Chasm: Curse of Kaine #1

Chasm: Curse of Kaine #1

The only thing I’ve ever wanted out of Ben Reilly is for him to be the Scarlet Spider. I don’t have much in the way of interest of him being Spider-Man or being a Spidey villain (which sadly are the only two options that Marvel seems interested in). Currently calling himself Chasm, Reilly is back in villain mode calling himself Chasm with his crazy girlfriend Hallow’s Eve robbing New York tourists for fun. He’s also had his past wiped from his mind, unaware of who he used to be or what he could become.

Leverage: Redemption - The Belly of the Beast Job

In one of the more interesting setups of the relaunched series, “The Belly of the Beast Job” features our team taking on a sexual predator of a music producer (Jeffrey Vincent Parise) but keeps them mostly in the background allowing the guest-stars to take over center stage when the naive Jenna (Emily Hall) gets hired for the new assistant position that their plans relied on. Working their way around less access than they planned, Leverage gives Jenna the proper nudges at the right time to lead her to uncover the truth about her boss and expose him, and his crooked business partner (Gail Rastorfer), to the world.

Immaculate

Sydney Sweeney stars as a novice recruited to be a nun at at a remote convent in the Italian countryside where older nuns are taken care of in their final days. From the pre-credit sequence, involving a nun frantically attempting to flee the order only to be tracked down and buried alive, it’s obvious to the audience there’s something dark happening in the convent long before Sister Cecilia (Sweeney) arrives. Not long after arriving, Cecilia discovers she is pregnant, leading the nuns treat her as a new Virgin Mary… well, except for the one (Giulia Heathfield Di Renzi) who attempts to drown Cecilia out of jealousy.
