This post contains spoilers from The Waterfront season 1 episode 3 from this point forward.

The fiery cliffhanger from episode 2 continues as The Waterfront season 1 episode 3 picks up right were we left off, with Peyton being doused in gasoline and a match lighting a fire toward her. The man puts out the fire before it can reach her, but the threat of being burned alive, a threat that's for Cane, scares Peyton to her core. She's mad at Cane, for good reason, but he and Harlan are certain Owen (Sheriff Porter) was behind the attack.

Harlan pays the sheriff a visit, and he plays dumb, but he seems to show his cards when Harlan refuses to complete more runs until he meets Grady. As Peyton ices out Cane, Bree compares notes with Marcus to plot their next move in the case. Let's not forget about the other cliffhanger that was dropped in...

Grindhouse type fare is a lost art. Whether it’s a horror effort or a thriller, being grim, gritty, and even gross is something that small scale filmmakers used to pursue to a far greater extent. Obviously, Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino tried to recapture the glory with the literal titled Grindhouse, but there hasn’t been a real resurgence. To be sure, it’s hard to do this well, as multiple attempts to remake something like I Spit On Your Grave has proven. Ravage, however, manages to do more right than it does wrong. Unyieldingly intense, it somehow also reminds one of something like Kevin Smith’s Tusk (you’ll understand if/when you see it), which is a rare achievement. This won’t be for most, but if you go in for this kind of genre fare, it’s an interesting new offering. The film is a thriller,...
