A ★★★½ review of Get Out (2017)

This was my first time watching Get Out, and I have to say I really enjoyed it! I’m going to skip over the obvious social commentary and racial undertones — they’re clear, effective, and handled brill...

A ★ review of Spinal Tap II: The End Continues (2025)

I present another entry on the ever-growing list of films that didn’t need a sequel. This time, Spinal Tap are reunited due to an outstanding clause in an old contract, forcing them to play one final ...

A ★★★½ review of ...And Justice for All (1979)

This was a great film! I stumbled across it while channel surfing, and when I saw Al Pacino’s name, I decided to pause and give it a few minutes — and sometimes that’s how you discover something truly...

A ★★★ review of Eddington (2025)

Ari Aster’s Eddington is a fascinating and unsettling exploration of America during one of its most volatile moments. Set in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, the film channels the tensions of ...

A ★½ review of Until Dawn (2025)

I’ve never played the Until Dawn game, so I can’t say how faithful this movie is to the source material. But if it is accurate, then all I can say is—the game must be seriously messed up. As for the f...

A ★★½ review of The Woman in Cabin 10 (2025)

A ½ review of Ed Kemper (2025)

I’ll keep this short — this was one of the worst films I’ve seen in quite some time. Which is a real shame, because the subject matter had real potential. The story of Ed Kemper could have offered a f...

Hell of a Summer is marketed as a “horror comedy,” but in reality it struggles to deliver on either front. If comedy here simply means assembling a group of insufferable characters, giving them cliché...
