In a Violent Nature (2024)
This is this year's Skinamarink
This is an unspeakably bad film. You will remember none of the characters and only one of the deaths. I don't know how it has such a high Rotten Tomato score because it is the most boring uninspired film I've seen since Skinamarink. (When did we get to a place where such a film could receive this kind of critical acclaim?) I was so mad about seeing this in a theater and it actually inspired discussion amongst strangers as to how bad this film was. The film should be retitled "How I watched a forgettable boogey man trudge around outside a cabin while I was bored to tears" I would not watch this again in my life even if it was free.
The Sacrifice Game (2023)
I really enjoyed this film!
This is the Christmas Horror movie we've all been looking for this year!! It's well directed, well acted, and I loved the kills. Without giving too much away I loved the Manson-esque gang and I really loved the cat and mouse element to it; it interesting how you think the movie is going to be one thing and then it sort of becomes another. I think this is destined to become a horror Christmas Classic in the same way I love Black Christmas, Rare Exports, Silent Night Deadly Night, and Christmas Bloody Christmas!! I also really enjoyed the writer/director's last film The Ranger! This kind of film is the reason I have Shudder!
KillHer (2022)
Super fun Horror Comedy
I thought this was a terrific slasher comedy. It's actually quite difficult to get horror comedy right but this film does it so well. It is paced perfectly and the ending is something you'll be cheering for in terms of the gore and fun. When you think of really good horror comedy a couple of titles come to mind. Shaun of the Dead, Tucker and Dale Vs. Evil, and of course Evil Dead 2. I'm happy to report that this is definitely in the same family. I think you can rent or buy it at present but I can tell you this is definitely worth buying because you will watch it again and again with different friends. (It's one of those kinds of movies that you will love helping friends discover like What we Do in Shadows for example)
Los delincuentes (2023)
This is literally the worst movie of the year
I can't believe I wasted 3 hours of my time in the theater with this piece of you know what. Learn to tell a story and learn to edit a film you horrible horrible director. I think you were a genius for hiring a publicist and a producer that some how got you into Cannes and Tiff, but you should feel so much shame for wasting my time, my girlfriend's time and everyone who paid money at the Laemmle Royale tonight. I literally hope you never get a chance to make another film for having wasted 3 hours of my time. For the love of god steer clear of this self indulgent 3 hour debacle. It really is the worst movie of the year.
Pay the Lady (2023)
Sexy and Twisty
This film was unexpectedly good. You never know what you're going to get with some of these urban thrillers. I mean it's more of noir than straight up thriller. It was sexy, well acted, and Lauryn Ford seems to be a star in the making. The other cast was also excellent with Maurice Whitfield playing the menacing heavy and Dushaun Thompson playing his clever lieutenant. There is also some fun comic relief in the film with Missira Ross, David Jia, and Robert Dobson adding some nice levity to a pretty intense film. If the credits are to be believed there will another one. I'd go on this ride again.
