Black Mirror: Demon 79
by Charlie Brooker & Bisha K. Ali; dir. Toby Haynes (Netflix, 2003)
Gloriously dark yet laugh-out-loud funny, even while tackling such topics as racial prejudice (in Britain immediately post- the Winter of Discontent), just murder, and Fight Club–reminiscent mental imbalance. Anjana Vasan, Paapa Essiedu and Shaun Dooley bring impressive truth to their characters.
