A cinematic obsessive with the filmic palate of a starving raccoon, Rob London will watch pretty much anything once. With a mind like a steel trap, he's an endless fount of movie and TV trivia, borne from a misspent youth of watching monster movies on TV, perusing the sun-faded goods at the local video rental shop, and staining his fingers with ink from the Video Movie Guide. Areas of interest include science fiction, film noir, horror flicks, '70s disaster pictures, Bond movies, '90s action, giant robots, dinosaurs, super heroes, and the exuberantly schlocky output of Cannon Films. He also enjoys both Star Trek and Star Wars when they're good, and maybe even more when they're bad. As a Canadian, he also has a vested interest in Canadian movies and TV shows, especially the cheesier ones dubbed "Canuxploitation."

An expert on Marvel Comics, he has also written for the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe, and is a member of the Marvel Research Team. He can frequently be found pontificating on comic-book continuity or bemoaning the misfortunes of the Toronto Maple Leafs on his Twitter account.

This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.

Three years after it became a worldwide sleeper hit, Deadloch has returned for a second season of murder and mayhem. The Australian comedy murder mystery series will return next month, as Dulcie Collins (Kate Box) and Eddie Redcliffe (Madeleine Sami) are back on the case. The first trailer for the new season sees them headed to the rural north of the country, dealing with unfriendly crocodiles and even-unfriendlier locals.

In the trailer, small-town cop Collins and her friend, tough-talking detective Redcliffe, are headed from Tasmania, off Australia's southern coast, all the way up to Darwin in the north. It's a place of great natural beauty, but they're not there to sight-see: they're investigating the mysterious death of Redcliffe's old partner, Bushy. However, they soon find themselves sidetracked to the remote town of Barra Creek, where some unidentified human remains have been discovered. With the Northern Territory police busy searching for a pair of missing hikers, Collins and Redcliffe will have to dig into the mystery in Barra Creek, even as they deal with dueling tour operators, the hostile locals, and some enormous reptilian predators. Will they get to the bottom of it, or will they find themselves on the bottom of the river? You'll have to find out on March 20, when season 2 of Deadloch premieres on Prime Video.

Season 2 of Deadloch will premiere on Prime Video on March 20. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.
