Rating: R Stars: Lily Sullivan, Alyssa Sutherland, Gabrielle Echols, Morgan Davies, Nell Fisher Writer: Lee Cronin Director: Lee Cronin Distributor: Warner Bros./New Line Cinema Release Date: April 21, 2023 EVIL DEAD RISE checks most of of boxes that are necessary for it to be a real EVIL DEAD movie. It’s got those speeding, low to the ground traveling shots that speak to the movement of evil. It’s got people who wind up covered head to toe in blood. It’s even got a cabin in the woods, although this one is an A-frame, and we don’t spend long there. In fact, […]Read On »

TO CATCH A KILLER | ©2023 Vertical Entertainment

Rating: R Stars: Shailene Woodley, Ben Mendelsohn, Jovan Adepo, Ralph Ineson, Michael Cram, Rosemary Dunsmore Writers: Damian Szifron & Jonathan Wakeham Director: Damian Szifron Distributor: Vertical Entertainment Release Date: April 21, 2023 TO CATCH A KILLER is a thriller that focuses steadily and pleasingly on procedure. We actually feel like we’re learning something, even as the story goes through some inevitable turns. On New Year’s Eve in Baltimore, people are out celebrating. There are fireworks – and gunshots mixed in with the fireworks as a very accurate mass shooter targets and kills twenty-nine people. All police are called in to […]Read On »

Stars: Nicholas Hoult, Nicolas Cage, Awkwafina, Ben Schwartz, Shohreh Agdashloo, Brandon Scott Jones, Adrian Martinez Writer: Ryan Ridley, story by Robert Kirkman Director: Chris McKay Distributor: Universal Release Date: April 14, 2023 There have been innumerable takes on Dracula and those who surround him. In many versions of the tale, including Bram Stoker’s original novel, Dracula’s primary henchman is Renfield. RENFIELD, told from that character’s point of view, omits his time in the lunatic asylum and instead has him as Dracula’s (Nicolas Cage) primary facilitator, arranging for things like meals (i.e., murder victims), lodging, and transportation. In return, Renfield (Nicholas […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Thomas Parigi, Edwige Blondiau, Lou Lampros, Jean-Louis Coiulloc’h, Romain Laguna, Georges Isnard, Sivan Garavagno, Jean-Marc Ravera Writers: Lucas Delangle & Olivier Strauss Director: Lucas Delangle Distributor: Dark Star Pictures Release Date: April 7, 2023 (theatrical); April 11, 2023 (digital) THE STRANGE CASE OF JACKY CAILLOU plays out as a modern folktale. It is something of a strange case of its own, taking what turns out to be a familiar horror genre and making it something that definitely has supernatural elements and jeopardy, but isn’t really horror. Thomas “Jacky” Caillou (Thomas Parigi) is a young man who […]Read On »

Likewise, pretty much everybody knows that Nike makes the shoe, and that it is the namesake of basketball great Michael Jordan. All of this makes it a pleasant surprise that AIR, the dramatized story of how Nike got into business with […]Read On »
