The Rezort



A zombie movie! Yes, I love zombie movies even when they’re terrible. This one had a good premise, it was much about the humans and their own kind of evil, rather than the zombies. They were just the excuse the humans need (or don’t) to make stupid mistakes and do bad deeds.

I must admit the movie wasn’t good, but it could’ve been. Well, at least a little bit better. I mean, we have a post-apocalyptic world with a zombie infestation, where everything is rebuilt and everyone is trying to find a way to live and achieve normality again and go back to their daily lives. It’s new, usually in this sort of stories things don’t come back to what they were, but here, I think they mean to show us that what truly happens is that mankind never learns.

So instead of finishing off all zombie, they decided to make a beautiful place to go on vacation. The special attraction? Zombie killing! What could possibly go wrong, right?

Well, beyond that, we have a protagonist with some traumas from the time of the war (or so they called it when the zombies ran free) but that’s not really fully explored, as with pretty much everything else in the movie. Even the ideas that could indeed be very interesting, are unfortunately totally neglected.

I don’t want to give you spoilers or anything, so let’s just say that in the end, you’ll be asking yourself how it was possible that after so many years, no one had even wondered how the resort was still in business.

Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes

This is not the sort of show which I usually talk about on this blog. However, as a psychologist, I’m usually quite curious in regards to criminals and their minds; and one of these days I started watching this documentary on Netflix . Taking into consideration the kind of thing this is, I can’t say I ‘liked’ it. I mean what you see in there is nothing to like, but I was rather terrified, which is probably the usual response. Nonetheless, it was definitely a good documentary. The eyes of a killer Everything displayed in this story was terrible. The descriptions, Bundy’s posture, everything seemed like some sort of horror show, putting into perspective what we may consider to be lucky or unlucky in this life. Before I even start watching it, I read somewhere that this was the kind of thing you shouldn’t watch alone. Sounds accurate right now. At the time, and considering my, mostly academic, experience, I didn’t think that this could actually be so upsetting. ...

Young Sheldon – A Heartfelt and Hilarious Journey

  Young Sheldon is a delightful surprise, blending humor, heart, and a touch of nostalgia. As a prequel to The Big Bang Theory , the show offers insight into the childhood of Sheldon Cooper, one of the most iconic characters in modern TV.  A Show That Grows Beyond Sheldon While you may start watching due to curiosity about Sheldon's early years, it soon becomes clear that this is not just about his childhood. The show includes an incredible variety of characters with their own charm and depth. Mary (Sheldon's religious yet compassionate mother), George (his often misunderstood father), and his siblings, Missy and Georgie, are all given their own moments to shine.  The cast and their chemistry make this show stand out. You start to care about each character's struggles and triumphs. This show quickly stands on its own as a heartfelt, family-driven sitcom. Especially in its last seasons, the show becomes a touching portrayal of small-town life, family dynamics, and persona...

House of the Dragon: Season 2 - a Matter of Good Characters

  As a fan of the original Game of Thrones , I approached the second season of House of the Dragon with high hopes. Unfortunately, I found it a bit boring compared to its predecessor.  The intricate political drama and the rich character development that made Game of Thrones a global phenomenon seem to be lacking here. Still, the show features some compelling characters who hold my interest. Daemon Targaryen Daemon Targaryen remains one of the most intriguing characters in the series. Although his arc in this season isn't as strong as before, he still commands the screen with his charisma and unpredictability.  Daemon's complex personality, oscillating between villainy and heroism, keeps viewers guessing his true intentions. His relationship with Rhaenyra and his struggle for power add depth to his character. He is, no doubt, a central figure in the unfolding drama. Aemond Targaryen Aemond steps into the spotlight in the second season, bringing a new level of intensity ...
