Reailty Z - the Zombie Apocalypse Series from Brazil

Image
Reality Z is a Brazilian horror web television series based on the British television miniseries Dead Set. Produced in partnership with Conspiração Filmes and directed by Cláudio Torres, the first season of 10 episodes premiered on Netflix on 10 June 2020. The zombie breakout in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, starts to overrun the city to the horrors of the reality show crew. In their desperate bid to stay alive, they have to face monstrosities of all kinds. Why I liked it? Reality Z seems to try to correct all the wrong things that I found with Walking Dead and its series spin-off. Yet, it still deals with the biggest problem of any apocalypse. It's not the zombies you only have to watch out. Normal people are just as deadly if not more. If you like zombie-type series, this certainly will appeal to you. Brazilians did it right. Created by Cláudio Torres Directed by Rodrigo Monte Starring: Ana Hartmann Emílio de Mello Carla Ribas Ravel Andrade Guilherme Weber Luellem de Castro João...

I am Dragon

Image
 I am Dragon is one of the most remarkable dragon fantasy movie out there.  It's a Russian low-cost production, but let that not turn you away.  It pleasantly surprised me and millions of other fans.   The cinematics were beautiful, even if there was CGI involved in parts (like when the dragon is flying) and the story combines both legend, ancient people, and their rituals as well as a bit of a fairy tale element. It has a "Beauty and the Beast" feel to it, but both richer and deeper as a story. Edward Cullin, eat your heart out because this story put out any flames the "Twilight" Saga may have sparked in my opinion. And if a girl can fall in love with a vampire and a werewolf, well... let's just say this movie is intensely more romantic without all the poor acting and long drawn out multi-movie requirement. Wonderfully done. I highly recommend this as a must-see for those who love fantasy and fantasy romance. My only regret is that I can't sh...
