Curl up and tune in to Showmax In the mood for crime? Comedy? Drama? Look no further than our picks of the best shows and movies this month. We’re kicking off with a local film directed by Oliver Hermanus. In The Endless River, a young waitress welcomes her husband home to the small South African town of Riviersonderend after his jail sentence. When the family of a foreigner living on a nearby farm is murdered, the waitress and the grieving widower begin gravitating towards each other. Trapped in a cycle of violence and bloodshed, the two form an unlikely bond seeking to transcend their mutual anger, pain and loneliness. When Detective Felicity Dill is killed in a car bombing, her sister, Allegra Dill, an investigator working for a senator, returns home to San Bonifacio to find the killer. In the process of her investigation, she uncovers a web of corruption in the small Texas town. Briarpatch (S1) is an artistic, interesting mystery crime series based on the Ross Thomas novel of the same name. Vida (S3) returns with the two Mexican-American sisters, Emma and Lyn, who couldn’t be more different or distanced from each other. Circumstances force them to return to their old neighbourhood, where they are confronted by the past and shocking truth about their mother’s identity. In the Reckoning (S1) the murder of a teenager and the hunt for a serial killer in a suburban town sets two fathers on a course of mutual destruction that will reverberate through their quiet community. Explore the darkest corners of the male psyche through the eyes of two fathers, one of whom is a serial killer. It’s time, once again, to wreak some hilarious havoc on the spacetime continuum as Future Man (S3) debuts its final season to wrap things up. Josh Futturman, a janitor by day and a gamer by night, is recruited by mysterious visitors to travel through time to prevent the extinction of humanity. Hard-hitting cop show Bosch (S6) is back. The run of shows sees Harry playing a key role in trying to save his city after a medical physicist is executed and the deadly radioactive material he had with him goes missing. Finding himself at the centre of a complex murder case, a messy federal investigation, and an impending catastrophic threat to Los Angeles, Bosch must act as domestic terrorists threaten the fate of Los Angeles. The hit mockumentary What We Do In The Shadows (S2) is a look into the daily (or rather, nightly) lives of three vampires who’ve lived together in New York for more than 100 years – plenty of time to get on each other’s nerves. With the Whisperer War upon them, the collective communities must come together and possibly sacrifice all they have to find a way to silence the Whisperers once and for all. Otherwise Alpha will ensure they face a certain doom … The Walking Dead (S10) is the definitive zombie show, having won 77 awards globally. I May Destroy You is a British comedy-drama television series set in London where gratification is only an app away. Arabella is a carefree, self-assured Londoner with a group of great friends, a boyfriend in Italy and a burgeoning writing career. But when her drink is spiked with a date-rape drug, she must question and rebuild every element of her life. [MONTH] [YEAR] Get It Joburg West [PAGENO] August 2020 Get It Joburg West 5
