Winter Watchlist Warmers - Dead Ringers - Miniseries

Dead Ringers lives on Amazon which is really churning out the decent content of late. Harlan Coben's Shelter, Gen V, The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart.

This is another one of my last minute Winter, catch ups. The series landed late April this year, however I am just getting around to finishing it now. The miniseries is based on the 1988 film of the same name by David Cronenberg, itself adapted from the 1977 novel Twins by Bari Wood and Jack Geasland.

Rachel Weisz is the two sisters, Beverly and Elliot Mantle. Joining Weisz is Michael Chernus, Poppy Liu, Britne Oldford, Jeremy Shamos, Jennifer Ehle and Emily Meade.

So this series is weird, creepy, a little drawn out and crazy. While it does rate 84% on Rotten Tomatoes, whilst also ranking highly with TV critics.

This was a bit of a full on watch, however I have really leaned into the TV miniseries this season. Which is indeed coming to an end. Yes the weather is warming up, the back burning is happening and school holidays is again, almost upon us AGAIN!

So is this worth around six hours of your viewing time? Maybe it depends how much you like a psychological thriller.

It does jump around a fair bit, have some wild sequences along with some gory births.

Dead Ringers, will not be everyone's cup of tea. However it looks great, shows Amazon is willing to give different ideas a go. Which I like. Amazon is also now finally creating great Aussie content like Deadloch.

Coming up soon, another TV end of year blog series. Followed by a long hot summer series January to February. Can you believe it's almost Christmas AGAIN????
