Watchlist:

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog is a 42-minute tragicomic musical in three acts, each released separately. It tells the story of Dr. Horrible, an aspiring supervillain, Captain Hammer, his superhero nemesis, and Penny, their mutual love interest. The movie was written by writer/director Joss Whedon, his brothers Zack Whedon and Jed Whedon, and Jed's then fiancée, actress Maurissa Tancharoen. The writing team penned the musical during the WGA strike. The idea was to create something small and inexpensive, yet professionally done, in a way that would circumvent the issues that were being protested during the strike.

Why you might like this:

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, directed by Joss Whedon in 2008, is a delightfully offbeat musical that blends comedy, drama, and science fiction. Featuring standout performances from Neil Patrick Harris, Nathan Fillion, and Felicia Day, this tragicomic tale of a supervillain, his nemesis, and their shared love interest offers a unique and thoroughly engaging viewing experience that will particularly resonate with fans of Whedon's signature style and genre-blending storytelling.
