    Weekend watchlist: 10 TV shows and movies from Hollywood and Bollywood to check out

    'Wednesday', 'Bhediya', 'The Swimmers' and other recommendations


    Published:  November 25, 2022 18:12 Jennifer Barretto, Assistant Editor Features

    1 of 10
    A Korean Odyssey
    ‘A Korean Odyssey’ (Netflix): Jin Seon-mi is an odd-ball — she can see ghosts and monsters, and what’s worse, she is their target. This means she has few friends. A chance encounter with two ‘demons’, where she inadvertently ends up freeing one, only adds to her curse of drawing monsters to her. Years later however, the demon she let loose will return to her side and help her battle the forces of evil and he will fall in love with her. It’s not that the premise of this drama is new, but the dynamics of the players on the board will keep you engaged. Be warned though, this 20-episode narrative will probably turn into a binge watch.

    Wednesday
    ‘Wednesday’ (Netflix): The Addams family’s elder child is thrown out of normie school… because she let loose a bunch of piranhas into the pool when the boys who’d been tormenting her brother were in it. Now, expelled, the brooding girl is sent to Nevermore — her mother and father’s alma mater. Here, in a school for outcasts — vampires, warewolves and even gorgons — she will dedicate her time to stopping a serial killer, and while doing so, discover that she can make friends too. (Be warned, this ain’t no retelling of the kooky Addams family story; it’s a whole new narrative.) Image Credit: Netflix
    3 of 10
    The Peripheral
    ‘The Peripheral’ (Amazon Prime Video): At a time when the world is dipping it’s toes into the pool of possibilities tech and AI bring, this ‘Black Mirror’-style web series offers a scary look the implications of unchecked experimentation. A woman, great on VR platforms, is pulled into an alternate reality (set years into her future) where technology infiltrates every cell of existence. Sadly, on her first trip, she manages to see/get something she shouldn’t have - and the people in charge are on the war path to get the information back. The worst part? They are managing to influence her reality. What will the player do? Image Credit: IMDB

    The Dragon Prince Mystery of Aaravos
    ‘The Dragon Prince Mystery of Aaravos’ (Netflix): In this season of the Dragon Prince, Aaravos’s past is coming to light, and it’s not quite as nice as everyone would like it to be. Claudia is preparing to open the chrysalis and humans and elves are getting closer to war. Image Credit: Netflix
    5 of 10
    Kumari
    ‘Kumari’ (Netflix): When Kumari marries the second son of a village landlord in a distant land, little does she know she’s about to step into a cursed village that may well take everything from her, including her unborn child. Human greed, pride, sacrifice are all recurring themes in this horror movie, that will also leave you thinking about the impact parenting style can have on an adult. Image Credit: IMdB

    Itaewon Class 6-1585470838615
