The Serpent 2021


 Definitely not for the faint of heart. This is an 8 part series now on Netflix that is based on the true story of a human monster Charles Sobhraj who for years robbed and murdered young travelers in Asia, with the help of his girlfriend. This is a very minimal note on the plot. Set in the early 70's with twisty back and forths time lines I was very stressed out by the film. Very well done with great period touches especially in the clothes and the small details along with two standout performances by Tahar Rahim and Jenna Coleman. Most of the violence is not shown but its still not an easy watch so be warned. Was it good? Hell yes.
