Rating: R Stars: Terrence Howard, Esai Morales, Nicky Whelan, Alec Baldwin, Reema Sampat, Madonna Akhtar Writer: Rich Ronat Director: RJ Collins Distributor: Lionsgate Release Date: August 16, 2024 (theatrical, digital, VOD) The title of CRESCENT CITY turns out to be like that of CHINATOWN – it’s not where the action is set, just the site of a significant event in the lives of several characters. (The film has nothing to do with either New Orleans or the fantasy book series with that name.) Instead, we are mostly in Little Rock, AR, where a serial killer is leaving mannequin heads next […]Read On »
