Movie 1: The Vanishing of Sydney Hall
This is a 2018 movie that we just recently discovered on Netflix. A young, very talented yet reclusive writer gets nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. He then spends years traveling the country trying to find the desire to write another book while also having a hard time keeping a relationship. While the actors are very talented this film gets a bit confusing and more than a little slow.

Movie 2: The Plague
This is a very difficult and unsettling movie to watch. It’s a drama that tries very hard to be a horror film. Set in a summer water polo class, the film focuses on the isolation and severe bullying by several twelve and thirteen year old boys. Part of the problem was the adult supervision seemed completely useless and nowhere to be found when these kids needed help. While the acting is very good, and it’s always good to see Joel Edgarton, the movies topic and how it is handled is more than a bit disturbing. Soon to be on Netflix.

Movie 3: We Bury The Dead
This is an interesting and different take on a zombie movie. It starts out where the US has had a catastrophic accident off the coast of Tasmania, killing all the islands population. The Australian government is requesting volunteers to go there and bury the dead. Until they realize some of the dead come back to life. It’s a well done thriller with a few twists and turns. Currently in theaters and will be streaming on a yet unannounced platform soon.
