The Exorcism of God (2021) is the funniest exorcist movie since Repossessed. It’s hard to believe that no one involved in it realized they were making a comedy.

By refusing to elevate "change" as automatically superior to "stagnation," In Transit resists the typical, glossy "coming-of-age" or "follow your dreams" narrative trope.

I’m bummed that, in a film top-heavy with exposition, they never find the time to explain when and how a fish was sainted.

Goldmine (2026) has good intentions, but I’m not sure it fully understands that euthanasia is like sex — it’s much better when it’s consensual.

Just because something is possible doesn’t mean it’s advisable — like this family-oriented, upbeat, high-altitude collision of Rocky III grit and snowboarding melodrama.

Why anyone thought this stuff would make for a good movie, or a good documentary, or a good movie about a documentary, I haven’t the foggiest.

YouthMin (2018) is nominally a mockumentary, although not a very good one. You can’t parody or satirize a subject that you do not know.

Awoken deserves credit for bringing attention to a rare condition, but its execution illustrates the difficulty of marrying serious medical drama to formulaic possession tropes.

Project X (1987) is a very dumb movie about chimpanzees that are just a bit too smart.

The Jack in the Box: Awakening (2022) is an example of how independent genre films strive to improve monster mechanics through gothic myth-building.

One Night Only (2026) is a sex-based parody of The Purge that only succeeds in making The Purge seem plausible by comparison.

The irony of High Lane is that its early scenes show a keen eye for climbing, yet that same precision is absent when it comes to the human beings holding the ropes.

More cerebral than heady, They Shot the Piano Player is serious as a heart attack, and it will test how high and how long your brow and your attention span are, respectively.

Undertone uses ancient folklore to police female independence. It fails because the real-life horror it exposes is its own retrograde, patriarchal worldview.

You don’t need a diploma in medieval law to understand why a guy shoots an arrow at a greedy tax collector.
