La Máquina
I am here for just about anything Diego Luna and Gael Garcia Bernal want to do, and if they want to star in something together, then I’m all in. The pair of sterling actors take to the small screen in a limtied series about a boxer and his manager. The story follows a once impressive fighter who’s on the decline, both physically and mentally, as he has a go at one more shot at success. Although the premise sounds a bit familiar, the cast, which includes Eiza González, promises a series that’s far more dramatic and emotional than a rote sports story.

Hold Your Breath
Something sinister is lurking in the storm
This spooky story has a fun premise that some of the more entertaining horror stories employ, which combines real world threats with perceived, potentially paranormal, ones. Sarah Paulson stars as a mother living in 1930s Oklahoma, trying to protect her daughter from an intense dust bowl storm that seems to harbor within some dark forces. The horror thriller debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival recently, and although it might be more enjoyed on a big screen, it’s certain to scare at home.

American Horror Stories: Huluween 2024
More terrifying tales from the long-running series
American Horror Stories
While I’m not a particular fan of branded puns, I do enjoy some creepy anthology stories when Halloween comes around. I don’t need them to be great, but I do want them to be weird and at least somewhat memorable. American Horror Stories, the episodic anthology spinoff series of the popular anthology series American Horror Story (it’s confusing), presents five new tales to unnerve and scare as the streaming service celebrates Huluween. I don’t know what they are about, and I don’t need to. I’m just excited about new scary content that’s going to be very dark and super strange.
