"Black Mirror" Season 6, Episode 5: "Demon '79"

In "Demon '79," Vasan stars as a shop girl in 1970s Britain, where she constantly has to deal with racism from her boss, coworkers, and pretty much everyone around her. In the basement, she accidentally wakes up and becomes bonded to a demon (played by Essiedu) who tells her she has to kill three people or the world will end. Things get more complicated as she and the demon argue and try to carry out their plan, and Vasan and Essiedu have great chemistry together. While not necessarily ground-breaking, "Demon '79" is an enjoyable "Black Mirror" instalment with a "Lucifer" vibe and just enough weirdness to keep you on your toes. — VE
