Finally got to watch Nosferatu... I was able to watch the original several months ago and was amazed at how well it was done for being over 100 years old. The new one is also quite good and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Happened across one called Preacher last night. It takes awhile to wind itself up with all kinds of odd things going on across the world. The Irish vampire is my favorite character so far. After 2 episodes, I'm hooked!

Just started watching a very promising crime show on Netflix, Untamed, all the better for being set in spectacular Yosemite https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/untamed  ... and flotsam The Wire is very well worth a look.

flotsam,
If you enjoyed Luther you will like The Wire. In fact I think you would enjoy The Wire no matter what. The story and acting are top notch.
It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

I remember enjoying that movie quite a bit back then Lex. Good to know it still stands up. Just finished a very enjoyable 6 episode series called the Assassin with Keeley Hawes (which was my initial drawcard). Its stylishly preposterous fun, certainly not to be taken seriously, with entertainment being its raison d'etre. A good romp all round 
Quantity has a quality all of its own

I just finished Katla on Netflix, an Icelandic series. It's dark and billed as horror, but in the end quite a moving story. Worth watching.
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

We like Keeley Hawes so will try the Assassin: my present diet is season 3 of Foundation And an old six episode ITV thriller newly arrived on Netflix, Loch Ness (previously called The Loch) which is quite good. We also like scandinoir, so will give Katia a try. Thanks for the tips.
