What's it about? I always see it when I'm scrolling the Netflix menu but was never tempted by it.

Well if you ever liked Barrymore, you should look it up. Basically, she becomes undead and needs to feed on human corpses to survive and her reefer smoking husband played by Oliphant tries to help her while dealing with this new reality. Don't eat just before watching the 1st episode. She puts exorcism to shame.

Watched The Death of Stalin yesterday. One of the best comedy i've seen in a while. Totally my genre of humor.

I believe this is a first. You've finally broken the 7.9 ratings threshold.

There's this guy on You Tube, this channel called Talking Thrones and he said someone from the sets sent him emails of all the scripts from Seasons 8. It's a guy that usually is reliable and his guy also sent him images of the sets. It's probably bullshit cause the producers have sent fake things all over the net. But it's interesting so far reading these. Probably just fanfiction.

I finished Oliver Stone's Untold History of the United States.
The Untold History of the United States - Wikipedia
Grade: B+
A lot of good content and information that is normally untold, but it's fact after fact after fact after fact with less actual narrative and discussion. It also only discusses the 20th century history.

Sounds like a dry presentation that is better rendered in a written format. If they're just mostly rattling out facts, how did they make it entertaining? How strong is the storytelling aspect?

It was decent. They did have some common themes, for example the aggressive rise of the military industrial complex. However it did get exhausting toward the end.
Each of the episodes is independent on Netflix, feel free to try one and report back to me.
Dogtooth: 7.3WTF/10
I can't say that i love it and i can't say that i hated it either. The only reason i prefer Dogtooth to the Lobster or The Killing of a Sacred Deer is because it's 30 minutes shorther.
Kiss kiss, bang bang: 6.8/10
After the storm: 6.5/10

I watched it all but found it "meh". Felt like they could have simply made a 90min movie out of this and nothing would be missed.

Collateral is undoubtedly the best show I've seen in 2018.
It came into it expecting a good time, but it stunned me a little as to how well executed it was. To me Collateral is a culmination of gradual evolution of British crime drama, as it balances high energy with emotional connections very well and isn't heavy-handed on either. Everything here works, everything makes sense at micro-level making its viewer enjoy each and every crumb of dialogue it drops.
And Mulligan's character is a force. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen while she was present on it.
