The director’s first Hollywood film in twenty years makes it clear that he hasn’t lost his touch, but a stronger (or at least more interesting) foundation to launch his signature style on might have made for a more satisfying comeback.

Disney’s Wish plays all the hits and ends up showcasing both the best and worst of what the studio’s storytelling is all about.

David Fincher brings his usual style to a smart and surprisingly funny tale of a professional hitman dealing with a job gone wrong.

There are certain moments from the original The Conjuring that have stuck with me for a decade and counting. I’d be surprised if I remember anything from The Nun II within the next couple of weeks.

You get the best of both worlds with Denzel Washington’s supposed final performance as this character, and for those that have enjoyed McCall’s violently cathartic journey, The Equalizer 3 is here to please.

There’s a brief novelty to the bloody spectacle that Øvredal’s latest provides and an admirably morbid approach to the entire affair, but this supposed final voyage feels considerably thin by its end.

Flies by with thrilling energy, plenty of nightmare fuel, and inventive ways that make the very tired possession subgenre come alive again.

It’s a film suffering from an identity crisis, ditching the whimsical tone of the more family-friendly Bumblebee (a great movie, for the record) in favor of something that just ends up coming across as Michael Bay with the edges sanded off. 

This sequel to the surprise 2018 animated hit does more than simply surpass the original, it tells a nearly perfect Spider-Man story.

There’s not much that’s new here but there’s plenty to have fun with and get spooked by. You’ll at least learn that you should always take your kids seriously if both of them start talking about nightly attacks from a demonic grief monster. You definitely don’t want one of those in your house.

I wouldn’t say I enjoyed this film but I was definitely affected by it. It successfully terrified me and has been bothering my brain ever since.

Part horror, part black comedy, part hero’s journey, and all mommy issues, Beau is Afraid is a surreal nightmare come to life; the kind of movie where, whether you love it or hate it, you won’t be able to stop thinking about it.

Buying a ticket for this movie will probably get you placed on some kind of government watchlist, which might go double for me since I’m about to eagerly insist that you go see it.

A comedic and splatter-filled take on Dracula’s infamous assistant or the Pope’s personal exorcist fighting a demon-possessed little boy?

In what I hope becomes the surprise box office hit of this spring, the Dungeons & Dragons movie makes clever use of the IP it’s been given and makes an adventure comedy that’s accessible to pretty much anyone.

Each new John Wick movie has begged the question: How are they going to top this? But this time around, it really just doesn’t seem possible anymore.

We’re gonna talk about the latest films from a pair of visionary directors, David Cronenberg and M. Night Shyamalan. Infinity Pool and Knock at the Cabin were decent hits when they were released in theaters this year and are now available on digital. There’s certainly a good bit to go over, as both are tackling some rather deep themes with their own distinct styles to varying degrees of success. Also, we’ll talk about Cocaine Bear.

For those willing to sink down into the unnerving depths of Skinamarink’s house of horrors (or those unable to escape its grasp as it drags you under) you’ll be completely transported.

M3GAN is a hoot and a stellar example of how to create an instantly iconic character. Here’s hoping that the sequel can really run wild with the premise, as this first film feels just a bit too tame.

Johnson has traded out box office cash for streaming revenue in a Netflix-exclusive sequel that both improves on its predecessor yet also falls short in different ways.
