2024 IS HERE! Recaps With Mae is BACK!

Did y'all miss me? Because I definitely missed y'all!

2023 I was all over the place and so busy chasing views on TikTok that doing film and tv reviews began to overwhelm me and feel like work. I tried a few gimmicks to get views but ultimately my content began to suffer, and I just didn't wanna do it anymore. 

Starting in January my best friend, Neecey, and I started a podcast that was so fun, but came with many challenges.  We consistently got together every week for anywhere from an hour and a half to two hours to talk about our favorite horror movies. From January to September we covered the entire Scream and Child's Play franchise, the phenomenal Swarm series, Tales From the Hood, the original CandyMan from 1992 and its remake from 2021. 

WHEW! 

We stayed consistent even though life started life-ing, but ultimately we had to take a hiatus when we both got new jobs working overnights. We plan on getting back to the podcast since we have since gotten momentum on our Facebook page and YouTube Channel titled Horror Talks w Neecey and Mae. If you have some free time on your hands you should check out our channel, there's enough to binge-watch.


Now at this point you're probably wondering what content I've been creating for RecapsWithMae? Well, I've still been watching hella movies and tv shows (without the pressure to immediately write down my thoughts and getting videos out as quickly as possible to get views), I've even spent a chunk of my time revisiting old movie franchises that made me remember the good and the bad moments.

This year I will just be covering no more than 3 films and 1 tv series per month. I think this will give me a chance to fully digest what I'm watching so I can give y'all a better review.

This month I am really excited to give y'all my opinion on two releases in January. The first is Night Swim and the second is The Book of Clarence. Raising Kanan is about halfway thru season 3 so I may do an overall recap and review of the season, but I can tell you right now I AM HOT ABOUT them killing off Unique. I may actually do a separate blog post about that before the season ends, that's how hurt I am!

Thank you to everyone who has been patient with me, while I figure out where RecapsWithMae fits into my changing schedule. Please give @recapswith_mae a follow on all social media platforms....it really helps my tiny platform grow.

REVIEW-Monogamish(2023)

Image
HAPPY NEW YEAR Y'ALL!! I’m so excited for all the new movies that are to come this year. With that being said, I wanted to let you all know about the very first independent film I watched on Tubi called Monogamish. Synopsis: Zane a successful real-estate broker, is asked by her husband if they could see other people and help their marriage succeed. What I liked:  As expected the production quality was good, acting was a little stale at times, but the cast exceeded my overall expectations. I loved the cinematography of this film, especially the aerial shots of the city. This film was directed and written by Marquand Ragland. Monogamish was my introduction to this North Carolina based director, and I must say he did a good job. Monogamish was a breath of fresh air as my first review of the year. Of course this film had its share of betrayal and backstabbing, but it was written very well and tastefully. What needed work:  Although I thought Zane's character was very relatable, I f

Review-NIGHT SWIM(2024)

Yesterday I got the chance to watch the new supernatural horror/thriller called Night Swim, but by the time the film revealed its main plot point, it had NOTHING to do with night or swimming. Night Swim was brought to us by the producers behind M3GAN and The Nun, which were also very underwhelming and overrated. Blumhouse is the company behind this, so my interest was peaked. I thought this film had great potential because it had two elements that scared the shit out of me….Water and The Dark. Can yall believe at my big grown age of 35 I can’t swim and am still afraid of the dark lol. In the cold opening of this film, we see a little girl who looks to be about eight or nine, she’s looking for a toy boat in the pool. She goes to reach for it, and I already knew she was going somehow to fall in, which she did. I wasn’t sure where they were going with this, but after her being pulled in and we get the title card, I knew they’d eventually circle back at some point.   After the title card w
