    Also, there was another good mini series on Netflix and I can't remember what it's called, but about a Russian mole inside the CIA.
    Thank you for the suggestion, I've added that show to my que.

    Yes, I can. It's a difficult topic to broach within forum rules, so allow me some time to gather my thoughts and then I'll give you a proper response.

    Feel free to respond to me privately. I'm working on a master's degree in counseling and enjoy hearing other people's perspectives.

    The movie was actually inspired by Creature from the Black Lagoon.

    Aye and won best picture and director.

    I'm all up for 'out there' movies but this was ridiculous imo.

    I tried to enjoy it as it won the Oscar and Del Toro but I couldn't, casting from Boardwalk Emipre made it even stranger.

    I thought it was fantastic.

But it really told the story of lonely creatures finding humanity in an unlikely place when surrounded by the inhuman and inhumane.
