Movie Review: DEAD LOVER

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Grace Glowicki, Ben Petrie, Leah Doz, Lowen Morrow Writers: Grace Glowicki & Ben Petrie Director: Grace Glowicki Distributor: Cartuna x DWECK Release Date: March 20, 2026 In an attempt to gauge relative response, this reviewer described what happens in DEAD LOVER to two separate individuals. They had identical reactions: “That’s the weirdest plot I’ve ever heard.” Even allowing for the possibility that these two folks don’t get out much and therefore have less basis for comparison, DEAD LOVER may be the most gonzonana riff on FRANKENSTEIN ever. The competition for that title includes THE ROCKY HORROR […]Read On »

Movie Review: JITTERS

R

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Daniel Jordan, Fabrizio Santino, Anto Sharp, Jessica Impiazzi, Chloe Hews, Boo Miller, Lauren Budd, Guillaume Rivaud, Linda-Jean Barry Writer: George Wilcox Director: Marc Zammit Distributor: Reel 2 Reel Films Release Date: March 17, 2026 (digital, U.S. and U.K.) Written by George Wilcox and directed by Mark Zammit, JITTERS seeks to combine a NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET type of horror with sci-fi (at least for now) tech, criminal procedural and human pathos. That’s a lot to juggle, and the movie isn’t always up to the tasks the filmmakers set for themselves. JITTERS revolves around a concept that, […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: Éanna Hardwicke, Steve Coogan, Peter McDonald, Jamie Beamish, Alice Lowe, Aoife Hinds, Oliver Coopersmith, Alex Murphy, Harriet Cains, Jack Hickey Writer: Paul Fraser Directors: Lisa Barros D’Sa & Glenn Leyburn Distributor: Vertigo Releasing Release Date: March 13, 2026 SAIPAN seems like an odd title for a fact-based drama about the Republic of Ireland National Football (that’s soccer for Americans) team. However, Saipan, capital of the now-U.S. territory of the North Mariana Islands in the Western Pacific, was the site of a 2002 pre-World Cup incident that one commentator likened to “the death of Princess Diana.” At […]Read On »

Rating: R Stars: Nina Kiri, Adam DiMarco, Michèle Duquet, Keana Lyn Basidas, Jeff Yung Writer: Ian Tuason Director: Ian Tuason Distributor: A24 Release Date: March 13, 2026 Viewers may not want to play classic lullabies backwards – or maybe even forwards – after watching UNDERTONE. This low-budget indie uses sound and suggestion, along with disturbing subtext, to create a cumulatively unnerving experience. Evie (Nina Kiri) is the caretaker for her extremely religious, bedridden and dying mother (Michèle Duquet). By the look of it, Evie is doing a good job, in that her mother is clean and comfortable. Evie stays home, […]Read On »
