Killjoys - The Wolf You Feed television review

The nature of Dutch‘s (Hannah John-Kamen) connection to both Khlyen (Rob Stewart) and Aneela (John-Kamen) has been one the show’s writers have kept close to the vest, until now. With the help of Zeph (Kelly McCormack), Dutch undergoes a risky medical procedure which allows her to see into the memories of Aneela allowing the Killjoy to discover the nature of Khlyen’s relationship with her more evil and unstable doppelganger and better understand what led Klein to rescue her all those years ago. Like most of the show’s reveals, it’s about as bizarre as possible. And answers she finds only raises further questions for Dutch and who and what she is.

Ghost in the Shell Blu-ray reviewBased on the manga series of the same name, the live-action Hollywood Ghost in the Shell stars Scarlett Johansson (whose casting caused fan backlash). In a world where people are enhanced with cybornetic implants, Major is the first police officer whose brain (or ghost) is housed within the shell of the most advanced robot. While working for the corporation which built her, Major begins to learn disturbing secrets about them and herself that have little to do with keeping the peace. And, if any of this sounds familiar, it’s pretty much the plot of Robocop (without the humor).
