Then the two proceed to play cards. This turns out to be the basis for a study by Dr. Stevensen (Karen Gillan), a researcher who has, she says, developed a way to track souls into the afterlife. Her experiments bring her a stream of […]Read On »

SOFT & QUIET movie poster | ©2022 Momentum Pictures/Blumhouse/Shudder

Rating: R Stars: Stefanie Estes, Olivia Lucciardi, Dana Millican, Melissa Paulo, Eleanore Pienta, Cissy Ly, Jon Beavers, Jayden Leavitt, Shannon Mahoney, Rebekah Wiggins, Nina E. Jordan, Jovita Molina Writer: Beth de Araújo Director: Beth de Araújo Distributor: Momentum Pictures/Blumhouse/Shudder Release Date: November 4, 2022 For genuine, stomach-churning horror, Michael Myers, Pennywise the Clown, and the whole pantheon of the Cthulhu Mythos have nothing on the women of SOFT & QUIET. To be clear, kindergarten teacher Emily (Stefanie Estes) and her friends and acquaintances don’t have a single supernatural power between them. None of them are serial killers, part of a […]Read On »

Movie Review: GIRL AT THE WINDOW

GIRL AT THE WINDOW | ©2022 XYZ Films

Rating: R Stars: Radha Mitchell, Ella Newton, Vince Colosimo, Karis Oka, James Mackay, Andrew S. Gilbert, Sharon Johal, Lachie Millar, Jackson Gallagher Writers: Terrence Hammond and Nicolette Minster, story by Terrence Hammond Director: Mark Hartley Distributor: XYZ Films Release Date: November 4, 2022 Although there’s a maniac preying on young people in GIRL AT THE WINDOW, it’s not a slasher in the conventional sense. It’s more along the lines of a quasi-trapped young woman who knows there’s a serial killer next door, but can’t get anyone to believe her. The film begins strikingly, with adolescent Lian (Karis Oka). Lian is […]Read On »

DEMONS AT DAWN movie poster | ©2022 Black Coppice Films Ltd.

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Ben Silver, Amber Doig-Thorne, Amanda Himsworth, Chris Sanders, Crystal J. Huang, Jimmy “The Bee” Bennett, Jon-Paul Gates, John Altman, Michael Della Pia Writer: Chris Sanders Director: Randy Kent Distributor: Black Coppice Films Ltd. Release Date: October 28, 2022 DEMONS AT DAWN bears a passing kinship with 2012’s THE KILL LIST. Both movies feature working-class English hit men who take on jobs that put them in some very strange – indeed, supernatural – situations. THE KILL LIST had terrifically naturalistic dialogue and performances, but let the audience get a little too far ahead of the plot. DEMONS […]Read On »

Movie Review: CALL JANE

CALL JANE | ©2022 Roadside Attractions

Rating: R Stars: Elizabeth Banks, Sigourney Weaver, Chris Messina, Kate Mara, Wunmi Mosaku, Cory Michael Smith, Grace Edwards, John Magaro Writers: Hayley Schore & Roshan Sethi Director: Phyllis Nagy Distributor: Roadside Attractions Release Date: October 28, 2022 In CALL JANE, Jane turns out not to be a person. Instead, the Jane Collective is the group name of women who helped other women get abortion services from the mid-‘60s through 1972. We start out in Chicago in 1968, where protesters are getting loud outside the Democratic National Convention. Joy Griffin (Elizabeth Banks) is curious, but has more immediate concerns as wife, […]Read On »

Movie Review: THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN

THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN | ©2022 Searchlight Pictures

Rating: R Stars: Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Kerry Condon, Barry Keoghan, Pat Shortt, Gary Lydon Writer: Martin McDonagh Director: Martin McDonagh Distributor: Searchlight Pictures Release Date: October 21, 2022 THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN is a dark but oddly warm comic tragedy. Set in 1923 on a small island of the coast of Ireland, it features the kinds of eccentric, sharply-drawn characters we’ve come to expect from writer/director Martin McDonagh. It should be noted, for those who care, that there are no actual banshees in THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN. There are ill portents, to be sure, some death, and some blasts […]Read On »

Movie Review: OLD MAN

OLD MAN | ©2022 RLJEFilms

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Stephen Lang, Marc Senter, Liana Wright-Mark, Patch Darragh Writer: Joel Veach Director: Lucky McKee Distributor: RLJE Films Release Date: October 14, 2022 As we see from the evocative painting by Vanessa McKee under the opening credits, OLD MAN is set in an isolated cabin in the woods. Stephen Lang plays the old man of the title. He is sleeping alone in the cabin’s worn-looking bed when we meet him, wearing orange long johns that suggest a prison jumpsuit. He wakes up with a start, then begins searching for his missing dog, Rascal, who he accuses of […]Read On »
