However, he commits a grievous narrative sin only twenty minutes into the running time. […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Ayaka Miyoshi, Ryŏta Bandŏ, Renji Ishibashi, Rinka Ōtani, Masanobu Takashima, Reiko Takashima, Akira Sasamoto Writers: Daisuke Hosaka and Takashi Shimizu Director: Takashi Shimizu Distributor: Dread Release Date: August 13, 2021  HOWLING VILLAGE (INUNAKI MURA) is directed and co-written by Takashi Shimizu, who created the popular 2002 JU-ON: THE GRUDGE, which has spawned a franchise. JU-ON: THE GRUDGE was more than a little ambiguous, and misleadingly titled (it’s about rage, not a “grudge” as the term is used in English), but it fulfilled its main purpose in scaring the daylights out of viewers. Unfortunately, HOWLING VILLAGE has […]Read On »

Release Date: August 5, 2021 THE SUICIDE SQUAD is a surprisingly buoyant follow-up to 2016’s SUICIDE SQUAD. The earlier film gave us a batch of super-reluctant heroes, actually villains from D.C.

It’s set in 1983 Minnesota, and is both a fairly faithful recreation of and playful tweak of the era.
