I'm not going to tell you anything about Possession. To even tease the premise beyond "it's a story about a couple going through a divorce" would ruin the movie's best attribute: watching Possession will make you feel like you are losing your mind. The movie has the cred to back it up, too, as it was deemed a "video nasty" upon its release in the...

Did streaming kill the clip show? In the late '90s and early Aughts, cable television was dominated by "clip and quip" style shows like E!'s Talk Soup and VH1's I Love The... series, but once streaming entered the picture, shows like this fell out of favor as scripted series and reality TV shows gained prominence.

Yes, that's a lot of dashes, but rest assured: This is a LOT of movie (in the best, most maximalist way). Based on a true(ish) story, this...

A Discovery of Witches might be the best-kept secret on streaming. Sumptuously romantic, decadently exquisite, and above all, smart, the fantasy romance follows what happens when a modern day witch falls in love with a centuries-old vampire. If that set up sounds like cliche, A Discovery of Witches somehow manages to subvert the vampire romance...

Are you in the mood for over ten hours of horror movie history? You're not? That's fair. Ten hours is a lot. But maybe you can break it up into five two-hour installments? Regardless, I'm giving you two "what to watch" options for the price of one: Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy and Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History of Friday...
