A new thriller directed by Guillem Morales, who has brought us two decent Spanish genre films in the past, Julia’s Eyes and The Uninvited Guest. It is admittedly a talky thriller where one woman approaches another with a proposition to kill her husband and spends most of the runtime thinking of the perfect plan. Both…

This jumped out at me today as the second highest rated horror movie of the year on Letterboxd's top ten list. I had no idea the film existed until then, so it immediately caught my attention and I had to fill in. I cried the first time when I realised it was from India, I cried the second time when I saw the running…

I really wasn't expecting such a shitfest, although I know that even A24 sometimes shoots off target when it comes to horror. The Eggers missed their first feature chance, but hopefully Robert will save the family reputation this year. There's no point in paying attention to The Front Room unless you want to see one…

The fact that there are fifty ratings hanging around at the moment, but no one has bothered to write a review, is a testament to how interesting this film is :D It's really hard to write anything about it. The Rosemary's Baby prequel that nobody asked for doesn't add anything new or interesting to the topic, it doesn…

Having Guillem Morales return from TV shows to movies after 14 long years is fine. yeah, but it could have been with something a little juicier. I found the first couple of minutes the most interesting, when real wasps are on the scene and it looks like we're going to get proper domestic madness, but then it switches…

A look into the hectic life of a mad bohemian artist, directed by the mad bohemian Johnny Depp. Only one scene – the one with Al Pacino – tells us something about Modigliani’s personality. And it is pleasing thanks to Pacino’s acting. But by that point, however, the film has long since put us off with its unbearable…

We have this highly praised erotic thriller out (7.5 from 7.5k people on IMDB is pretty overhyped for me, it's not that great), but it's worth seeing. The film sort of tries to follow Tarantino's style of being divided into six chapters that build on each other non-chronologically, but here I found that downright…

A respectable 7/10, but the hype that has been building up around Strange Darling on Twitter and TikTok for the past two months is (as usual) a bit detrimental to the viewing experience. It's a pleasantly raw thriller with a charismatic duo of heroes and a non-chronological narrative that doesn't really add much to…

The original was crueler and more distinctive, but it literally went all in for the brutal twist, leaving the believable character behaviour by the wayside. I understand that the resignation of the Danish heroes was deliberate for the film's message, but even to me at the time of its release, it struck me as a rather…
