• Resurrect Dead: The Mystery of the Toynbee Tiles - I actually saw this movie before it came to Netflix, and really enjoyed it. It's a mystery doc, and the main character is a likeable nerd who really, really wants to solve this mystery. Without going into too much detail, it's about mysterious tiles with cryptic messages, that have been found on the streets of the USA & South America.

Can you go into a little more detail on this one (you can label spoilers if you have to)? Like did he find/figure out anything? I've read about the tiles before, but not too much is really known about their origin or meaning. I'd hate to watch a doc for an hour and a half and get nothing out of it.

Also, here is the trailer for the Insects one: LINK /

At one point, it mentions "day 17." That's a long fricking time to not eat.

SPOILERS



























The main character does indeed single in on a single suspect, a reclusive man, that refuses to speak with him. The evidence is pretty strong it's him. The film does a good job of documenting each discovery, including how the tiles were placed, as they get closer to finding out who's responsible. I think you'll definitely come away knowing more than before. Also, you can really tell that the main character is genuinely infatuated with this mystery. Nerd excitement is evident
