Back in 2019, viewers went through a gambit of emotions, mostly disgust and confusion, after watching the documentary Abducted in Plain Sight which explored the real-life story of Jan Broberg. Now, Broberg’s story has inspired the new limited Peacock series, “A Friend of the Family,” from showrunner, writer, and executive producer Nick Antosca (Brand New Cherry Flavor, The Act, Channel Zero) The series will walk us through the shocking relationship between the Broberg family and the man who kidnapped Jan not once, but twice. . “It’s easy to judge the Broberg family’s story from the outside. Sometimes when people first hear it, they get defensive: ‘How could these parents have let this happen? I’m not like them,’ Nick Antosca said in a statement. “That’s understandable. It’s a surreal story. When I first heard it, I empathized with the family’s vulnerability, and I felt like I understood their story from the outside. But it stayed with me, and I wanted to

Movie Reviews: Mother Superior, Last Seen, and The Businessman (SLASH Film Festival)

Mother Superior (2022) Writer/director Marie Alice Wolfszahn’s Austrian horror thriller Mother Superior, set in 1975, finds anesthesiste-in-training Sigrun (Isabella Hӓndler) hired on as a nurse for elderly Baroness Heidenreich (Inge Maux). The baroness has been going through a series of nurses rather quickly, but Sigrun hopes to stay on longer than her predecessors. This has less to do with job security than it does with the fact that she hopes to find some clue about her own past. This being a horror film with mystery elements, the main setting is naturally an isolated rural mansion. Wolfszahn and cinematographer Gabriel Krajanek use this setting to full effect as Sigrun wanders through dark areas, including ones that she has been forbidden to enter. The beautifully sunlit grounds provide a sharp contrast to the dimly lit house. I don’t want to spoil the several shades of mystery at play in Mother Superior, so suffice it to say that the main characters — including
