the sixth episode of Preacher… If you wanted an opening ten minutes from left field then ‘Sundowner’ supplies it in spades, body parts and screaming slapstick decapitation. Scrawny Irish kick ass action combines with female abuse, literal heavenly intervention and more wheedling of an axe than most shows have a right to […]
Wayward Pines Season 2 Episode 6 Review – ‘City Upon a Hill’
Martin Carr reviews the sixth episode of Wayward Pines season 2… Coming across like a particularly visceral version of Chicago Hope or ER, Wayward Pines is gathering momentum as we head towards the half way point. With mutual resentment both sides of the line between Xander and Theo, in what can be best described as […]
Preacher Season 1 Episode 5 Review – ‘South Will Rise Again’
Martin Carr reviews the fifth episode of Preacher… There is a turning point in Preacher where the penny drops and things get intriguing. For fans of the comic book you knew it was coming, but for newbies this is a slap to the face, nut sack in an ice bucket sort of moment. However fear […]
Wayward Pines Season 2 Episode 5 Review – ‘Sound the Alarm’
Martin Carr reviews the fifth episode of Wayward Pines season 2… Pines is not for everyone. I figure that has become clear for those who have chosen to read my reviews of this season. Mildly unimpressed is merely the tip of a larger iceberg in my opinion. Intrigue and mystery which made the first season […]
Scream: The TV Series Season 2 Episode 5 Review – ‘Dawn of the Dead’
Martin Carr reviews the fifth episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… With the manky corpse of Jake making an unannounced appearance last episode recalling Carrie amongst other things, Scream goes for another thematic chestnut this week. Take everyone new, everyone old, lock them in one building and see what happens. As it turns […]
Wayward Pines Season 2 Episode 4 Review – ‘Exit Strategy’
Martin Carr reviews the fourth episode of Wayward Pines season 2… Let’s get this out the way now. Wayward Pines is not living up to my expectations. Season two is a rudderless ship adrift on an ocean of threadbare plot lines. Tom Stevens as Jason Higgins is stuck in a thankless situation where he must […]
Scream: The TV Series Season 2 Episode 4 Review – ‘Happy Birthday To Me’
Martin Carr reviews the fourth episode of Scream: The TV Series season 2… Every time I watch this programme there is no avoiding the guilty pleasure it gives me. Scream is the old school 90210 of teen dramas, where actors clearly over twenty wander around looking anguished with a charge card. There is such joy […]
