The Book of Birdie was a big surprise with wonderful visuals and stellar performances. Highly recommended.
Halloween is a welcome return to a long dead series with some inventive kills and Michael Myers at his menacing best.
“Look - you fools! You’re in danger - can’t you see? They’re after you, they’re after all of us! Our wives, our children - everyone! They’re here already! You’re next!”
John Boorman's ultra stylish and dreamlike sequel to William Friedkin's classic trendsetter horror film is not nearly as in-your-face horrific or "scary" as its predecessor.
Sleep No More is in the vein of horror films like Flatliners, Pathology, and Anatomy where the scientists take it upon themselves to become the lab rats for their own experiments, resulting in terror.
Beautiful Boy is a dark and serious movie about addiction, so the casual viewer may not want to watch this movie, but it's worth seeing for the performances alone.
A bona fide cult classic, Killer Klowns lives and dies by its incredibly rad looking make-up and special effects by the brothers Chiodo Brothers (director Stephen and his collaborators Charles and Edward).
The Hate U Give is an intense rollercoaster with a very current story and fantastic performances. It won't be for everyone but it's worth seeing at least once.
Competently made with some nice looking battle scenes and explosions, Occupation is much too similar in way too many ways to the T.V. series Falling Skies to get big points from me, but fans of alien apocalypse movies might like it for the same reasons they enjoy others of the same ilk.
The film runs a little too long, but it’s a gem of a movie. Gruner was never better.
