The Last of Us: Long, Long Time (2023)
One of the best episodes of television I've ever seen
Like I said in the subject line :)
Beautiful, powerful storytelling. Stellar performances from Nick Offerman and Murray Bartlett. One of the best love stories I've seen anywhere.
I've never played the game so I can't speak to how closely it has stayed to that, but also, THIS IS A TV SHOW. I'm all about fans of the game getting their Easter eggs, but this show has introduced/opened the story up to millions of new fans (and I have a feeling this episode alone will draw many of us to the game too.)
Bravo to the filmmakers and HBO Max for taking a risk that paid off 1000x over!

Dry Blood (2017)
Scary, and creepy AF!
I'm a huge horror fan, especially indie horror. Great horror is rare, and great indie horror - which usually suffers greatly due to budget/quality constraints - is even more rare. Dry Blood creeped the hell out of me! Not only does it stand out from the usual fare, but it has such unique, surprising, and even shocking moments and scares that all I can say is hats off to the Dry Blood team! The horror genre has been on a roll the last several years - and the budgets are getting understandably bigger - so when I see those little films that could, and then went on to freak me out a bit (in a very good way), I will give all the props in the world. Well done!
