Typewriter Now Streaming on Netflix in India

Midway through the fifth and final episode of Netflix's newest Indian original series Typewriter, a character notes that a blood moon has risen in the sky, as the visuals depict the very thing.

If it wasn't annoying enough in itself for flouting the “show, don't tell” rule, it's made much more so by the fact that the blood-moon bit is brought up ad nauseam on Typewriter, with nearly every character noting how it's crucial to the supernatural villain's plan. Long before this nth occurrence crudely hammers home that point, you'll want to bang your head against the wall.

Unfortunately, that's far from the only problem with Sujoy Ghosh's (Kahaani) horror series, which he directed in full and wrote in part.
