Teen Wolf TV series

Image
  Teen Drama. Story of werewolves (alpha, beta and the outsiders) as well as the other characters that come into play from a banshee to a coyote to chimera to kanimas. This TV series is loosely built on the 1985 movie that I watched as a kid and completely was in love with the movie. This TV series is full of supernatural heroes and villains is great for someone who loves to watch this genre of fantasy and myth.  Also it took me back to my early years when I binge watched this movie again and again with my childhood friends. I learnt about new characters that I never knew existed. So for me there were many things I learnt like kanima, banshee and kitsune! Kitsune led me to watch Tail of the Nine Tailed….so yes I’ve been in a loop of watching and researching on different characters post this TV series. 

From Dusk till Dawn

Screenplay of Quentin Tarrantino. This is the new version of ‘From Dusk till Dawn’. Mythological fantasy based story on who controls the power and how does a Human turned Goddess finds her power back. It takes sometime to enjoy this series but is watchable. I am yet to watch the older version. When I do will share my two bits on the same. 

The Gift - Turkish TV

Turkish TV Series 'Atiye' which means 'The Gift'. Mystery mythological saga based on the famous archeological site Gobleki Tepe. This TV series takes you through a journey of a young female artist who has connections unknowingly to the hidden secrets of the world. The mystery unfolds and the moment you think you’ve got the hang of it, it changes its course. Something to really watch. Incase you're also interested in multiverse this is a tv series for you. The entire production is flawless.

Tale of the Nine Tailed

During my time of isolation I binged watched many TV series that had been on my list. One of them was ... Tale of the Nine Tailed. South Korean TV Series based on the mythical character of South Korea ‘Nine Tailed Red Fox’. The TV series is in its original language i.e. Korean and has English subtitles (for people like me). Beautifully scripted and well directed. This TV series is a love saga between a fox and a human, with multitude of layers with complicated relationships and situations. Acting is also great. I would highly recommend to watch this incase people want a different flavor of film production. PS - a lot of my paintings are based on mythology and folklore. Many of my inspirations come from travel, books, documentaries, docu series and tv series. Any form of story helps in creating my work based on my interpretation.
