theguardian.com
This gory, cliffhanger-packed video game adaptation is eight hours of mindless, blood-soaked zombie fun – just what you need to forget about 2022

The verdict on the #StrangerThings finale is out. Our lovely review from @jackseale is here, and I VERY much cannot wait to watch it. #StrangerThings4Vol2 .
theguardian.com
