What have I been watching #22

 Hi guys! Time for another film/TV post....stuff I've been loving lately:) Guys....I've been obsessing over European crime drama shows, especially the Nordic Noir genre.

(streamed from Netflix or Amazon unless otherwise stated)

1) Sorjonen ("Bordertown" on Netlfix)

A great show, with a lead who's the Finnish equivalent of Sherlock Holmes, with his own version of Moriarty (the character of Maasalo). Not only does this show have great crime plot lines, the personal drama is pretty awesome as well. Love love love.

2) The Valhalla Murders

Too bad there's only one season of this show. Love the lead actress Nìna Filipusdøttir who played the policewoman Kata, and her crime profiler partner Arnar (played by Björn Thors).

3) Shetland

Not really of the Nordic Noir genre, but it has the same kinda vibe. A great crime drama series, with an awesome Scottish setting. (As a knitter, Shetland has a special place in my heart:D)

4) The Raven

As an Edgar Allan Poe fan, I can't believe I just recently saw this horror film. Not super scary, but John Cusack was awesome as the poet. I love how the film "explained" Allan Poe's mysterious death.

4) Stay

A psychological thriller, this film was just ok, but I thought all the actors did a fab job. Ryan Gosling, particularly, was awesome IMO.

5) Red Lights

This film is considered horror, but it was more of a psychological thriller too. Love love love the twist in the end.

6) May The Devil Take You

I thoroughly enjoyed this supernatural Indonesian horror film. Great acting from everyone to boot.

7) Things Seen and Heard

This horror film just came out on Netflix so of course, I had to see it. TBH, the ending was lame, but I thought Amanda Seyfriend and especially James Norton were great in their roles.

8) The Strange House

This is horror film on Netflix, but honestly, I think even kids can see this. It's more of an adventure/coming-of-age kinda film. A fun watch for sure.
