I don’t think last night’s mid-season finale was the best episode of The Walking Dead, but if I had to give someone a single episode to show them why TWD is such a mega-hit, I would give them “Start to Finish.” It was a perfect mix of hope, despair, and a seemingly endless number of zombies.
The episode begins with my favorite cold open in recent memory: Jessie’s kid Sam—poor, traumatized Sam—hiding in his room, drawing a disturbing picture in crayon. The camera pans slowly past him to reveal a line of ants crawling down the windowsill, down onto the floor, where they swarm over a half-eaten cookie. It’s not subtle, but given that we know that another, far more dangerous creature is about to enter the supposed safety of Alexandria, it’s a simple but very powerful overture to what’s to come.
Mother of the Bride Review: This movie is an embarassingly silly and crigny watch with no soul or substance.
The Guardian Of The Monarchs Review: This documentary evokes a profound sense of sadness as it sheds light on the shortcomings of investigations and raises crucial concerns regarding the perils confronting environmental defenders.
Thank You Next Review: This is an engaging and introspective watch about modern dating and the depths of relationships.
