The Bondsman: Season One
Kevin Bacon stars as a bounty hunter who rises from the dead in this blood-soaked, demonic horror-comedy, The Bondsman, on Amazon Prime Video. As Hub Halloran, Bacon swaggers through a hellish to-do list from the Devil himself, complete with faxed assignments, possessed preachers, and small-town drama. Beth Grant plays Hub’s sardonic mum, who steals every scene, but the show’s strongest moments come when it leans into its absurdity and gore – it’s not one for those who are squeamish or feel faint at the sight of blood!
Black Mirror: Season Seven
Creator Charlie Brooker returns with six new tales for Black Mirror’s seventh season on Netflix, bringing plenty of glum stares into the algorithmic abyss. Standout episodes include ‘Eulogy,’ with the ability to step into photographic memories of the past, and ‘USS Callister: Into Infinity,’ bringing nostalgia from 2017’s season four. As ever, there’s a glossy cast (Peter Capaldi, Rashida Jones, Chris O’Dowd, and plenty more), but this series no longer feels so terrifyingly prophetic. Perhaps they have slowly conditioned us with predictive programming?
