So this was *very* good. Self-contained prequel to Friday the 13th, i.e. Jason's origin story. Tense, gory and a bit melodramatic, but top shelf if #horror is your jam.
And they did a spectacular job with the production design and the costumes, bringing 1972 to life extremely well. Lots of era-appropriate cultural references.
Kind of a special, unique vibe.

Crystal Lake
Single mother Pam Voorhees has been unable to shake her grief after her young, sickly son Jason tragically drowned in the town lake almost a year before. When two strangers arrive at Pam's door digging into her past, a disturbing chain of events is set into motion, leaving the townspeople of Crystal Lake wondering: just who is Pam Voorhees?

Just finished reading Frankenstein in Baghdad by Ahmed Saadawi. The novel was translated into English by Jonathan Wright.
It's quite a read. It makes you think. Yes, about what we, US taxpayers, have wrought on other people around the world and how now it's coming home. About the nature of people and communities and what is evil and who is responsible for the harm done among ourselves.
It's also just a good story. I highly recommend it. I listened to the Libro.fm audiobook, which was read by Edoardo Ballerini & Kaleo Griffith quite effectively.
