Laura Palmer is One of the Most Tragic Characters in Television

David Lynch had guts when it came to writing the character of Laura Palmer. I have watched a lot of television in my time, but Laura Palmer's story is probably one of the most tragic stories in television. What's crazy is that even though her character is dead in the very beginning of the show, her character feels so real to the audience. From the way that everyone in Twin Peaks talks about her, it's interesting to get so many different viewpoints of her character. 

However, everyone could agree that Laura was indeed a tragic character. She had been thrown into an awful and cruel world, all because she was struggling to battle one of the most powerful entities from the Black Lodge. This evil only got worse when the entity took over her own father, that brought even more trauma to her character. The events that led up to her death was brutal to another level, and it was so sad how she had died in fear. The prequel film to her story was so hard to watch, and when the ending came around, I was so happy to see Laura finally get her happy ending. 

It's so sad how it took her death to finally feel at peace, and the fact that she saw Dale Cooper as one her guardians was such a powerful moment. 

It took a total stranger who never knew her, to help solve her murder, and it was so sweet how Laura never forgot about Cooper.

The Final Season of 'You' Ends on a Powerful Note

Image
  Credit to Google This article will contain major spoilers of You season 5. I am beyond thrilled with how You ended. People have always been mixed on what they think of this show, but I have always loved the insanity of this crazy serial killer.  Joe Goldberg is such a complex character who thrives on the power of love and is willing to do whatever it takes for the next woman he falls for.  He never hesitates to murder anyone, including his love interest. If she stops loving him, he will not hesitate to murder her. That is the main reason why Joe is freaking scary. He will be your knight in shining armor, but once that image of love is taken from him, he will show his true nature.  I loved how the final season focused on Joe’s evil self. While the first four seasons purposely viewed his character sort of like an antihero, the final season does not hold back on Joe’s evil side. We get a new glimpse into his character this time around, because in the earlier seasons,...

Pearl is a Wicked and Horrific Start to a Memorable Horror Trilogy

Image
  Credit to  Halloween Horror: Pearl (2022) — 3 Brothers Film Have you ever been so impressed by and scared of a character at the same time? Mia Goth pulls off such a likable character with terrifying tendencies of murder and mayhem. Pearl  is actually a prequel to one of my favorite horror films,  X , and is the middle chapter in a trilogy. This trilogy was directed by Ti West, and it featured Mia Goth playing two different characters, as both the antagonist and the protagonist in this trilogy. The prequel starts off Mia as the villain, Pearl. Unlike the protagonist, Maxine, that has her dreams come true, Pearl isn’t exactly given the same happy ending. If it hadn’t been for her killer self, maybe she would have had a chance in the ‘star world.’ Instead, we are given a total downfall of Pearl embracing her monstrous side, killing anyone that stands in her way. Pearl is determined to leave the farm and start a new life elsewhere, but her present life consumes her. I’...

“The Painter” is the Most Controversial Analog Horror Ever Created

Image
  Credit to https://www.youtube.com/@urbanspook “The Painter” was created by a YouTube content creator, called UrbanSPOOK. This creator is known for a fictional crime spree of two serial killers; depicting very unsettling and horrendous violent acts against their victims. The story does have its fair share of fans, but only very few can handle this type of heavy content. What makes this specific analog horror so terrifying, is that this type of horror can happen in real life. Serial killers have existed for decades, an unfortunate and sad fact that these monsters hiding beneath human skin walk among us. These fictional killers and their crimes are sick, extremely sick, I struggled to watch the content the first time I was introduced to the series. It follows a stranger the viewer is not yet aware of, who finds VHS tapes and plays them. The story plays out with authorities struggling to catch two serial killers; leaving behind paintings of their victims; like a sick parody of what w...
