In CARNIVAL ROW, now in its second and final season on Prime Video, the Fae are rebelling against their human oppressors in the eighteenth-century-Europe-like Burgue.

What nobody except Jonah and Sophie know is that the two of them are in league together.

Prime Video’s series CARNIVAL ROW premieres its ten-episode second and final season on February 17. The show debuted in August of 2019, and was promptly picked up for a second, but COVID delayed production so much that it’s just coming out now. In CARNIVAL ROW, a war of acquisition between rival human nations in the Faerie homeland has caused Faeries to flee for safety to the human realm of the Burgue, which resembles Victorian England. Here, Fae are treated as second-class citizens. “Carnival Row” is the name given to the Fae district within the Burge. Among the refugees is the […]Read On »

ATTACHMENT movie poster | ©2023 Shudder

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Josephine Park, Ellie Kendrick, Sofie Gråbøl, David Dencik Writer: Gabriel Bier Gislason Director: Gabriel Bier Gislason Distributor: Shudder Release Date: February 9, 2023 (Shudder) From movies like THE EXORCIST to THE CONJURING franchise to this week’s release CONSECRATION, Catholicism still gets the lion’s share of horror movie attention. However, with 2012’s THE POSSESSION, 2021’s THE VIGIL, and this year’s THE OFFERING, among others, Jewish lore is getting some screen time, too. ATTACHMENT (NATTEN HAR BJINE), directed and written by Gabriel Bier Gislason, is the newest entry in this horror subgenre. It’s a slow burn, but a […]Read On »

Movie Review: SKINAMARINK

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Lucas Paul, Dali Rose Tetreault, Ross Paul, Jaime Hill Writer: Kyle Edward Ball Director: Kyle Edward Ball Distributor: IFC Midnight/Shudder Release Date: January 13, 2023 (theatrical); February 2, 2023 (Shudder) Evaluating SKINAMARINK properly probably requires someone far better versed than this reviewer is in experimental cinema, and/or slow cinema. There is indeed a genre known as slow cinema, which is pretty much what it sounds like. There are static shots; there is repetition; plots are sketchy, if they exist at all. This is intentional, to put the viewer in a state where they can experience the […]Read On »
