An impressive piece of genre-work and an amazing debut film; Curry Barker is someone who’s going to change how horror is made.
A devastating tragedy told through the lens of love, Hamnet notes a high watermark for Chloé Zhao, and cements both Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal as generational talents.
A decade in the making, Stranger Things: S5 needed a little more time to turn itself around from the upside down.
Wicked: For Good is, as the title would suggest, pretty good. But there’s a reason they didn’t call it Wicked: For Better [and not just because that’s a stupid name].
It’s difficult to call something so crass “excellent”… but there’s simply no other way to describe this one.
Not the evolution I was hoping for, Weapons still shows some intriguing promise from the developing Zach Cregger.
Brilliant in isolated pieces, 28 Years Later should have stayed in the lab just a few months longer.
Not the most painful franchise I’ve delved into, but certainly not the best there is. More than anything else, these conjured mediocre reviews and lots of time playing on my phone.
Time for frights, fun, and spooky friends. Here’s something to keep them all entertained!
Weird mistakes, things left out, and bad humor didn’t kill the show, but they were noticeable.
