After 25 years the doors have opened again. The first name in Danish filmmaking and the bad boy of avant-garde arthouse cinema returns to the television series he originally concluded in 1997, now with a final third season.

When you go home do you look around and wonder, ‘Who are these people, where did I even come from?’” Claudia Larson, as played by Holly Hunter, wonders. “I mean, you look at them all sitting there, you know… they look familiar, but who the hell are they?”

"When all the clouds darken up the skyway, there's a rainbow highway to be found." And when Thanksgiving is done, and even the leftovers are picked clean, there's still a way to entertain your family. Over 80 years later, MGM's adaption of L.

In his 2014 dark satire “Force Majeure” the gleefully cynical observer of modernity Ruben Östlund showed us you never know who you are — or who you’re married to — until disaster strikes.

Of course, horror is just fiction, right?
