Dead Ringers (2023)
It looks awesome, and Rachel kills it- otherwise it's a little all over the place
I am a big Cronenberg fan, and I am very familiar with the original Dead Ringers. I will not compare them since this is a reimagining- but I will say they really are extremely dissimilar.
This show looks great, and Rachel plays the parts extremely well. The practical effects are SOLID- lot's of blood but I can imagine how it would be too much for some with all the graphic birth depiction. That being said- the show can be very hard to follow. It's all over the place, jumping from place to place sometimes from time to time with no indication. They are also introducing new characters all the way up to episode 5 (there are only 6). I think it could be a bit more cohesive. Yes, I do understand that is the point- it's supposed to be disorienting and the twins are supposed to sometimes be indistinguishable, so maybe you'll see it differently than I did.
Slumber Party Massacre (2021)
I had a great time watching it. Like a bad stage play.
It's not a well made movie, the acting isn't amazing. It's a SyFy original so you should know that going in. It's a fun watch. In so "so bad it's good" category. The pacing is fine and the kills are awesome. It's kinda like watching your friends act in a bad stage play in middle school. If you can get it for free on streaming, grab some drinks and watch it with a few friends.
