Equinox - 3 major inconsistencies I can’t ignore

Equinox is a Danish horror show full of mystery and surprises.

A small town, secrets, rituals, supernatural creatures… everybody looks a bit insane at some point. Speaking of rituals, why do they need to be disgusting? I mean, that egg!

Inconsistencies

While I truly liked the show, there were a few inconsistencies that I can’t avoid.

The whole drama happens in the 90s. The class of 99 disappears, yet most references are from the 80s. Why? No clue.

Music

The kids are into punk music. Well, it is okay, you don’t always follow what is trendy, right? However, there is a scene in the music store, where you can see a Queen poster on the wall (yes, the British rock band).

For fans like me, the photo in the poster is well known, from the beginning of the 80s.

Technology

Again, the tech used by the kids seems outdated. They are listening to music on cassettes. Yes, I remember to do it too, but it wasn’t the most common.

Besides, I have a different question: Why no one has a phone? I got my first cell phone in 98, and I was one of the last kids in the class to get one. In the show, not even the adults have one. Weird.

Clothes

All the kids' clothes, the colors, the shapes remember me of the 80s.

In this case, maybe someone with better knowledge of fashion could have a more accurate perspective on the matter. Yet, where are the awful bell pants we use to use back then? The excessive eyeliner? The lipgloss?

One more teenage show

A group of teenagers follows a myth that proves to be real. The premise is not exactly new, but the show is engaging.

There are only 6 episodes that you’ll probably binge-watch. A good mystery show with a surprising end. I totally recommend it.

Wednesday 2 (Part 1) – A Gorgeously Dark Return to Nevermore

Wednesday Season 2 lands with all the gothic flair that made the original binge-worthy —this time spotlighting even richer family dynamics and chilling new mysteries at Nevermore Academy. The first four episodes dropped on Netflix August 6, 2025 , with fans grudgingly waiting until September 3 for Part 2 . Why It’s Still a Blast Jenna Ortega continues to shine as a morose sleuth grappling with her supernatural talents and unwanted hero status. Her sharp delivery and deadpan wit are as compelling as ever. Family ties get deeper attention —Pugsley’s arrival at school, Morticia’s campus involvement (with Catherine Zeta-Jones in flamboyant form), and intriguing new faces like Steve Buscemi as the oddball new principal elevate the ensemble. Atmosphere and aesthetic remain rich and inventive. Tim Burton’s return as director (including a delightfully eerie animated sequence) and the inclusion of ominous crows and haunting visuals continue to delight. Mystery hooks abound...

Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story - review

While I found the pacing of Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story slow and, at times, even boring, the show shines in one particular area: its psychological depth. What kept me engaged wasn’t the storytelling rhythm, but the way it explored two very distinct and haunting personalities under the same roof. Two Sides of the Same Violence The series captures the sharp contrast between Lyle and Erik brilliantly. On one side, we see the volatile, angry, and violent brother—unpredictable but outwardly dominant, always ready to explode. On the other side, there is the insecure, fragile “mouse” of the family—timid, hesitant, almost paralyzed by fear. Yet, what makes Erik compelling is that under the right conditions, even he can lash out violently, especially when pulled into the orbit of his more aggressive brother. The dynamic between them feels like a nightmare recipe: one commanding, the other submissive, but both carrying destructive potential. The Many Shape...
