Willow (2022)
A continuation of the fun tone of the original
I remember the original film being light hearted, some times silly and some times scary. After two episodes, that tone has continued in this new series. The world of the movie is being expanded upon with new lore, locations and dangers while reflecting the world we live in. Those who find issue with characters that represent people they choose to ignore can simply not watch. Like the world of Willow, our world evolves whether we like it or not. Sorsha chose to ignore the eventual reality, but it still happened. We evolve or are left behind.
By the end of the second episode, all our characters are learning that their lives have changed whether they wanted it or not. Responsibilities and expectations hardly ever pan out how we plan or expect. But like a little sapling growing before the final credits roll, there is always hope.
Zombeavers (2014)
A movie that has been made before...many times
Don't pay attention to any of the internet hype about this one. Its concept and execution is as tired as the fill in the blanks aspects of the script. Bad movies that are self-aware and low quality on purpose are not quirky and clever. They are lazy and don't deserve the adoration they receive. Don't indulge no talent filmmakers who are making the same "horny teenagers in the woods" movies with whatever mishmash of pop culture references they can come up with in an afternoon high on Sativa. As an audience, we need to demand more creativity. Yes, even from a silly monster movie such as this. The emotions that a comedy/horror movie like this are attempting to evoke come from not knowing what the punchline is or where the creepy-crawly is going to come from next.
