What just happened?

Reviewed by chet19 4 / 10

Wait, so who are the bad guys?

So the magicians thought their son was a wimp. Not a crime. Bev Mole kidnapped the kid, but why she locks up her husband with a literal lock and chain in a closet is never explained. Charlie Lake should be about the same age as the missing Alex, but they hint at Charlie being abusive to the kid, as if it were an adult/kid abuse instead of two young classmates. The magicians originally thought the whining liar protagonist was gonna blackmail them. With what? "I know your son was afraid of tigers, so give me money"? A messy poorly written waste.

Conspiracy Thriller

Disappearance At Clifton Hill: Abby (Tuppence Middleton) returns to her home town on the death of her mother; against her sister's wishes she tries to keep the family motel running. Abby also has dark memories of the kidnapping of a boy she witnessed 25 years before. The problem is that Abby is a pathological liar so unsurprisingly the police and her sister are reluctant to believe this late report. Abby meets up with a local Conspiracy podcaster Walter (David Cronenberg) who believes that a local rich family were behind this and other disappearances. The supposed conspiracy also involves animal trainers. You will begin to question conflicting narratives as this tale unfolds. Some great scenes. we first encounter Cronenberg as he rises from a river pond beneath Niagara Falls, he's also a sort of mudlark diver. Directed/Co-Written by Albert Shin. On Netflix. 7/10.
