True, KRAKEN does have a sonic transducer as part of its plot, but no one mentions or even hums a bar from THE […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Alice Eve, Eric Michael Cole, Elle Haymond, Sarah Siadat, Johnny Gaffney, Lisa Yaro, Jim Klock, Vince Jolivette, Stephen Oliver Writers: Jonathan Zuck and Joe Leone, story by Dick Grunert and Ryan R. Johnson and James Kondelik Director: Jonathan Zuck Distributor: IFC Release Date: June 5, 2026 CHUM is the latest entry in the shark-obsessed-psycho-with-a-boat subgenre. It also meshes, perhaps coincidentally, with the 2024 sharks-but-no-psycho-ruin-a-Mediterranean-destination-wedding SOMETHING IN THE WATER. Our narrator is Roy (Jim Klock) who, in the opening sequence, loses his wife to an enormous Great White in the sea off Malta. He begins by saying […]Read On »

Movie Review: BACKROOMS

BACKROOMS movie poster | ©2026 A24

Rating: R Stars: Chiwetel Ejiofor, Renate Reinsve, Mark Duplass, Finn Bennett, Lukita Maxwell Writer: Will Soodik, based on the YouTube series by Kane Parsons Director: Kane Parsons Distributor: A24 Release Date: May 29, 2026 While it was made now (2025-2026), BACKROOMS is reminiscent of choose-your-own-interpretation science-fiction films that were most prevalent in the 1960s and 1970s. Splitting the difference, BACKROOMS is set in June 1990 in Santa Clara, California (just north of Los Angeles County). Then as now, it’s a relatively quiet area. The film starts as with video cam footage shot by an uneasy man. He’s making his way […]Read On »
