TRUE DETECTIVE- NIGHT COUNTRY

When eight men from a remote Alaskan research station vanish at the start of the polar night, Police chief Liz Danvers (Jodie Foster) is called in to investigate. Joined by offsider Evangeline Navarro (former world boxing champion Kali Reis) their tumultuous relationship adds tension to an already uneasy vibe. There’s horror, mystery, mysticism, corruption and a hostile environment which isn’t for the faint hearted. Reis excels as Navarro, while Fosters character of Danvers does herself no favours with her brash attitude. Has a few plot holes in the final episode but maintains interest overall. Rug up!
